Sorry man - I was unaware earlier, but a guy I know in NJ (has an '05 Triumph Sprint) told me about it. I just got back into town last night, so decided to go (with the nicer weather). You really did miss something, it was a ton of bikes, and most of them were not Harleys, surprisingly. The main event was a big mix of bikes, not just Nortons - but even the ppl that showed up, it was worth walking down the lines, looking at bikes. In no particular order, I saw:
- several model-years of Norton Commandos
- at least 2, maybe 3 Vincents
- numerous BSAs
- a "Norvin"? Is that a thing?
- two Bimotas
- a bunch of Moto Guzzis, both old and new
- a crap-ton of Ducatis, Aprilias, BMWs
- 2 Honda CBX1000 bikes (1 naked, 1 faired)
- not a ton of Yamahas, surprisingly. Some older RD350 models and such. Frankly, my '87 FZR1000 was getting some looks/attn, and I wasn't in the show

Maybe something like 200+ bikes easily. Was almost overwhelming. Mark your calendar for next year, I'll meet you there.
