international motorcycle show...

took a trip to the international motorcycle show in charlotte this weekend... a lot to see, a lot to do. lot of cool bikes - unfortunately i didn't get pictures of many of the bikes!!!

some older bikes that caught my attention

and some antique bikes that are still being driven around!!

took some time to watch the stunk show my the smage brothers. really cool show of their trials skills!!

took some time to listen to doug wothke's talk about his 'round the world adventures. very interesting. the way he talks, he makes it seem like a sunday ride around the park.

bike's been at twin specialties getting the last repairs from the crash last year. obviously more cosmetic than anything else. i could have let it go, but dealing with the insurance company was such a beeeyotch i decided to press the issue.

should be getting the bike back this coming week. can't wait to get back on the road again, encouraging the wife to get on the back and pursue some great rides!! watch, now the real winter will arrive - just my luck...

easyriders show...

headed to the easyriders bike show in charlotte this weekend… compared to previous years, looks like attendance and vendors were down. although it could have been due to it being sunday. there was still plenty to see and check out…

top on my list this year was to see mushu suzie from widowmaker cdr. as always, i wasn’t disappointed… there’s something about a stripped down industrial design that grabs me. i love the looks and innovations on this bike.

something else that caught my attention was this motorcycle hammock from wiskybilt... it's all bolt on, no welding. breaks down into a pouch that will fit in a saddle bag. bet it would come in handy on some cross-country trips.

then is was on to the rest of the show... mike and angie from full throttle saloon were there...

some other bikes that caught my attention...

the trend in baggers these days seems to be large front tires. i didn't get any more pictures, but almost every bagger i saw had this huge front tire...
