  • Lyon Moto Expo, France: 2010

    http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/stunter/...ycle-expo.html
    and http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/news/710...expo-lyon.html

    This year too she managed to cover some of the event. Unfortunately though this year she managed to get there only during the weekend and thus the photographs that she shot were tougher to click due to the presence of the crowd. However, I would try to show what she has to present.

    The Augusta Brand











    Augusta Merchandise



    The Ultimate Augusta, 200Bhp



    The Benelli Stand





    Wouldn't you like to have that in your garage!



    BMW, the mother of all tourers!





    Now shall we say, move over everybody else, Ducati cometh!!!









    And the price tag to go with...













    This one needs no introduction to fanatics of Ducati





    Now you will be seeing some Moto Guzzi























    Honda Playboy Stall







    Look at these exhausts













    The Monster SeriesThe Playboy Girls











    In the Kawasaki stall, we have here, the model that is creating waves, breaking records in the sports-tourer segment, the ER-6F



    One of the most currently popular bikes in the riding schools: the ER-6n















    Guess who!!!...

    The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

      Simply Mind blowing. the playboy honda is an impressive colour combination. Or may it is just the Honda . Oh yes.. the exhaust on MotoGuzzi is quite out of the box. The playboy girls (no offense to them) gorgeous as they might be, still look out of place somehow.

          mind blowing pics ken! now how do u expect me to work in office after seeing this pics
          A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

          Always be ready (get geared) to fall and then think of sitting on the motorcycle.

            Girls to me generally look good. Especially with a motorcycle. Girls in paddock attire at the bike paddocks look terrific! My thoughts though.

              I don't even have words for the Italian Designs . Its seems they go to an alien planet and steal designs from there.

                I agree with you Ken Da, babes on bikes looks great

                Coming back to topic. These are normal under - seat mounted radiator with fans visible from rear.
                And I thought its something new that we would see in future.

                  In all of the bikes posted here, I like the second last one. I don't know which bike it is though :-( can't make out from the logo. Simple and elegant design. Nice

                    That is indeed an underseat exhaust. Had a discussion with Rossiter about this. To reduce front end vortices and better weight distribution.

                    @Rossiter: Thanks for your tech support

                          Normal from which angle?! They were considered innovative and everyone thought that would be the norm from then on, until people started realising that there wasn't any real advantage to it. Needless to say, underseat radiators disappeared in a hurry after that, and like I said, it is anything but normal

                          And of course.. Great pics. I only went through them in a hurry at first. Will kick back and study them more closely

                            I did not receive much from the Yamaha stall:

                              LoL! But thats the bike I liked the best. If possible convey this to her

                              Seems like Yamaha and me have janam janam ka rishta Looks like a single cylinder bike, wonder what the specs would be like

                              Is that logo standard Yamaha stuff? The ones in India are different. Sorry, I don't have such a keen eye.
