Congratulations to Eric for an outstanding piece of work.  The other contenders are exceptional too.  I would have had a tough time deciding which to vote for if my own bike hadn't been in there.  Thanks to all who voted for the old faithful 750F.  It is a pretty good symbol of the attributes that put Honda on the map.  However, it remains for sale, $161,436.90 today, probably a little more tomorrow. ;)

Congratulations, Eric! What a stunner of a CR750!

There were so many exceptional bikes this year.  Thanks to all of the owner/builders for sharing the experience (especially in build threads)!

That's it.  That why it doesn't pay for buyers to procrastinate.

I want Eric's bike for Christmas...   Can anybody make that happen for me ?   I promise, I've been very good this year.
Well deserved, beautiful, beautiful bike.

I just received the calendars and I think they turned out real nice.

Each month has a pic on the bike that won that month, plus a surprise for Dec.

Price is $15 shipped to your door [cont U.S], PM me if you are interested.
