By the way, Monday's show is not great as it's when everyone takes down their stands.
If you only get the choice of CIMA or Canton fair, go for Canton it is MUCH better. CIMAmotor is a bit half-hearted these days which is a shame because it could be one of the world's top moto expos (in all honesty it was much better better years ago when I was working with them on the international aspects).
That would be great to get details. The entrance tickets. Do you know if they are purchased at the gate?

Looked at my old 2010 CIMA report...
It would be nice to read a comprehensive report of the show. Interesting to see how little has changed in 7 years and how few of the bikes I photographed ever became available. I hope CIMA has done a better job of attracting accessory and parts companies.
Most important would be quality images of the booth babes, we haven't had proper coverage of that in years.

First day of the show was tiring. Think I saw everything there was to see... I'm told in previous years, this was a no annual event and from now on it's yearly or something, so less exhibitors. There were two halls open and outside activities.. Trying some of the bikes.. Like the Kawasaki versys 300
Attachment 19764Anyway, I had fun.

There were so many smaller displacement sidecars.. A lot of manufacturers had them.. Not sure why, except that the models seemed to line posing in them..
But I saw this and thought it was a cj750 but no.. An exact copy forget the price.. But "new"
Haojun?

Re: CIMA 2017 Motorcyle fair in Chongqing
Sorry about the pictures all being in the wrong orientation..
I think the biggest thing was the showing of two new zongshen adv models. I don't know if this had been seen elsewhere but was news to me. A 380 and a 450 adv bike from cyclone range the bigger one was shown in red and orange both with side cases and top case in aluminum

Re: CIMA 2017 Motorcyle fair in Chongqing
I was surprised that shineray was not there.. Or jialing... But for me the show was interesting.no got to know some brands better which I'm sure many on here are already very familiar with.blind in and zongshen for example..
They had big booths facing each other at the entrance. Loncin had a big show on a stage which attracted so many people I didn't see their bikes until later.. They also had a be display with people riding a bike on a stand and you could see in the big screen what they could see.. Not bike related but cool, I thought.. The bike was the 300rr which I rode outside.. Another of the attendees _perhaps a professional rider) was chucking this bike around the small enclosure outside, doing. Endos (spelling?) And wheelies for the crowd.. Very entertaining and attracted me to a bike in a style I'd not considered before.. Very "flickable"

Loncin 300rr.. Pretty fun and nice sounding exhaust note
