Guzzi Norge - interesting. R1200S - exhaust looks a bit gynaecological. One might very easily get into the wrong hole.
In uk.rec.motorcycles, Krusty amazed us all with this pearl of wisdom: This is nice: http://www.darioengeler.ch/album/displayimage.php?album=47&pos=8 But this is better: http://www.darioengeler.ch/album/displayimage.php?album=47&pos=12 And this is Phwoor! http://www.darioengeler.ch/album/displayimage.php?album=47&pos=47
Great bikes Sad looking Totty http://www.darioengeler.ch/album/displayimage.php?album=47&pos=65 is a nice bird http://www.darioengeler.ch/album/displayimage.php?album=47&pos=81 have nice overalls Nice quality pics, some a little dark though. Looked a little more civilised than the NEC -- Robbo Trophy 1200 1998 BotaFOF #19. E.O.S.M 2001/2002/2003/2004/2005 B.O.S.M 2003, 2004, 2005 FURSWB#1 KotL..YTC449 PM#7 ..
Another reason why the NEC is such shite. Two shows, a fortnight apart, but if someone's got a new bike to parade, they don't unveil it in the UK. I fail to see the point of the UK Bike Show, I really do. It's not a show. It's a market. Nothing wrong with that, mind.
This one is a bit revealing: http://www.darioengeler.ch/album/displayimage.php?album=43&pos=2 and this one is rather gushing: http://www.darioengeler.ch/album/displayimage.php?album=37&pos=1
darsy says... I don't mind the NEC being the venue at all. From a trader's point of view the NEC is a better venue for two reasons: 1) Access to the showhalls and greater space inside.. 2) Leisure motorcycling is more popular in the north. NEC is easier for Northerners to get to. 3) Greater capacity. From a punter's viewpoint Brum also scores. 1) Access to the venue from north, south or wherever. 2) It's not in the middle of London and hard to find if you don't know the area. 3) Better facilities. 4) Much better parking for cars and bikes. 5) More room for stands meaning a greater choice. Having the show in Brum is a far better prospect overall tbh.
Agreed. It's easier (and quicker if I use public transport) for me to get from Harrow to the NEC than it is to Ally Pally.
You're fucking joking. NEC is a damn sight easier to get to than Alexandra Palace. Train/bus/motorway/plane all stop within 100 metres walk of the place.

indeed - Ally Pally is jolly handy for those of us fortunate to live in the People's Autonomous Enclave of Norlonto.
