Three-time World Superbike Champion Troy Bayliss has announced the staging of two new motorcycle exhibition events in Brisbane and Melbourne in 2014.

Branded MOTO EXPO, the events will be held at Brisbane’s RNA Showgrounds on 21-23 March, 2014 and the Melbourne Showgrounds on 28-30 November, 2014.

The events will encompass extensive displays of motorcycles from every discipline, along with custom, vintage and classic bike displays.

MOTO EXPO will form a hub for product launches, special guest appearances and a range of live demonstrations.

“MOTO EXPO is a new and fresh approach to motorcycle exhibitions,” said Bayliss. “We have been working hard to create the perfect blend to showcase the motorcycle industry products and services, to enthusiasts and the wider community.

“Both the Brisbane and Melbourne Showgrounds offer newly renovated exhibition buildings and allow the exhibition to expand outdoors.

“The shows will come to life with test rides, safety demonstrations and racing. It is all there to create a great day out for the whole family,” Bayliss explained.”

KTM, Yamaha, BMW, Triumph, Ducati, Hyosung, Vespa/Piaggio and Arctic Cat have all confirmed their attendance at the events, with more set to sign shortly.

The Brisbane exhibition feature an additional event – the Baylisstic Scramble Dirt Track Teams challenge. The concept looks set to build upon the successful Troy Bayliss Classic run in regional New South Wales earlier this year.

“To compliment MOTO EXPO Brisbane we are bringing such a special competitive motorcycle event to the heart of Brisbane city which is going to be phenomenal,” added Bayliss.

“The list of special guest riders competing are world class and I always look forward to dirt flat track racing, it’s where it all began for me and many other riders, its bar to bar action.”
