Vintage Japanese Motorcycle Show

Do you see the tagline in my header where it says "a place for thrifting, gardening and all things vintage"? Well, I take that last part seriously.

Maybe a little too seriously.

This weekend my husband, son and I went to a vintage Japanese motorcycle show.

If you are at all interested in the motorcycles (yawn), you can see more photos of them in my Google online album. I made the album for my husband's motorcycle friends.

BTW, do you know how hard it is to get a good shot of a motorcycle with people walking around? A bit too many legs in the photos for my tastes.

What I found fun about the show was that they had a flea market area. Now don't get too excited about the flea market, it was definitely geared toward motorcycle parts and people that really love vintage Japanese motorcycles. That would be the husband.

But they had some fun stuff there for us vintage, junky people. Like this cute motorcycle toy.

Lots of pieces and parts that were interesting looking. Especially if I would have known what half the stuff actually was.

I bet Jane from Mamie Jane's could find something cool to make out of these doohickeys.

I got all excited when I saw these trophies because these would look fantastic in my husband's office.

But wouldn't you know, the vendors didn't just fall off the turnip truck. They actually had their stuffed priced as antiques.

$150.00 for this trophy.

And the cool looking old oil/lubricant cans were $35-$55.

Oh well, they have to make their money somehow. And if my husband is any indication of the men who attend these things, he was not the least bit interested in buying a piece for display, he was more interested in whether the headlights are factory original parts or not.
