You can still attend the show and check out the bikes.

You just can't test ride the ones going all around Long Beach harbor...

It's only a concept, so they'll have it on display, but definitely not for test rides.




BMW will also have the S1000RR on display as well; no test rides.


If you want a 6cyl bike to ride, you've got the Triumph Rocket III. That's one hell of a bike to test ride...

No word yet.

Most likely, it will be the Hypermotard Truck, which has 12 bikes available at a time. If a local dealer wants to show off other demo bikes, we may see some Monsters, 848s, and (if we're lucky) a Streetfigher or an 1198s...
