IMS Cycle World 2011 Show
 
So my BIL asked me to go as the MC guy, to help him look thru the new touring models.

So this Kawasaki Voyager was the main attraction for my BIL

http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011015.jpg

nice sticker price. But like a Victory Vision, a test drive could kill it.
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011020.jpg

Nice lookin dash
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011017.jpg

Heated seats and rider comm
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011016.jpg

He really likes it
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011018.jpg

They are offering a stripped down version for more "solo riding" per the Kaw Corp people there. To which I said, yeah it's the "Street Glide" version DUH.
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011022.jpg

But they switched the bag type too, for the negative. Side opening <thumbs down>

A couple of bikes for the dual sport gents

http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011096.jpg
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011097.jpg

This was a real nice looking cruiser
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011014.jpg

Some nice rocket power

Yammy tried to meet with the Kaw but WOW does it fall short in some areas
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011030.jpg

Like a CASSETTE deck on a 2011 bike! REALLY!?!?!?!?!?!
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011031.jpg

Another Yammy, and boy is it a dead ringer for another brand?!?
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011032.jpg

But talk about a poor use of fairing space
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011033.jpg

Madonna called, she wants her bra cups back.
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011034.jpg

A real nice straight cruiser
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011035.jpg

Some WOW factor wheels
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011036.jpg

If you don't have your testicles or ovaries anymore substitute them with another wheel.
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011095.jpg

If you still have those body parts, you'll do better on this, honestly.
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011094.jpg

They had some nice customs. Honda had this "factory" custom that was real real nice.
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011107.jpg
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011106.jpg
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011104.jpg

All touch screen, but is the speedo in there?
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011105.jpg

Then all these custom built bikes through out in a bike show contest. I didn't even take pics of all of them.

Progressive was HUGE there. BIL was looking for Flo, for maybe inpure reasons, but she wasn't around. It's ok, he found great cut rate insurance for his future bike purchase. LOL
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011082.jpg

They had lots of nice vendors there. WAY more than they had last time I went 5 years ago.

Found this nice vendor product - Stop & Go Tire plugs
http://www.twowheelfix.com/showthrea...275#post440275

Picked up a catalog from these boys... again thinking about my dual sport buddies
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011081.jpg

Found this super cool helmet for those nerd folk
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l3.../CW2011011.jpg

pickle.of.doom 01-12-2011 03:09 PM

Some of the custom bikes look like they should have pedals.

Thanks for the Links I always like to see what other guys are doing.
That picture is Big CC Supercharger Kit ($8K when I priced them last year) The Big CC product is what I truly want. 225 at the rear wheel No waiting for the turbo to spool a consistent predictable power curve and all running out through a stock appearing exhaust.
I Also know RCC Turbo packages (Rich does real good work) I they have the benefits of making more (if you address the Valve Train issues of the 2nd Gen Busa Engine) but you are waiting for it to spool and conditions can alter when you are going to see boost.

Dnyce 01-13-2011 07:18 AM

that supercharger kit looks almost small enough to hide under busa fairings, cool...cept for the price tag lol
