LH .. Bah .. No envy at all..

Consider this:

The UK taxpayers are paying for mr LH's Private Jet, through an "Ile of Man" tax evasion scheme .. :2up:

Never really took to that braggard .. >:)

I went, The Lewis Hamilton looked good in person, but not worth the premium. The RVS looked really good and had a much better dash design than the current dragster. The Perelli special edition Brutale was nice, but I wouldn't buy a branded bike like that, the Brutale 800RR looked really good int he black and red. The MV stand was busy the whole time I was there, and interest seemed high.

The Ducati V4 looks really good in person, the photo's haven't done it any favors. Over at KTM the brand new Duke 790 was completely disappointing, and looked sad compared to the prototype of it last year. Yamaha, Kawasaki and Honda had nothing new or interesting. Suzuki wasn't even there. Overall the show was a bit disappointing and overpriced for what it was.

Thanks for sharing [emoji106]

I am slightly non-plussed by the stock ‘scalpel’ look, but it was destined to be blunted from the pre-prod proto due to regulations, like its big brother.
I’m holding out for lottery ticket + the 790-engined rally adv with spokes and nobbies!

If they keep up their track record KTM will wreak havoc on the ralleye circuits with a machine like that!

Great pics...thanks for taking us there.

I personally don't care for either the LH or Pirelli branding efforts but to each his own.

I'm surprised the Kwak nine actually looks pretty good but it needed four pipes.
