Nomination for Bike of the Month November 2015
« on: October 01, 2015, 08:33:22 AM »
The last BOTM for 2015, because next month's vote will be for Bike of the Year.

Nominate wisely but nominate!

Yes, it has.  It was nominated and voted for the June BOTM.   ("If a bike was voted upon in a BOTM and did not win, it may not be re-nominated for 3 months.") 

I'll second that, AND I'm waiting to see the next two bikes coming out of that garage!

Thank you for the nomination.  Logan and I are extremely honored to even be considered and we do accept the nomination and Stella has been performing superbly.

Its a partitioned gas tank. One side fuel, the other oil.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of it's victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S.
