Motorcycle Live 2017: Ride Expeditions PHOTO FEST
Every November the motorcycle Industry heads to Birmingham for the annual celebration of biking that is Motorcycle Live. Spread over multiple halls in the vast NEC and including a free FMX show, it’s a chance for the British public to see the latest offerings from the manufacturers, fresh from their debuts at the EICMA show. Oh and to get some free stickers – obviously …
Ride Expeditions took the camera and snapped away at the bits that buttered our baps. From the all new KTM 790 twin to the eye-wateringly expensive Brough Superior, it’s a snapshot of the industry in 2017.
It’s on ’till the weekend so if you fancy it, you’ve still got time. Enjoy
