I liked the new tank but thought the metal flake paint was a bit much.

Thought this display was very cool, would not like one coming after me

Thanks for the pics, CA. I think the spoked wheels on the '17 CB really look good.

Also went to the bike show. Here are a few pics.

Lots of new models.

Some old models (these two are owned by a friend of mine).

A model popular with those with gray or no hair.

Proving that my wife had too many beers at Hofbrauhaus prior to the show.

I would own one of these (but it's not a motorcycle).

Oh...and a free shoeshine to boot (so to speak).

ES, at first glance I thought "Lots of new models" meant the ones in the red dresses.

Those toaster 750 beemers are collectible.

Perish the thought.

Eddie has about 15 vintage or soon to be vintage bikes, including a CB400 which I have offered to "store" in my garage free of charge.

Did you notice if the clutch pull was obviously lighter with the new 'slipper clutch'?

No, I did not notice.

I would think a 16% reduction would be hard to feel lol

That's what she said.
