I went to the IMS show last night as it was supposed to be raining today (it is) and really enjoyed it. Not as crowded as the Saturday and Sundays. Kevin Mahoney was there, so I finally got to meet him and we had a good long chat. Nice guy, I enjoyed our time together.
The Continental GTs were looking good, as were the rest of the Enfields. I forgot to ask him when the dealers were going to get them, though.
There were several Bolts there in a variety of guises. Apparently, Yamaha is putting out a lot of custom accessories. They are nice looking bikes, if you're into cruiser looking V-Twins. The new triple looked really nice.
Suzuki has a new 250 repliracer coming out. Looks nice.
And I met a guy, Todd Eaton, from Guzzi Tech, who sells a lot Guzzi accessories and does tunes ups and stuff. I've bought bits and pieces from him, but never have met him. He also does a lot of magazine work. We had a nice chat, too.
It was a good night!
I took some pictures but most of them definitely weren't meant for publication. I guess I'm not as steady as I used to be. Shoulda turned on the flash.
I didn't see any Hardley water buffaloes. I thought they would be there. I didn't ask, so maybe I just missed them.
