The Motorcycle Show hit Calgary, Alberta, on Friday, January 9, 2015, with a motorcade of new bikes from all the major brands in the business. The show, which ran until Sunday afternoon, also featured the latest gadgets and gizmos on the market—plus riding gear and all the apparel you could ever want or need.
The star of the show was probably the Ninja H2. Fresh off the assembly line, Kawasaki’s new supercharged supersport bike made its Canadian debut in Calgary, causing many a showgoer to stop and take a closer look.
