Yes, Indian was there. Not sure about the Scout. Perhaps if you call Indian of Oakville they might be of help to you.
Nice bikes but did not pay particular attention, hence the lack of my knowledge.

Weird that Ducati did not have a Scrambler there. Seems to be a popular bike.
 
This show is such a waste of time. Toronto (and area) people are getting suckered year after year.

Almost everything can be bough online for half price vs. the show. There are very few (if any) interesting bikes and no new technology.

Just a big flee market, with overpriced food and and an entry fee. Similar feel to The Ex.

Yes, the Indian Scout is there. I had a seat on it. Lots and lots of interest in that bike. Dealer told me he has sold 30 of them since they came out. I really like the bike, but the seat is a little hard, I would go aftermarket if I bought one. Harley Davidson also has the Street 750 and 500 there. Scout is the best looking though.

Cool thanks!

I really like what they did with that bike and that they went liquid cooling on it. Apex in Cambridge sells Victory but there is not an Indian dealer in my area. I guess Oakville is the closest dealer to me.

Weird that Ducati would not bring a scrambler.
 
It's the first show for me and boy was it warm in there. I'd do it again but parking was insane when I went at 2 yesterday.

Bought a Joe Rocket that online was $179 for $99. Shops are selling their end of season leftovers cheap.

No H2, no new R1, no KTM RC390... this show was the exact same as last year basically. The Duke 390 has been sitting in the back of GP Bikes for quite a while. They weren't allowed to have it on display yet in the store or something. Seen it last month. Nifty bike. They've already sold like 5 or 6 RC390's. Can't believe people are buying bikes without seeing it!

ah thank you for this.
I was planning on going tomorrow to see the new litre bikes (R1, H2R, RSV4RR, 1299, S1000RR)...
Seeing as none of those are there then I think I'll stay home.
 
There were lots of people there but not much merchandise
 
Lights on but nobody home?

It's something bike related to do in the dead of winter. Spend 20 bucks have a 10 dollar slice of pizza look at some chicks ***** and a few bikes call it a day. Boohoo
 
I went with my two brothers today, and yeah, parking sucked... took us 1/2 hour and were then routed to the Go station.

I got a set of $120 bars, that Canadamotorcycle sells for $100+ for $40, so I got value out of the show.

Brother with a Harley got a few contacts for some custom paint work he wants done and got handed a free skull cap to wear under his helmet -- so he got his money's worth.

The other brother didn't get much other than a chance to see a bunch of new bikes and a free calendar or something.

Only saw Mikeymoto and Tyler from Twowheel that I knew, walked by the GTAM booth but didn't feel like talking to anyone there.
 
Walked around and saw some cool bikes. The paint jobs on those crazy chopper bikes are insane.

The rest was the same stuff, different year...

Very disappointed with no 2015 halo bikes from any of the manufacturers. Apparently that's all at the February show?

My son and I took train up this morning. Walked around a lot, looked at lot's of bikes and accessories, paid $3.50 for bottled water and $9.50 for Mill St Organic. Had fun, especially at the concert/custom bikes side...
 
Went their and headed rite for the soar booth. Registered for my course and license, and paid for my first round. Also decided to purchase another pair of alpinestar boots. Was in the market for some stands but didn't see much of a selection
 
Prices are insane for food at all of these type of venues. Almost $9 for 1 deluxe pizza slice and 1 Pepsi. Good thing me and the missus weren't too hungry!
 
Last time we went, got our hands stamped, took a stroll to Wendy's up the street for lunch, then went back to the show. They still do re entry, right?

Still looking at going around noon tomorrow. Seems it will be just my 3 year old & I, as my older son is ditching me to play video games. I'll post up when I arrive, looks like I'll have an extra vip entry ticket available,

That would've worked although not sure on the re-entry. Was cold too.

Cash only btw for any members still going. That was weird
 
I had a blast
