Title: If you don't think you will ever get to visit Barbers Motorcycle Museum...
Post by: twowheeladdict on February 04, 2021, 11:29:45 AM: This 2 hour video might be worth your time. You can always run it in double speed and then slow down for bikes you are interested in.

I sold a vintage YZ250 to his son a few years ago at Rice O Rama. The kid could really ride and was very gracious.

During the festival they runs trams around the compound to 6 or 7 bus stops so you can check out the action from several spots. Walking the paddock or swap meet will wear you out!! :thumb:
