Bummer I was really hoping to go this year but will have to miss it.  I wanted to check out parts for my scrambler project.  Hope it's fun this year!

Lots of old, rough parts to be had fairly cheap


This guy really wanted me to haul this home on my bike for $40

I took a pair of these clutch covers off his hands


And some bikes from the parking area




And a few from the show



This was awesome


Someone has a great imagination



An overpriced 750


a very nice 550F built and painted by the owner

Here are some photos from my trip to Rice-O-Rama....

Nice set of Vmaxs were there







just across from slightly older bikes



and next to the sidecar



good for a tour?





Interesting chopper...didnt sound too good though..







and some cool bare bones bikes







Interesting CB750F



With spec sheet:




I liked this bike..




and the requisite CB750 cafe...







Very nice CB1100F




Cool little yam



The Kawasakis leave in style



Got enough lights?



or junk up front?



Was a good show for variety!

cheers

I was able to sneak away for the day and attended this.  It was a nice ride from NH, just wish it warmed up a bit more throughout the day.

My first time attending and I had a great time.  Some of the bikes were simply outstanding, and others left me shaking my head.  Have to admit I just dont understand the "rat bike" thing...

Some of the bikes in the parking lot were as nice as those in the show.

Overall a great event and I will be going back next year.
