One hundred and twenty thousand spectators in three days! This is the data from which to the appropriate considerations "Bike Expo 2011" which, for the third time, was held in Verona.
One thing that can make people smile in the face of a crisis in the increasingly evident. The registered
of 2010 is clear: 307,045, a decrease of -24.2% compared to 2009.
Yet the turnout was high in Verona. Just as businesses in the sector that have arisen.
Crossing these two facts, we groped for an answer to what we have seen in recent days.
motorcycling is not in crisis, but only the registration of the new. The trend, in fact, is to recover the old bike to turn and hold it for a long time, making it unique. And this need for uniqueness, led to the creation of numerous "special" made mostly by enthusiasts. Sure, a few rare exceptions such as professionals, such Vyrus, Mr. Martini or Roberto Totti, it was not futuristic and innovative means. But you are always beautiful views of motion, often using as a base model rare.
If the general feeling is confirmed in the near future, the registration will not increase much. While there are all the bases so that the phenomenon of "special" grow.
Given the size of what would be more appropriate to call the "movement" which has expanded thanks to the remarkable contribution made by some organizations such as the FIC (Federation of Italian Customizer), it would be desirable for regulatory action by the State, to amend the strict rules of the Highway Code regarding changes to the vehicles. If, in fact, on the one hand, there are few specialists who can, by doing "flips" to build vehicles approved. Second, the majority are not in compliance with the Code of the Road.
just create a body like TUV, present in Germany, which confer the ability to approve parts and means that they meet the criteria of safety, reliability, compliance with European regulations concerning environmental protection.
But is it so hard?
