No, no guys, not me this time - I'm out. I'm glad Mike's old girl won because they both deserve the fame. They've been friends a long time and as we all see, they've treated each other very well. - Mike congrats!!

I'd like to see more of this gold custom faired 750 at the top of this thread. It looks awesome from this pic and might be the inspiration for my next bike. Can someone post a link where I can see more of it, please?

Thanks,
Gordon

I guess I misread this from the rules post:

Quote
Lastly, January through November we will vote on "bike of the month", in December we will vote for "bike of the year" based on all the 11 winners of "bike of the month" throughout the year.

I saw the "in December we will vote for "bike of the year"" part, but my eyes glazed over the "based on all the 11 winners" part.

So how are you going to do it Heffay? Will there be a 2006 winner or will you wait till there are 12 winners?

Wow, there are a couple of beautiful bikes nominated already, going to be a tough month to make a decision. Just to make the choice even more difficult I'm going to throw another great bike into the mix - Beechpeople's unique 550.
