As we used to say in Ireland, "Vote early, and vote often" !!!

Eager to see the result ot this great contest !

Kev

Shouldn't that be - "Vote early, and drink often" ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Close, but wrong order.  More like "Drink early, vote early, and vote often" . Bribes would have been distributed ! Ask me how I know !

now THAT was a good month of voting folks. 109 votes! it was back and forth all the way from the BEGINNING! there were two bikes that stood out to the voters and it showed. they were withing 5 votes of one another the entire voting period. two very great bikes among 4 great bikes. One is tearing up the roads across the pond and the other is blazing the pavement in the great north. A cafe and a stock restoration. There can only be one winner though, and its IronWorkers stock CB750 that was built in a 3rd story apartment!

congrats to all nominees and thank you all for a GREAT month of voting. Now go out and ride, go enjoy a cold one, and get ready to nominate again.

Wow! Thank you so much guys! I'm really grateful you guys appreciate my efforts so much. I'm very shocked because I almost voted for Sturtini's cafe myself!  ;D

Thanks again guys! I'm honored.

Congrats Iron_Worker and Stuartini. Though I have to say, I'm not sure what to do with myself now that my two favorite build threads are done.

Cograts IW, I voted for the red F2 Cafe Racer, but I'm happy that a CB750 won, those little SOHC4's are getting a bit uppity, if you know what I mean........... ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"
