Cycle World Motorcycle Show

[Vortex]

Went to the show last night and one of the first things I did was go to the Honda booth and ask the guy where the heck was the CB1100F they had at the Tokyo show last year?



He told me Honda was not planning to send that bike to the US, just to Europe and we both agreed it was an idiotic move. One of the nicest bikes I saw there was the Moto Guzzi V7 Sport. Its a 750cc standard that reminds me of my bikes back in the 70's but its got some Italian pizazz too.



The Harley display was nice but they didnt have my bike displayed as it is the cheapest in the Electra Glide lineup and I guess they like to push the models with radios and tour pacs. Victory had a nice display with some pretty good looking bikes as well but man, that Vision looks like something Flash Gordon would ride:




Well, thats about it. If you go to the show print up a $3 discount from the Progressive website.

Two years ago about 200+ Victory Visions rolled into town. This place has 1,500 people and the town was absolutely jammed full of these bikes.

They're built right here in Minnesota and I had heard it was some sort of testing session/publicity deal.

You're right though, those things are crazy looking. I also like the Guzzi. If the was a Guzzi dealer near me I'd deffinately take a look at one.

I'm looking forward to going next weekend when it's down here in Houston. I took my daughter with me last year, and she wanted to go on the Vision demo ride, but you had to be 18.
