Cafe Racer Magazine Readers Ride-In Bike Show 2017

Post by jabcb »

Cafe Racer Magazine had their annual Readers Ride-In Bike Show today.
Was at a park near their headquarters in Sewickley, PA, which is a few miles west of Pittsburgh.

Had great weather & a bigger turnout than the prior two years.
Suzuki to strokes were well represented.
I rode RedZone/GT550. There were two GT380s & a GT250.

GT380 that won best Japanese bike. Nicely done with monoshock, 3-into-1 exhaust, GPS speedo/tach & different forks. I think that might be a Japanese exhaust.

Some nice bikes there.
Think of how stupid the average person is, then realise that half of them are more stupid than that.
