I went along today for the first time in about 35 years and I must say quite enjoyed it. Almost worth going just for the VIP bike parking! While the cagers had to pay £12 to park miles away from the hall, we were directed right into the main NEC and got free, secure, indoor parking - makes a change to get some positive discrimination for once...
Wasn't a fan of Steve Parrish's 'Generation Game' on stage (I do hope he's being well paid).
One thing that struck me was just how many three-wheelers there were on show - not just little scootery-type commuter affairs, but big stuff like Yamaha's Niken which comes out next year. I really don't get it - who are they marketing this to? Is it for newbies who think they'll be nice and safe 'cos it won't fall over? Or are there countries where you won't need a motorcycle licence? Odd.

And who knew that Watsonian were still around, flogging sidecars. I genuinely cannot remember the last time I saw one of those on the road:

I did enjoy Smiler's mate's rat bikes too. The pictures really don't do them justice; they really need to be seen to be believed! ____________________ KC100->CB100N->CB250RS--------->DL650AL2->R1200RS->R1250RS |

Old Thread Alert!
