I was a little dissapointed this year to be honest, but i think it maybe the fact that i was seriousley shopping this year with money to burn, and last year i just got a new lid and wasnt really looking at stuff properly as it didnt interest me enough. But i just didnt think there were enough stands of "named" gear for sale this year jackets, leathers etc, dont get me wrong they were there and i got a few bits but last year i felt there was a lot more on offer!
Kawasaki dissapointed me big-time this year! not big enough for a start (exactly the same stand as last year) and no clothing unless you ordered it! Crying or Very sad

the stunt show was good, and other outdoor stuff.

It seemed this year if you didnt have a GSXR1000 a ZX6 or ZX10 or ya CBR's you were knacked for bike bits!

I bought from the show:
Leather Jacket
"Show" number plate.........for shows! Wink

he he
Rear indicator/numberplate bracket
Clear rear indicators
SP2 A/Stars Gloves
Green nuts and bolts for the whole bike
A/Stars Hoody
Disk Lock
Allen Keys
Plastic Tie straps
N Haga Artwork Picture
So close to a Kagayama Rep lid but no-one had my size.....gutted!

What did you think of the show this year Question

Any good bargains Question

post away......

Never been before till yesterday but I thought it was a good show. Lots of bargains to be had and lots of displays.

Enjoyed the mini-moto's the best even thought I had two spectacular offs!!!

All in, a good show.

We (Eddie, the wee fella and I) thoroughly enjoyed it. Thumbs Up

Great outdoor shows and some excellent bikes.

It was great to meet up with the peeps from here that we hadn't met yet either.

Highlight was watching the lads on the minimoto's - why the hell did I have to wear high-heels yesterday!!!! Rolling Eyes

I'd have joined them if I hadn't!

Roll on Knockhill Minimoto Day!!!
