The Australian Motorcycle Expo happens this week at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre. The show will run from Friday 19th to Sunday 21st of February.
Mark Petersen from the Australian Motorcycle Expo said the entertainment package for the event will complement the comprehensive range of new motorcycle and jet ski models on display.
“It will be the best place to buy a new motorbike, scooter or jet-ski with a range of manufacturers already indicating that they will be offering incredible discounts.
“This year we’ve put together the ultimate land and water entertainment program, combining freestyle motocross and jet skiing,” said Petersen.
Eight-time World Freestyle Jet Ski Champion, Eric Malone will arrive on the Gold Coast from the United States to perform a number of hair-raising tricks, including backflips and barrel rolls on flat water.
He will be joined by leading Australian rider and Gold Coast local, Jon ‘Wire’ Cooke, who will also showcase his skills.
A crowd favourite attraction at the 2009 event, freestyle motocross demonstrations from Showtime FMX riders Matty McFerran and Brad Burch will add to the action.
The Brown’s Grafix Mini Bike Crew will inject further fun into the mix, performing a range of unique tricks on 50cc motorcycles.
“Along with the freestyle motocross and jet ski demonstrations, the current Australian Superbike Champion, Josh Waters will be at the event signing autographs on the Friday and Saturday. There will also be a range of giveaways and promotions and all those attending the event will have the chance to win a $40,000 custom Chopper.
Yamaha are also showing its revolutionary EC-f concept model at the Expo. The electric-powered machine offers a glimpse into the future of commuting with its minimalist and futuristic styling and focus on environmentally-friendly performance and human riding pleasure.
