I went to that show two years ago with a couple of guys from work.
Coming from Detroit in February Cleveland can be a lengthy day trip.
That is quite a show, unfortunatly the year I went there Guzzi was about
the only manufacture not represented. It's the closest thing to the Auto
Show we have in Detroit that I've ever seen it the relm of motorcycling.
That show will be in Chicago the week after and if you look it up in
Cycle World it goes to about eight different cities. I highly recomend
going to it. I was able to see all kinds of bikes that never show on the
dealers showroom like: a Royal Enfield Bullet with side car, Henderson
(that was a once in a lifetime opportunity), Honda ST1100 (not a rare
machine but they only import about 700 a year into the states) and every
single model Harley makes at all levels of trim, thats where I got "The
Book" I refered to in my introductory message, the one with the covers
for the bolts that mount the brackets that hold the cover for the
starter. Sorry I'm rambling again. Here in Detroit it's supposed to get
into the 50's this weekend so I'm going to sign off now, put the battery
in the bike and go for a ride. See you later.

| For anybody in the Cleveland area, there is a motorcycle show at the IX Center near the airport on Feb. 1-2-3. It's mostly new bikes and any accessory you can think of. I'll have my '71 Ambo and '41 Indian on display as part of the AMCA exhibit and will be hanging around Fri and Sunday. It's a good way to lose the winter blahs and look at some bikes. John Prusnek |
