2016 MOTORCYCLE SHOW – TORONTO DATES ANNOUNCED

Ontario’s Biggest Manufacturers’ Motorcycle Show Returns For 29th Year

 

TORONTO (November 11, 2015) – As this year’s riding season comes to a close, Ontario’s motorcycle enthusiasts can now look forward to the weekend when the countdown to the 2016 season starts, with the announcement that the Motorcycle Show-Toronto, presented by Dalton Timmis Insurance, will return to the Enercare Centre (formerly the Direct Energy Centre) at Exhibition Place February 19–21.

This is the only Ontario stop on the motorcycle manufacturers’ official national seven-city show tour, providing enthusiasts with their first live look at the 2016 line-up of new motorcycles, scooters, ATVs and side-by-sides.

In addition to new bikes, riders can check-out the latest in apparel, accessories, touring destinations, and many other exciting exhibits all under one roof.

“When the Motorcycle Show-Toronto weekend arrives in February it really does signal the countdown to the new riding season, which by then will only be about six weeks away,” said Toronto Show Manager, Neil Fardy. “This Show is the only Toronto-area stop where the major manufacturers will debut their new models and showcase their full line-ups in large, colourful displays throughout a show floor the size of three-and-a-half football fields.”

Show favourites, like the Yamaha Riding Academy for Kids, She Rides Night (a celebration of women who ride) and Yamaha’s How To Riding Skills with expert Clinton Smout, are back with many more thrilling features to be announced in the months ahead.

The Motorcycle Show-Toronto presented by Dalton Timmis Insurance is produced by Power Sport Services.
