Default Motorcycle Show Pics!

A site I frequent just put up some pics from the Motorcycle show from Montreal Canada.

Not really my thing, but I do dig some of the cruisers.

Pics 1 - Pics 2

I actually was looking at the KTM SuperDuke as an alternative naked in lieu of The Monster (as well as the Tuono). But brand loyalty kept me with something slower and more expensive...

Alpinestars have great riding/walking boots.

I have SMX-2 which are comfortable to wear all day:


I also have Tech 2 which are a bit racier. Not as comfortable as the SMX-2, but it has a lot more protection:
