Nominate for Bike Of The Month - June 2012
« on: May 01, 2012, 05:39:17 AM »
It's Nominatin' Time!


May 2012 BOTM Voting Thread - http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=105442.0 

Congratulations Johnie for being the May 2012 BOTM winner!

I will let this run until about 5/15/12 and then start the voting thread.

Please Nominate, Second and Accept using those words.  It makes it easier for me to setup the voting threads.  It gets cryptic at times.
I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.

kck3 was last active this AM and still has not accepted the nomination? Not sure if he knows what BOTM is, but maybe if someone knows him you can fill him in. The bike really deserves the nomination.

Thanks for nominating me!  It means a lot to me. I love these old bikes and think that each one has a story to tell. You just have to listen carefully when riding her.
