Nomination for Bike of the Month - May 2015
« on: March 31, 2015, 10:43:25 PM »
I would like to start things off by nominating Davez134's gorgeous blue CB750K2









She may have a leak to contend with as Dave gives her a shakedown, but she's a runner.

Was more lamenting that in recent times, some bikes have turned up without good documented threads on their origins. To me, it's part of it, the build. Haven't seen a bike nominated that wasn't deserving of credit and respect, just prefer documented builds to be part of it. Personal opinion. No offense intended.

No problem, Marcel.  Congratulations on the well-deserved nomination.  I will post a voting thread on April 16th.  If you can post a summary of your build on that thread, it would be a great way for members to hear what you started off with, what work you put in to the bike and some finished product pictures. 

By the way, the gauges you restore are fantastic!

Good luck with the voting later this month!
