Motorcycle Show @ Jacob Javits '07 Pics
 

The show is not bad this year. FYI it's upstairs, same as last year. There is a larger presence of major manufacturer displays this year. The show is more open spaced at the major mfgrs. There are of course the narrower strips of vendors, not too bad though.
Some things to check out. The funmover RV with 5(or 6) pullouts. 2 of which are to the garage, so the garage is like 15 feet wide! The BUB 350mph streamliner. The huge Jaguar V12 powered bike. Some radically customized metric cruisers. The moron stunt video vendors are down to about 3 but there is a larger number of custom sportbike vendors. Some of which are dead stock bikes with paint schemes on them to vomit on. There are a few of the 'biker build-off' stars there including Mat Hotch, Dave Perowitz(sp?) and the drunk man himself, Billy Lane. It seems chair massages and knockoff sunglasses are back in as well LOL! Oh yes, a major letdown... No Nicky Hayden MotoGP bike to be found. There is the 2007 CBR1000RR Repsol Edition in Nicky's 2006 graphic scheme tough :moocow:

Nice!! I'll snap some shots tomorrow and maybe buy something for my bike, if the prices arent outrageous.

I hate you, you're fired!

Well being my first time at the MC show i had a great time. I got to sit on alot of bikes, met my favorite chopper builder Matt Hotch, and after a night of drinking ran into billy lane at the ferry terminal. All in all a great time. Here are the pics i took.

Billy Lane isn't in jail?

I asked him how everything was going with that. He said its just gonna take a long time for that to work itself out. He was heading to hoboken last night around 10:30ish.

those two choppers a fuckin sweet!! Isn't the blue one the bike with that air ride suspension?

Definitely some nice custom harleys there this time around. Good to have seem the TPM folks. Midway point through the off season is definitely a good thing.
Getting new MotoGP leathers at the show was also fun

Billy lane is a LOSER.

I only stayed in that hell hole for around 30 minutes. I couldnt find the RENJ booth or the TPM booth.

Too many gangsters and twats for me, was fun though.

Fell in love with '07 GSXR 750

Thought it was a good show...not great. Like Sonny said, too many Ganstas.
Really digging the 07 Duc 695!! Also, dug my killer Meatball Hero at Manganaro's Hero-Boy with Tina, Rob & Hani.

Guess it was better to go on friday then, not too many of the wannabe idiots with their tech vests on:roll: wasnt too crowded either which is always good.

Tom

Haha, Nick, you make the best faces in pictures!

That's because "Nicky Hayden doesn't sell bikes"- obviously...
Lance

He said they were going to try for 400 MPH next year.:hail: :hail:

Cool pics. I couldn't make it this year. :(
