Yup! I was there today with my best buddy, picked up a 2 piece for £200, and some Sidi Vertigo's for £140. There were cheaper Sidi's around but not in my size and colour I wanted

Still a saving though, fun day.

had to sasy i found the bmf quite dissapointing, i went for first time today but think i prefere the NEC,

Seemed alot of tat for sale, none i wanted, NEC i walk round and go ooh they look nice, (brake discs etc, rad grills)

hardly saw any there , M&P and busters hardly had anything there,

bewulf couldnt make it there today

just to me seemed like the exhibitors go to the NEC to prmote new stuff, and get rid of some old stock, and today the bmf seemed to be just full of last years stuff and tat they couldnt shift,

Just my 2p worth

There was some nice stuff, but it was vastly outnumbered by tat...

Almost bought some sidi's but decided against, did get a decent bike cover cheap though, and some tools I needed so got what I wanted

Its horses for courses.The NEC show is all about new bikes and products at top dollar with all all the bling and razmaztaz that goes with an industry show.
The BMF is totally different and is about bargain basement gear and having a chilled out time.
