The annual motorcycling extravaganza at the ExCeL Centre in London’s Docklands is the only opportunity for the Capital to see the very best in two wheel life under one roof. Leading the way is 22 of the world’s best manufacturers who will be showcasing their 2017 ranges of machines, such as Ducati’s 215bhp Superleggera, Honda’s latest Fireblade, the all-new Yamaha YZF-R6 and the UK debut of Triumph’s recently unveiled 765cc Street Triple. Norton will also be displaying the British designed and built Superbikes – the V4RR and V4SS.

Alongside the very best in new metal, the 2017 London Motorcycle Show offers something for the whole family. The always popular free live action ‘Slide’ show returns, taking over the centre of the arena as Isle of Man TT legend John McGuinness goes head-to-head with ex World Superbike Champions Neil Hodgson and Troy Corser, fan favourite Chris Walker and Australian speedway stars Mark Lemon and Kevin Doolan.

Race fans will find plenty of exclusive content this year, as the show exhibits a rare collection of iconic Barry Sheene machines, including his 1976 and 1977 title winning Suzuki’s, as well as playing host to a number of MCE British Superbike Championship riders and team unveilings. MotoGP fans are in for a further treat as three genuine Ducati Desmosedici’s used by Loris Capirossi, Carlos Checa and Casey Stoner will be on display throughout the event, and in an explosion of noise, will also be fired-up on the Saturday!

Elsewhere, historic vehicle specialist, Coys, will be putting a collection of the rarest motorcycles and memorabilia under the hammer throughout the weekend whilst the David Silver Museum are bringing a number of rare Honda machines to display.

Also returning for 2017 is the popular London Custom Bike Championship, with builders from across Europe coming together to compete for the prize purse. The Harley-Davidson ‘Battle of the Kings III’ are also heading to the London show, as judges choose their UK winner, who will go on to compete in the grand final in November.

Fans will be able to rub shoulders with motorcycling stars throughout the event too, with World Superbike legend Carl Fogarty and Charley Boorman already confirmed to be in attendance.
