Covid-19 has taken a serious toll on both the motorcycle industry and motorsports. Lately, we have been hearing a lot about factories shutting down and also races/events getting postponed or cancelled.
The 36th Osaka Motorcycle Show 2020 was set to happen on March 20, 21 and 22. On the other hand, the 47th Tokyo Motorcycle Show was set to go on March 27, 28, and 29. However, the events were recently cancelled because of the Covid-19 outbreak. Good news for us, Honda got us covered with their Virtual Motorcycle show which would be going live this Friday, 27th of March 2020. Stuck and bored at home because of the MCO or lockdown? Well, this is something you can catch this week.
