This is every year for Cleveland. The gear selection has always been shitty.

I did look at a lot of bikes and was nice to see triumph had a nice sized booth there this time.

Don't really care about gear selection. I don't have the $$$ for that anyway, . What I did care about last year was 3-4 manufactures not showing up to the show because of the economy, like suzuki.. aprillia... Bmw... triumph.... etc. I hated paying the money and not being able to sit on the bikes I wanted to.

Any absent from nyc tommy?

KTM and MV agusta, which is fine I cant afford those bikes anyway. Triumh is back which is nice, I dont think aprilia was there but the other big ones were. I was bummed because suzuki didnt bring that 1200cc kinda sport tourer, I wanted to give it a look. But they had space for a stretched blinged out busa

I'm going Saturday. Crazy, I know, driving all the way across the state in this shit. But I was already planning to drive home this weekend- before dad reminded me about the show. I had thought about hitting the DC show, but lost track of time.
