Bike Show Season is upon us!

Here in the Northeast at least. We have the International Motorcycle Show in D.C in 3 weeks and the New York IMS in 4 weeks. My favorite, the Timonium show is February 10th to 12th and the MOTORAMA in Harrisburg is the week after that. What's on your radar?

International Motorcycle show is here January 6,7,8 at the International Centre. Hopefully some good deals to be had. I've got too many helmets and gloves as it is. Half of my closet is motorcycle gear, lol.

I've heard about the show in Canada. That's supposed to be a huge deal, eh? Have you been to it yet?

The international show should be the exact same show you get. They just go through most of the major Canadian cities, and then loop through the states.

Victoria B.C., Calgary Alberta, Winnipeg Manitoba, Toronto Ontario, Montreal Quebec, then through the east coast provinces and then it loops through the states.

Been to the supershow plenty of times.

Manufacturers, vintage machines, vendors, etc. It's all the same show.

I'll be going to the Timonium show, I'm about 30 min north of there. My friend and I are talking about getting a spot, but we will probably wait until next year when we have some bikes ready to sell and show

We have ours in Cleveland, Ohio at the end of January. I've worked at our Honda dealership for 12yrs and we usually end up working Honda's booth at the show. This year I will be going with friends and not working, its always fun to go down and see what new and coming from the factories. With it snowing badly for us around that time the show gets everybody in the can't-wait-for-spring mode.. Our show has gotten smaller over the years with not so many vendors attending.

I am about 4 hours from Harrisburg and DC. If any PA folks are going, how about a shout out? I think a Saturday is best for me.

I wasn't too impressed with the show this year. I didn't need any gear this time, so thats probably part of the reason why.

Wasn't really too impressed with the new bikes this year either; I'll take old and paid for over new and payments any day.
