Having been to the show a few years ago I wasn't sure whether I had remembered it through rose tinted glasses. Needn't have worried it was the dogs bollocks:
Managed to take quite a few different pics throughout the day:
KAWASAKI
The only manufacturer to have the girls on board:
Nice bike?
Tommy's next bike?
Anyone guess what it is?
Try the new 250 Ninja:
HONDA
The new Blade - not everyone's cup of tea:
YAMAHA
Not much changed for the 2008 R6:
But the new 125 looks the dogs:
Anyone recognise this back end?
Marty - look away now mate. Look what they've done to your XJR:

Look at the arse on that!!!!! The new Hayabusa is even uglier (if that's possible):
Check out the new colour scheme for the GSXR 6:

Remember the bike bench Phil wanted us all to buy a wee while ago?
Yours for £225!! Phil's face was a picture!
And finally.......couldn't resist a visit to the
Two fellas and a very pretty blond giving it rock all:
Filmed it on my mobile phone so the quality isn't the best but should give you some idea of their antics.
Arrived at the NEC spot on 10 am and left at 5.30 pm. A top day and well recommended. Maybe a few more might be able to go across next year.
The ETAP hotel was spot on as well and the least said about the Pink Planet the better.............
