2008 - 2009 International Motorcycle Show Schedule

This will be the 28th consecutive year for the popular winter motorcycle show series in the U.S.A.

The International Motorcycle Shows allow motorcycle fans from California to New York to get an up-close look at more than 600 new model motorcycles including street bikes, dirt
bikes, fuel efficient bikes, cruisers, scooters, ATVs and watercraft from 19 major manufacturers.

Check out the latest gear and aftermarket accessories; and enjoy demo rides, new rider programs, interactive entertainment for all ages and much more.

“Whether you are an avid motorcycle rider or a potential new rider, each show stop is bursting with the latest bikes, gear, safety equipment and information to get your motor running,” said Show Director Jeff D’Entremont.

“With gas prices on the rise, motorcycles make an excellent fuel efficient transportation choice and the show is the best place to see these bikes up-close and talk to the industry experts about the options.”

Cycle World magazine, claimed to be "the world’s most popular motorcycle magazine", is the title sponsor for the
series for the 16th year. Toyota will also return for the 11th year as presenting sponsor.

The Cycle World International Motorcycle Shows are claimed to be the world’s largest motorcycle show series. For more information, visit motorcycleshows.com.
