Hello, i hope you will excuse this intrusion onto your Forum, i'm not a Bimota owner but have long admired these bikes and that is why i would like to invite the Bimota enthusiasts to the Classic Bike Japfest.
The Taunton and Bridgwater section of the VJMC are holding a Classic Bike Japfest at Haynes Motor Museum, Sparkford, Somerset on September 15th 2013 and we would like to invite you as a club or as individuals to attend. It is a one day show but does have free camping for all exhibitors, the only criteria being is that the bikes must be of Japanese origin and at least fifteen years old.
You will also have free entry to Haynes Motor Museum which houses the largest collection of cars in the country.
For full details and entry forms please go to www.japfest.net or contact me with any queries at nick@japfest.net
We hope you will attend and look forward to meeting you.
Kindest regards
Nick Watson. |

...Always worries me when people mention "Bimota enthusiasts"......
Are they confusing us with the now de-funked enthusiasts circle?
..or or we just being referred to as enthusiastic bimota owners
either way...sort of makes us sound like geeks and nerds...........oh yeah, some of us are ![Laughing](images/smiles/icon_lol.gif) _________________ SB6 mk1 (project mega light, big bore)

Thanks for the replys, obviously it would have to be Japanese engined bikes.
Nothing wrong with being labelled enthusiasts, geeks or nerds, i'm probably one, wait till you meet me. No matter what you're labelled you're always welcome at the Japfest. |

If any of you are going to the Bristol Classic bike show, drop in and say hello, we are in the Sedgemoor Hall under the VJMC banner.
There will be flyers and entry forms for the Japfest if you want to show your bike.
It would be good to meet some of you and have a chat. |
