Cool March 4-2017 7th Annual Modern Classic Motorcycle Show

Went to the 7th annual Modern Classics Motorcycle show today. Plenty of nice bikes, some quite rare and all very nice.

Here's a view from the second floor over looking the show

Some of the highlights of the show

1952 Vincent Black Shadow
pics 1 & 2

1970 Munch 1200 TTS "Mammut"
pics 3, 4 & 5

1954 Augusta 50cc single wheel motorcycle. When I came upon this one from opposite the picture, I thought " that's a good way to get hurt". Tragically the young man who had this built, lost his life on it.
pics 6.7 & 8

Finally, an identical 1982 Kawasaki GpZ 750 like the one I had. I wish I would have never sold it

Thanks for the pics. Man, those Vincent's really do it for me. I obviously know that I'll never own one, but man...... The times for the nitro Harley seem a little slow for what it is. I was watching them run well over 200 back in the 90's. You have any more pics????
