    At last we are going to see a bike at BigBoys Toys that you can't see by just going down to your local bike shop. Looking forward to taking lots of high res pictures of the Supercharged 1300 GSX concept bike and posting them in the Gallery. And if it’s not draped in bikini girlies, I’m gonna be really disappointed.

    I'll try and take the day off on Friday and get down there early in the morning so hopefully I can avoid the crowds.

    Angry BBT

    I went to Big Boys Toys last year and was pretty dissapointed too. The BMW boys and AMPS were the only ones there (AMPS only had the hog range too) so I was pretty pissed off. The best bikes on show there were all the ones parked out the front by people at the show! Hopefully they've rectified the situation this year... although I don't see any of the big dealers listed in the exhibitors section www.bigboystoysnz.com
    motomail and a few others... could be dissapointing! (What the hell are people like AMPS and Red Baron doing? slack bastards)

    Ah yes, that does make it a little more tolerable.

    Big Boys Toys 2002
    Meet up with knuckles and wari at the show and I have just got back. It's defiantly worth turning up when the gates open before the crowds arrive. And this is on a Friday. It’s gonna be worse on the weekend.

    It's better than previous years, but still not great. At $15, I guess it's worth it.. Spent a couple of hours looking around the bikes and other stuff. Lotsa home theatre and other digital toys, but for a show that calls itself Big Boys Toys, it’s sad that there are no firearm shops showing their wares.

    Tooks some photos of some of the show girlies walking around. No bikini girlies None of them were all that stunning, but since I run a Playboy site, I guess I’m used to looking at professional babes.

    yep, the girls were the attraction indeed.

    besides the SF GSX 1300 i liked the Mzda RX8 (in a cage like the animal that it is)

    but the chicks were good.

    -whats the address of that playboy page...

    Went down to the show again today. Wanted to get some photos of the bikes I missed last time and to see if there were nicer show girlies today. The Honda and the Woodstock Bourbon & Cola girlies where very nice.

    I just give them one of the bussiness cards I made for Kiwi Biker and tell them I'm covering the show for the site, and they are more than happy to pose for the camera :bigthumb:

    Thanx for the pic's
    Nice bikes at the show - but I like the chicks more, particularly the Jim Beam girlies. Now I am happy and saved 15 bucks
