It only takes one other bike to make it more fun than riding alone!

There have been a couple of drifter gatherings other than the DI... since there are so few of us around usually it resulted in fewer than five bikes...

Maybe this will spark some interest up and you can have a Mini-Drift-In?  Kinda short notice, but maybe make a 3 day weekend out of it?  I won't be there as Indiana is a bit far, but go for it!

Why cant we do a late fall drift-in west coast southern cali? The Pacific Coast Highway is an absolute dream to ride on an I'm a sure it has only once if ever seen several drifters cruiser at the same time. I know we have people in san diego inland an north of LA but what about close stares like nevada arizona utah ect lets get a bunch of together. Santa Barbara san diego la solvang where ever lets do it!! Or do ypu guys need a better excuse to ride your bike in oct than great weather gorgeous scenery an good looking bikes?

Going to your first Drift-In is like walking into "Toys-R-Us" for the first time as a little kid.... ;D

In all my time shopping and looking for Drifters, I had only seen a total of 3 in the flesh (owned 2 of those) - so pulling into a parking lot with what ended up being somewhere around 30 of them was QUITE a treat.

Remember that one really weird person at your last family reunion?  Picture about a hundred of them, all in one family at one time and you've got the gist of it.  About all they have going for them is that they all ride Drifters.

Go to Registry, get a VDR#, and you get added.  I think we have a good number of members that have just never done that, so there's probably members in your area, but remember, these are rare bikes, so you will never find a ton.  There were only 9000 800cc Drifters made for the whole world market, and another 9000 1500cc bikes made for that same world market, and they did get spread out to all corners of the globe (there were also a few 400cc Japan only models made, but Kawasaki hasn't confirmed the total on them).  Some stayed in Japan, I know there are 3 or 4 in New Zealand, there's a few in Australia, at least 1 in India, 3 in the UAE, spain, Germany, France, England, Canada, the United States......they really got spread around.  I've only ever seen a handful of them in the flesh (No, I haven't made it to Drift-In since I've owned Nadine, but maybe next year as it's pretty close!).
