2018 Motorcycle Show
« on: November 18, 2018, 06:00:05 PM »
Saturday I went to the motorcycle show. I turned 10 K miles on my '03 Atlantic 500 heading out. I came to see the Honda Super Cub but as always there were other interesting things. I haven't paid much attention to what the manufacturers have been doing so I was surprised to see a production Yamaha Niken 3 wheel motorcycle. I found it quite amusing to see the front tires are the same size as the Suzuki Burgman 650 (and my MyRoad 700i) 120/70R15. The usual mix of custom and vintage bikes like a Mitsubishi scooter. Here's a photo album link and a few photos.

Thanks for sharing the photos, Mike.

That three wheeled Riken got a good review, the test rider says it corners well and has better grip due to the extra rubber up front.

Love that Gilera pic those Italian bikes from the '50s and '60s were pure style!
