Ok, not the best pics - but for those of you who were afraid you missed something spectacular - don't worry. ;-)

Some Q Link bikes and scooters

Hyosung sportbikes (and one cruiser over to the right - Execs at Hyosung must think their bikes aren't selling well in the US - this is the first Hyosung cruiser I've seen!)

I'm sure this paint job took a lot of effort - but really? You want to paint your bike so it LOOKS rusty?

These quads seemed kinda lonely - not sure why they weren't down on the main floor, but there wasn't anyone around to ask questions...

These are what a friend of mine referred to as "butt candy." I can't really imagine spending more than a half a block on one of these.

These look like they would be fun. In-line shifter, - and all the gauges look like 'Busa guages, so I'm not sure if these are totally custom or if these actually retail somewhere.

I think this belongs to a guy at "The Motorcycle Shop" in San Antonio - more bikes like this and the stories that go with them would have made for a better bike show, IMO.

Stunt bikes. I got a few videos, I'll try to post at a later date. I was there on Sunday the 22nd - I heard there were some pretty big crashes on the 21st.

The Spyder guys made a big deal about this style of bike being a Transformer in the upcoming movie...

More proof that the most interesting bikes were in the parking lot, not on the showroom floor.

The show was OK, I got there Friday afternoon, just in time to miss the Yamaha demo rides. They sure kept that a secret.

The parking lot was the best part of the show.
 
The three wheeled T-Rex is manufactured. There is a dealer in Houston. http://www.grandprixmotoring.com/ and I am sure other places.

Thanks for sharing the pics. Didn't even know their was a show going on in SA.

Interesting. Canadian. I never would have guessed. Anyone here every driven one?

The SA show wasn't really publicized well. The only reason I knew was because I got a flier from Alamo Cycleplex.
 
I really enjoyed the parking lot as well. Vendors had some interesting stuff, but the neatest bikes were not indoors.
