Cool wedoo...can you do that to my stocker???  ;D

Absolutely.  You have a new garage going up as I remember and it needs a nice picture for framing.  I looked at what you have posted and suggest that you take one, or two, of you bike at different angles with a good digital camera with some decent resolution.  Like a 1600 pixel, PM me and get my email address.  Give me an idea what you would like, or use Encosse's freakin out idea.  Fix you right up.  Goes for anyone here, I like doing it.  I just did an old-timey shot of my 550.  Should have put some cracks in the film though.

Amazing what you can do wedoo with the computer. Very nice poster of my bike. As ecosse mentioned less abstract as I think the people coming into my shop would not even know what it was if not for the lettering. I will get you a better digital in the near future. You are talented my friend....thanks.

I am speechless and humbled for sure. I really want to give praise to the other builds as there was a lot more work put into those than my stocker. They are excellent examples of what talent and a creative mind can build. My hat is off to each of you. Again, thanks and ride safe!!!  8)

Nice win sir.  Especially since the other bikes were as good as they are.  Also is testament to the number of purists on the site.

Is there actually an art thread?  Heaven help us.

Remember folks, all non winning nominees can be re-nominated after one month has passed.  So, this means the other three can be re-nominated, if they are still in possession of the bike, from July on.
