Registrations Open for 2024 Budweis Indian Motorcycle Custom Show
The only custom show 100 % dedicated to Indian Motorcycles , the ' AMD Approved ' 2024 Budweis Indian Motorcycle Custom Show is slated for the 2024 Indian Riders Fest ( IRF ) in the Czech Republic from 13 to 16 June .
After the success of the 2023 show , the organizers have achieved a lot for 2024 already , with five months still to go . Brian Klock will fly over from his Mitchell , South Dakota headquarters as president of the jury , and preregistration is already open for this third edition - and guarantees participation and three additional complimentary tickets . The bike show is slated to occupy one complete hall on the IRF site at eské Bud jovice ( Budweis ) in the Czech Republic . Talking about this upcoming third edition , Ola Stenegärd , Director of Product Design for Indian Motorcycle , said : " There isn ' t much in life that gets me more excited than a custom motorcycle show . As a designer and custom builder , I really feed on that creative energy . With the BCS totally focused on Indian Motorcycle , it is a standout event for me . " As a long -standing Indian Motorcycle fan from way back as a kid , the growth of this show in such a short time is food for my soul . The 2023 class winners were exceptional , and I ' m looking forward to seeing the creativity and ingenuity infused in metal , chrome and paint at BCS24 ." However , BCS24 is not just a display of chrome and steel . It is an engineeringled show , a celebration of the extraordinary craftsmanship of European custom bike builders and
