Scenes From The Expo
Hey, why buy expensive motorcycle parts when you can use old metal crap?
I went to the Colorado Motorcycle Expo Saturday and as always there were some good photos to be taken. How do you like this bike above, made out of a number of decidedly not motorcycle parts?
Among the show bikes there were a large number of them that were detailed out to the max. This one below gives you an idea what I mean.
Chrome does not seem to be enough now; you need etched chrome.
Here’s another close-up up top.
If it’s chrome, etch it. If it’s paint, really paint it–show some artistry.
Another theme seems to be super low rear ends. Can you say “super impractical?” Five minutes on the street would scrape the pipes off this bike. Oh yeah, this is just eye candy, not an actual functional motorcycle.
No, no one is ever going to actually ride this motorcycle. Are you crazy?
Do you really want to have all that weight hanging around your neck?
I did actually see a couple people wearing these things. You’ll see one in another photo, which I may get into this collection or it may need to wait for my follow-up post on Thursday.
OK, so this next one I’m not sure what we’re looking at. Are those toy plastic motors for your favorite kid? I was going to go look but forgot.
Are these toys? I don’t know. Do you?
OK, so that’s few of the shots I got. There are more and I’ll put those up on Thursday.
Biker Quote for Today
$500 spent on gasoline will make you faster than $500 on power parts.
