Been to the NEC today and had a good look around.
Lots of lovely new bikes about but the sportsbike market is such a small part of it now even though the most stunning bikes were sportsbikes.
Triumph almost seemed embarrassed to have the 675R on their stand.
I've got a few photos to post up in a bit.
