Tokyo Motor Show ... The Bikes ....

#1 Post by D-Rider » Sat Nov 10, 2007 1:33 am

Having recently returned from Japan I guess I should do my duty and post up the pictures of the bikes that were there.

The following manufacturers had stands:
  • Honda
    Ducati
    Yamaha
    Suzuki
    Kawasaki
    Triumph
    HD/Buell


There were a few bikes on other stands too.
I took quite a lot of pictures (well I also bought a new camera while I was in Japan so it needed to be tried out). For ease of posting I'm making a number of slideshows on ImageShack ... so follow the links by clicking the manufacturer names below.


Honda: <---Click

Ducati: <---Click

Yamaha: <---Click

Suzuki: <---Click

Kawasaki: <---Click

Triumph:
No pictures taken in Japan - I'd recently taken pictures of the Triumphs I was interested in at the Frankfurt show .... posted HERE



HD/Buell:
Yeah - right ... not wasting my time there - especially as there was no sign of the 1125 Buell.



Others: <---Click
(Bimota Tesi 3D & Pedrosa's RC212V)

..... and Finally ..... an interesting Bike-Park in Akihabara, Tokyo:

Good work D-R.

Was that Honda CB1100F real or a mock up?

Can't help but feel that the Desmosedici RR looks like a fish from that angle.

The CB1100F was listed as a concept ... but it looked very convincing ... wouldn't be surprised to see a number of these Honda "concepts" finding their way to the streets before too long.

As for the CB1100R ... stunning .... Oh how I want one of those. Even with the Desmosedici RR on display, it has to be the bike of the show.
