Daytona Bike Week (well, just 1 day)

Having flown from LA to Orlando we spent the thursday at Daytona before driving up to Gainesville. Mainly because Mark who was with us has 2 Harleys and was looking for some spares. Couldn't believe how many bikes there were on every road within about 10 miles of the beach. Probably 95% of the bikes were Harleys. And of those, probably 99% of them were no older than 10 years old. (most of the owners were over 60 tho!)

Free Bike wash offered...

Did you just photograph the chit or was there anything tasteful there? It looks as if panniers are de riguer this year, which is an especially crap look.

They're called "baggers" and they're cool Blue, didn't you know?

I guess that makes the Nova the best of the bunch!

Great phots, though

PS - well spotted AllKiller!

What is that black one in the middle with the mono shock, and very strange looking engine?

Is it electric or something? I can't see an exhaust.

Bike equivalent of a Donk then, about as cool as flared trousers....

Yep, it's electric Dave...six speed box as well...

I'm sorry there isn't a Harley there that does it for me, they all look like some sort of joke.

This is a Harley:

And if you're lucky a 70 mile range on full charge for about £12,000.

Yeah but it does do 240 mph Martin...
