International Motorcycle Shows

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The International Motorcycle Shows are a series of motorcycle expositions that take place across the United States. Open to the public, people can see the latest innovations, products, services, aftermarket products, as well as new motorcycles, custom bikes, ATVs, and scooters. Originally titled the Great American Motorcycle and ATV Shows, these events were launched by Great American Media, Inc. in time for the 1982 model season. After being acquired by Edgell Communications (now Advanstar Communications, Inc.) in 1988, the shows have continued to grow and reach out to more and more consumer enthusiasts with each show season. The 2005-2006 series attracted nearly 600,000 attendees who turned out to see the latest products that the industry had to offer. The series is supported by leading manufacturers and Cycle World magazine has been the title sponsor for the last 14 years while Toyota has been the presenting sponsor for the past 9 years. The American Motorcycle Association exclusively endorses the shows.
