What did everyone buy at the show this weekend?

Picked up a couple cans of chain lube cheap, a DVD, (The Doctor, Tornado and Kentucky Kid) and a nice 3/4 length touring jacket. Now just waiting for March and the spring rains to wash the salt off the road.
 
Tech Spec tank grips for me, 50$ from BlueStrake R guys.
Last year changed all my riding gear so other than some good riding shoes (low boots)- which I didn't find - wasn't really looking to buy much.

Good few hrs spent - the the pizza smell in the halls... oh boy! ... no wonder it worked like a honey trap, as I'm reading:lmao:
 
only a case of motul 7100 from pro 6. Wife is pretty mad about 4 sets of pirelli's last week. Pro 6 also had great prices on dunlop NTEC slicks, 25% less than last year.

Had lunch in the car, had people offering money for the parking spot. It was pandamonium. Even saw a guy jump a sidewalk and curb with a 15 passenger van to steal a parking spot from another waiting car.

Also saw lots of leathers for those drivers worried about road rash in their car

Can't find any parts info on the 2012 yet
It is "totally redesigned" according to Suzuki
Seems like most all Suzukis use the same oil filter ( I have a new B12 air filter too.)

Cross-checking shows that I can actually use the 3 Honda VFR800 oil filters, that I bought a little while before trading it in, will work on my Kawasaki ER-6n. They look to be higher quality than the OEM Kawi filters too.

Joe Rocket Heartbreaker 2 jacket for the wife as well as some Nitro boots for her. For me Joe Rocket Ballistic 3 in 1 jacket, Alpine Stars SP-8 gloves and Icon Accelerant boots. Hit Royal on the way home for kevlar reinforced jeans with knee protectors. Helmets for both of us just before Christmas so ready for the season to start!

Rob - FYI - for VFR800 you can use the Fram PH6607 filter, can find at Canadian Tire for 7$ - works great.

Maybe so but I still have trouble getting over that debacle, some years back, in which Fram filters were virtually exploding and throwing hot oil all over people's bikes, due to poor case crimps. I know that they haven't had trouble since, but it's a mental thing.

I am also picking up this helmet (should be in, in a week) think you could post up some pics? I'd love to see that thing!

I can't take a pic as good as the one I posted. Quite frankly, the detail just doesn't come out in the pics, it's FANTASTIC in proper light!

i didnt buy anything at all between the eye candy working the booths and all the goodies i forgot what i was there for!
 
Spent just under $8 for 2 pops, $10 for a beer (More ridiculous prices for food...). Then wanted something to actually show for it all so I got my son a toy bike and a T-shirt for me :rolleyes:
