I went yesterday ( sun ) anybody else go ???? .

visited piaggio stand , as usual was staffed by very uninterested staff ! ( didn't seem overly interested in trying to sell ) .

I still love my tuono and from what I saw , there is nothing I want to rush out and replace mine with .

although I do quite like monster 1200 s . ktm s/duke ( with abit of modification ) . Yamaha mt10 but not the standard colour offerings

and of course the ape 1100 v4 .

there didn't seem to be much in the way of freebies . ( Suzuki were doing free limitless cups of coffee at the nec )

there were a few good deals to be had on clothing ( my mate bought a rukka jacket with £ 75 off , still paid £500 tho gulp !! )

some awesome customs on show and classics too .

worthy of note was a brough superior ,absolute basket case ( albeit with a log book )there was next to nothing that could be restored , the tank had

disintegrated and the shape could not even be guessed at !! . al in all just an upright pile of solid rust and heavy corrosion .

guide price £16 k --- £ 20 k :no.

good day out and less crowded than the NEC .
 
I went Sat and it was fairly busy, the Tuono V4 1100 Factory was still the prettiest stock bike at the show IMO. What have KTM done to the Super duke creating the GT? That thing has one of the ugliest front ends I have ever seen!

Worth the trip to perv out at the gorgeous ladies with their bits hanging out never mind the bikes! Rob
