2009 Int'l Motorcycle Show pics (oh yea 56k death!!)

[thirdgenlxi]

So yesterday my friend/roomate Jered, Andie, and myself all rode over to Greenville, SC to go to the Cycle World Int'l Motorcycle Show. I went to it last year here in Atlanta, but they didn't come to Atlanta this year so this was the next closest one. Had a freakin awesome time.... got to go for a ride, hang out with great friends, and see all kinds of bikes... what could be better?!?!

Anyways... on with the pics. Sorry some are kinda blurry... it's really hard taking pics in places like this, the lighting sucks for pics (too light to use the flash, yet too dark not to... sucks!)

Jered and I went to the McD's in Hartwell, GA to meet up with Andie and get some B'fast before heading to the show




'09 600RR w/ABS.... I love this green/black color combo!






1000RR.... these things feel sooo freakin light!




Why-O-why.... I'll never know


This bike was kinda cool.... lots of detail




What's wrong with this picture??




Oh man, I want one of these!


Older bikes




MmmMmm....race bikes


New Hayabusa..... didn't 'feel' as heavy as I had expected, even though I know it's still a chunk




Carbon fiber Buell race bike




I never realized these were transparent.... very cool!




The new ZX-10R's.... ewww. Not 'too' bad from the side... until you walk around to the front


WTF??






I'll take one!


Uhhhh....






New R6


Jered loved the factory black with gold wheels on the R6's


These bikes sit really high! I'm around 6ft and my legs were FULLY extended just to flat foot


Andie couldn't touch the ground at all, LOL


I just don't know if I'm diggin the new R1 or not. Not a fan of the red seats at least












*drool*






I want a hyper-'tard






Jered absolutely loved this Victory.... he likes cruisers too


Victory Hammer wasn't too bad either






Another 'uhhhh....??'


POW bike




VFR.... I've always liked these bikes, and like the dark silver too


New Honda DN-01...... kinda goofy looking




Honda two-fiddy.... I'd soooo rock it!




Holy flat tire batman!! Front was almost flat too.... don't know why


ZX-14 with Monster colors






KTM's new sportbike.... I kinda like it!


Saw this in the parking lot on the way out


And now for my "WTF were they thinking?!?!?" shots...

WTF?? It looks like 2 huge birds with they're mouths open waiting for food to be dropped in


And yet again... WTF??


This Victory is just plain weird.... looks like some kind of funky space ship


Group shot in the parking lot just before leaving the show


Our whips




Then stopped at Sonnys BBQ in Greenville to sit down and get something to eat before heading back




We all made our way home.... Andie split off in Hartwell right when we crossed back in GA, and Jered and I kept going and made it back home just after dark


Got home and most definitely got the "And just where the hell have you been all day MISTER???" look from the Misses.... uh oh I'm in trouble



And that's all I got. Sorry for so many, but you all know I'm a photo whore, lol

I was planning to head out there but figured i'd take an out of state trip next month.

Good pics. That Bayliss bike is a worthy tribute.

On the Moriwaki 250....It has an engine based on dirt bikes. A new trianing tool for 12-15 year old to get into the sport.

Drove up there on Sunday. I loved the all CF KTM RC8, and the LE Bayliss 1098R.

EJ: Love the 959 signature pic.

Show looked pretty decent. That Green and Black CBR is really nice.

It was a great show. I went up there Saturday morning but I bitched up and drove.
