I'll second H2Eric's ride.

First of the "billet blockers" to grace this stage. It's a great look as is your whole bike Eric.

Thanks gentlemen for the nomination for which I feel highly honoured and gladly accept. I'll post some pics shortly and give you the full details of its construction. Just got back from the top speed event at Woodbridge, Suffolk. 188.1 was the best on the standard Yamaha R1.

Well done on the 188mph Eric, from what I heard, most of the speeds were down due to the wind.

Hold back on posting pics untill the voting thread opens tomorrow.
