S ee the
2009 show!
The Cycle World International Motorcycle Show arrive in Seattle December
11-13
As the date gets closer for the 2009 Cycle World International Motorcycle
Show in Seattle lots of great things are falling into place. Here's some of the
highlights you'll experience at this years show. Considering the state of the
economy, this is going to be a great year for deals. Read on.
- New Models - While it's true that you can ride around to various
dealers and see the newest models that are available on the market, the
motorcycle show provides two additional reasons to see them there.
 For starters many of the 2010 models haven't hit show room floors yet, so
you'll be seeing them in the flesh for the first time. Honda's new NT700V
and VFR1200F models are on the route as well as Kawasaki's new Z1000 and
BMW's S1000RR.
"What?"
you say. "BMW - I heard they won't be there." While it's true the factory
truck won't be on hand, South Sound and Ride West will combine forces to
present a factory like booth on the floor of the exhibit hall.
The other reason to see the newest models at the show is that it's you
chance to compare new models during a single session for styling and
ergonomics. Since no dealer carries every line of bike, there's no better
way to compare and contrast the various models then at the show.
- Ducati Free Style Team - Show promoter Advanstar does a top rate
job every year of bringing in great talent to entertain attendees. This year
they're doing something new by bringing in the Ducati Free Style team.
-
 Campagna
T-Rex 14RR MotoPhoto - FREE - Is it a sports car or a trike? The
Campagna T-Rex 14RR is it's own animal and unique from any other trike on
the market today. You'll get a chance to sit in the T-Rex, have your photo
taken and later on you can stop back by the booth and pick up your picture
of you in the rig.
-

the Sound RIDER! Northwest Motorcycle Display returns to the mezzanine level
for the 9th year in a row with the theme - Number 9 Dream. See unique
one-of-a-kind bikes from the Northwest you've never seen before and may
never see again. This years display will feature several racing sidecars,
custom cruisers, a Yamaha FZ6/R6 Bumble Bee sport tourer, numerous dual

some time to catch all 40 bikes in this display.
