Americade 2017
« on: June 02, 2017, 10:24:31 PM »

Not technically an Electric Motorcycle Event BUT Americade begins next week in Lake George, NY.  Last year at the Painted Pony Ranch in Lake Luzerne there was a local dealer set up with a couple of Zero bikes available for demo rides.  I took out a DSR for a test spin but he also had an FXS.  I'm assuming he'll be there again this year.

Victory was also there with a couple of Empulse demo bikes, but the way they ran their program was just STUPID and I never got a chance to try one.  I don't know if Polaris will be doing any Victory demos at all since they shuttered the brand at the beginning of the year.  They MIGHT be, if nothing else but to help clear out their inventory so you never know.

I'll be there all week.

Don't forget to tip your waiters.

Try the veal.

Well here's a surprise (he says sarcastically):  It's raining here in Lake George.  It should be clearing out by midweek though.

To anyone attending Americade: Try going for a test ride on the C-Evolution and see if you can find out when it will be arriving at US dealers and what is the MSRP.
