RDS Bike Show

P.C.

I think I will go along to see if I can get a few bargains.

Don't forget to haggle.

I'm fighting in a competition on the 28th, I'll be too sore on the 29th ~ but if I get a freebie ticket I'll try make the 29th.

IMO the show is only good for hooking up with a few lads for the craic, throw in a few wheelies and act the bollox on the ride out to the show.

Apart from that its a load of bollox.

Makikomi - As in previous years I think the freebie tickets are for Friday only

I usually get a dropsy in work, perks of the job

Really I wouldn't bother paying €15 for that rubbish when the best craic of the day is the ride out to the kip.

is it really that bad?

really most of the reason id go is just to get a look or sit on the manufacturers range of models.

looking at the shows site theres probably only 6 or so bikes id have much of an interest in. not a great selection

Its not a great show TBH, was in the Belfast one last year and it was average at best and its alot bigger and better then the RDS. As was said previously its mostly all the stuff they did not sell up north.

Might be lucky for a bargain on last day close to quitting time.

its a good way to pass a couple of hours, i wouldn't get too excited about it as i don't have cash for anything new anyway,

www.cottermc.com will have one of the biggest stands there so you can check out their range and price online, they seem to do a good range of stuff, gives you an idea of pricing anyway. No affiliation.

Same here, picked up a shark vision r for €180 I think at the last bike show from the cotters stall, 2 years later and I still haven't seen it cheaper anywhere online to this day. Pity it only lasted 2 weeks but there you go!

anyone got spare comps or promo code for this show? Thanks.

Stunt riders alone were nearly worth the €15 entry although if you go around the back you can see them without entry. They put on a good show.

As the experience thread has been closed i'll leave this video here:

Being a 4 wheeled fan (Sorry!) I've only been to a few bike races, motocross and trackdays etc before but never a show. It was a fantastic experience and ill definitely be back next year, 100s of new bikes and classics, the live displays were brilliant, and the fabrication on the custom bikes was just incredible! I hope you enjoy my highlights video!
