Was the bike show in Seattle last weekend? How was it? Worth going to?

Depends on what you want. I wanted to see the Ducati 848 that I have on order, get some custom fit earplugs, and check out new bikes.

I went away satisfied.

I'll give it an OK. No Husqvarna (08's are late to the US) and no Triumph (again) KTM was there for once with a nice display.
High % of pretty girls so that brought the score way up.

It was okay best thing bout the show when we was waiting to get in on sunday about to pay to get in and somebody from a shop gave us free passes to get in for free.

My fav bike of the show was that KTM had a real Rookie's Cup KTM 125 aka RC 125 2 stroke race street bike on display. I can't believe how small the lower fork tubes were on those inverted forks they had to be like 30 mm's!
It also had a rear suspenion linkage like most KTM street bikes do good thing it was bolted down :devil:

He's the one who got me all into 2T street bikes I got to ride his TZR 250 one day and it was all down hill afterwards then as a treat I got to take the RZ 500 for a qwick spin.
