Here is a link to a slide show that I put together of the bikes. Some BMW content.

Some great bikes on show and an excellent choice in backing music.

Was that the Grateful Dead?  I don't think I have that song.

Nice pictures.  I liked the GB500 in the background of your picture of the cafe'd CX.  I wanted to vote for it but he was taking too long to get his number on it so I picked one of the Super 4s.

I didn't see any other R65s this year; did you ride down?

I didn't see myself in any of the pictures.

Ed, no I drove and was real glad I did as we hit a downpour in Salem on the way home that slowed the freeway to a crawl. I never knew Honda made so many different bike. I have owned 3 over the years but saw a few at the show I have never seen before.

Funny.  I went home via Philomath and Kings Valley Highway and just got light rain.  My leathers were enough to keep me dry, and they're not really waterproof.  I was wishing at times that day I'd worn my one piece suit though.
