First motorbike swap meet to open in Vietnam

Motorcycle enthusiasts will have the chance to touch, see and feel the merchandise, or just chat with experienced motorcyclists about the hobby when a bike swap meet is due to open in HCM City later this month.

The event, dubbed “Silk Road Flea Market”, is expected to attract at least 300 vendors setting up kiosks and stands of all kinds bartering and selling used motorbikes, parts and bike related paraphernalia.
 
At the 4,200 square meter market, bikers will have a chance to collect old items from classic motorcycles such as handbrakes, wheels and headlights, which most often can be found only in antique shops.        
To display or exchange components and vehicles at the market, participants can send their item’s images via email chophien@vietnammotorbikefestival.com. Registration is free of charge.
The market, the first of its kind in Vietnam, is part of this year’s Vietnam Motorbike Festival 2014 set to kick off in Ho Chi Minh City on July 27.
