Today was the Progressive International Motorcycle Show held at the Washington State Convention Center in Seattle. A friend and I caught the 0720 ferry and when we arrived in Seattle, we had a half hour hike up the hills to the center.
The show has most of the major motorcycle manufacturers represented as well as accessory companies, insurance, ride promoters and custom and vintage motorcycles. I was a little disappointed that some of the motorcycles that I wanted to see were not displayed. Still there was plenty to see. After a couple of hours, we headed back to the ferry with a side trip to the Gum Wall in Post Alley and a fish and chips lunch at Ivars.

The show opens and the crowd enters.
Motorcycles and people everywhere.
The Can Am Spyder is always a popular motorcycle.
I liked the paint on this custom.
This started out life as a Yamaha. Very little original remains. Interesting finish, it is brass plated. I wonder how this bike handles with the strange front suspension?
At the Allstate Insurance exhibit. A nice clean custom by Arlen Ness!

This was an interesting custom "dually". It has a rotary engine.
Dual wheels on both front and rear.
I got to ride with Flo!
The gum wall in Post Alley. Disgustingly interesting!
