Let's just say I would like any one of those bikes in my garage. But this month it has to be the 350. Such a nice under-rated member of the sohc clan.

           No doubt about it, each month, there are some great bikes to vote on and all the bikes that have been on here and are on here are soooo greaaat, that it's a job to decide. I too am going for a 350 for the same reasons already said. GOOD LUCK GUYS!!!! May the best 350, uhh  I mean bike win. :-[ ;D

as moderators we are able to see the results of the polls even before they are released...  let me just say, its really really hard not to vote just to see who is winning  ;D

this really is a great lot this month.  i had never seen rsv12k's until it was nominated.  for reasons like that i really enjoy the BOTM contest because it keeps things interesting and it's something to anticipate.

go tha 350f's!   ;D

thanks doug... i've always been amazed at how much that little 350 howls (even compared to my race rep kawi that's got an extra 500 cc's over the 350 and a muzzy)
its bikes like that, that were the ones that made me make all the engine noises when i was a kid... and still do  :D

Love Heffays Cafe - sounds delicious.. possibly different to mine but then it's got different exhausts (megaphone???  ;))

Love Keith's stock 350 in gorgeous red.

Love JP's bike too very very nice.....

Phew... a very difficult choice... I suspect that people will know that I'll vote for a 350. But which one!!!!
