Toronto Motorcylcle show

[max_caper]

2009 Motorcycle show last weekend was excellent. Almost every major manuafacturer was present. Tons of promotions from local Venders for bikes/parts/accessories/apparel including GP Bikes, Hully Gulley, Kahuna, Parts Canada, Suzuki of Brampton and Newmarket. Lots of folks selling rubber for 250/set and upwards. The new Max looks great in red...not sure if that makes it worth $1500 more?!? Some stunt riders were doing their thing, lots of models, charity organizations, and almost every Canadian Motorcycle magazine was represented. The "Tail of the Dragon" booth was very interesting...I have to make that ride next year and also take in the Cherohala Skyway. The December show is a great venue but if you like more of a fleamarket feel, the later shows are good as well.

Cheers,

Blaine

There is 2 major bike shows in Toronto. 1 is in December that is mainly for the bike manufacturers and then the 1 in January, that is more geared to vendors and clubs, that we will be in.

Did you arrange with Brad to have your Max there for the show yet? He was going to call you today as we need to finalize everything this weekend.

 

[ghostntheshell]

Yeppers.

I will be meeting up with him on Thursday to transport the bike. I will be attending all of Friday and Saturday Afternoon. I couldn't get Saturday night / Sunday night off though.
The bikes transportation has all been arranged and it will be present the duration of the show!

Excellent! Am also working with Yamaha Canada to try to get a 2010 Vmax for the booth. Hopefully the logistics will work out for us. Going to be a great show this year for sure with lots to do in our booth!! Am going to unveil the new look Toxic Friday morning. Will post up some photos here of the display etc. as soon as possible.

 

[ghostntheshell]

Annnd good news! I will also be there all Saturday now too! I got the day off work!

 

[Thevmaxrider]

Excellent news Ghost! I have some of my own too. After some discussion with Yamaha Canada they have been so kind as to allow us to "borrow" a 2010 Vmax for our booth. I guess doing advertising for them really does pay off.

 

[ghostntheshell]

Sweeeeet! I bet it'll draw some crowds too!

Great looking bunch of bikes but you better watch out for those hooligans hanging around! At least Dale is around to keep a eye on ya'll!
Jim, I really like the new look. New scoops, case covers, and color coordinated mesh from stem to stern! Nicely planned out and put together, Yamaha will probably want to do another commercial!
Trevor, I see you tinted your givi, looking good!
Nice showing boys, wish I was in the neighborhood to hang out for a while.unk:

Should've have seen Jim's face when a kid came up and starting putting his foot on the brake pedal!!! :damn angry:

Going back this afternoon. Apparently they're going to "experiment" on a Vmax engine. I'll get some more pics.

Sean could've sent up a "Morley Muscle" advertisement. Lots of his chrome, seats, and jet kits in Toronto! unk:
