PICS from INDY trade show Bike pics
« on: February 21, 2006, 12:13:33 PM »
FANTASTIC time. Had my bike in the 2 Wheel Tuner booth was lucky enough to meet a ton of my dealers and customers. Here are a few pics. Got to party all weekend with my best long distance friend's Steve from www.tocc.biz, and Shane from www.tobefast.com.

Nice pics, I was there on Saturday, somehow I missed that Busa 4 wheeler..that thing is pretty sick looking.  Gotta love those McCoy R1's.  Did you check out the two Blue and White race bikes they had there?  One was a turbo and the other a nitrous bike.. I have a video somewhere around here of Shane putting that nitrous bike in the 8.90's

r1 guy here was tellin me about those guys a few years ago.  he was gonna do a kit from them to come after me.  i did some studying and told him to bring his money, bike and pride so i could take all three.  he then did some research and bought me a beer (and i'm slow)


 :lol:  Liter bikes are fast, but I am an old drag racer from my car days and there is no replacement for displacement....

                                                    They actually I do believe got a award for the turbo system on one of the bikes while we were there for engineering. VERY VERY VERY TRICK show and go.
                                               To answer the other questions about having my bike in their booth, it cost me about $500 for hotel $200 for gas and really thats it. In return I got a spot in their booth and basically FREE promotion of my business and services which is very very invaluable considering the amount of stickers and business cards I handed out. I meet a ton of my customers and dealers. Meet with some of my new sponsers. And free drinks and food almost every night. I would love to buy a booth myself for next year but most likely would get a crap spot being my first year there. Might as well promote a big name company draw attention to their booth and promote myself on the side.
                                              One thing I did notice is the big companies like using people they have worked with before unless they call you out of the blue directly. Was very difficult to even set-up a meet and greet with the head guy to even discuss possible plans in the future. hopefully they will like what I offer them next year.
                                               Last question the 4 wheel busa, spawn bike, and my Death Dealer were all painted by www.tocc.biz no sticker paintjobs all airbrush. Later guys Brian

Brian good meeting you.......bike looks even better in person.  Don't forget to send my stuff.  :lol:  I enjoyed the show....got to meet some new people and check out the latest and greatest.  I also met and talked to Micah (I think) from our newest board sponsor Myrtle West.  Seemed like a great guy with some killer products on display.....check out his website if you haven't.

I would like to thank Bill Frew for letting us use his bike in the Dynostar booth (fourth photo - yellow, Orange and checker Busa).  The bike got a lot of attention and I hope it helped bring him some business.

I saw the Death Dealer bike at 2wheel Tuner and spoke with them about advertising in their rag.  Seem like nice folks. For those who have not seen it in person, the bike is very detailed down to little things like grips, screws and caps.  Very nicely done.

Lots of Busas on display everywhere, although it seems as though you need a 330 rear tire to be in the main hall :D
