Vince - if you go, ask around and see if anyone is considering a backrest for the pillion rider.

TIA.!!!

I can't make it this year but I hear what you're saying. It seems Duane at PCA has choosen not to follow up on his attempts at a backrest for us. Oh well maybe someone else will take it as a task down the road.

Vince - if you go, ask around and see if anyone is considering a backrest for the pillion rider.

TIA.!!!

Sucked....as usual.

H&B were there. Checked out the explorer panniers. not bad...Now it is between the explorer and Trax. Twisted Throttle brought another GS (booooooo!) and the yamaha area just had one Ten with the typical yamaha kit. Why cat intermot come to the US?


Though, I did get to see this bad-boner-ific-machine.......

WOW ???

I was there on Saturday. There was 2 tenere's . H&B had one with there accessories and a Dealer had another . I was impressed with Alen who
is a US distributor for H&B . There was a Motis / Movis , what ever its called . Nice to see , probably won't see another one $$$$. This was certainly
nice .

I can't believe I missed the H&B stand! Alan from Capital Cycle is a good guy - I got most of my H&B stuff from him.

Yea, he was tucked away in the middle aisle somewhere. Said they borrowed the Tenere from a customer. I was hoping to see the H&B engine guards in person
