Congratulations, Dino!  Your videos were so incredibly helpful to so many.  Including research, rehearsal, editing, etc. -- you probably did the equivalent of two builds. 

Congratulations to Chris and Chris (aka riverfever and SKTP).  I've enjoyed your build threads and admired your perseverance.  I feel like we've been cheering on each of you on your builds.

Thank you all for the recognition and for all the helpful feedback along the way! I'll be working on a DVD of the build in the coming months and I'll certainly keep you posted on it's release.

Again, THANK YOU! :)
If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

Newbie here. I want to vote but for some reason I don't see where to vote. Please answer my dumb question. What button do I push to vote for Dino's CB750?
Many thanks

Not sure I'm doing this right but I vote for Dino's CB750. I practically binge watched the video's and I like what he did. Nice bike, mostly stock.
I always prefer the stock pipes which, if they are K0 pipes are likely better than almost any others but the pipes he chose are very nice.
Great job.

That is because the July BOTM voting closed at the end of June.  We are presently voting on BOTM for August.
