Other models on display include the 2017 FZ-10, FZ-09, SCR950, and several “Yard Built” custom bikes, including a reimagined VMAX, XSR900, SCR950, and SR400.

Demo rides will take place at the Long Beach Convention Center parking lot on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and on Sunday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Licensed motorcyclists will be able to ride a 2017 Yamaha FZ-10, SCR950, or any of the following 2016 models: V Star 1300 Deluxe, Stryker, FJR1300ES, FJR1300A, Super Ténéré, YZF-R1S, Bolt R-Spec, XSR900, FZ-09, FJ-09, FZ-07, YZF-R6, or YZF-R3.
