I was dissapointed last year, a lot of the show was small stands selling the same old gear, or shiny stands showing off bikes I can see at any pub meet.

not worth the entry fee. I was hoping to get a bargain or two, but I soon discovered many traders were selling goodies marked "30% off RRP" were still priced higher than my local dealer.

a bit of a waste of time.

I went on Friday - It's my first time for the bike show at I have to agree - not worth the fee, no bargins
and nothing really special that I couldn't see at my local dealer (apart from 2003 ZX6RR,R6,CBRR600). I did have a laugh though - but that was down to the company I was with rather than the show.

glad you agree, I was twitching on sunday with nothing to do, thinking I might just go...

glad I didnt. I would like to see the new models (bikes/girls) but since Ive no plan to buy one, theres not a lot of point.
