Romanian Motorcycle exhibition – SMAEB2011

This year Honda was completely missing from Smaeb, and KTM was also more or less missing. BMW had a huge display of bikes (all at un-reasonable prices) and Yamaha was quite ok as well and surprise, Harley was present as well. Still it felt more like an accessories show. This really makes me wonder, how do motorcycle dealers evaluate the importance of being displayed at an exhibition? If they don’t sell anything there, it means it’s money badly spent? I was under the impression that the affinity towards a brand is built in years, and you have to work towards it, even if there are no immediate rewards.

So this year I can’t dream about a new Honda because there weren’t any that I could see or test… Anyway, a few pictures. Babes come first:

A bit of stunt show was going outside:

I really liked the old bikes display:

Sculpture from engine parts. Sweet.

The BMW stand -sorry no close-ups – I couldn’t get any near to the price tag :) ) :

The Versys looks quite ok:

2010 Yamaha Super TNR – I don’t know, it didn’t feel like much, compared with the older, sturdier Super TNR. Too much plastic and looks for Dakar if you ask me:

Vespas were cool. Too bad they are way to easy to steal:

Well, not much to see, but at least it signals riding time has arrived!
