"Vote" for Bike of the Month April 2023
« on: March 22, 2023, 05:20:04 PM »
There's only one bike up eligible for BOTM, so no voting, but it's still a stunner:

Bradleycougar's 1973 CB350F

"There are some things nobody needs in this world, and a bright-red, hunch-back, warp-speed 900cc cafe racer is one of them — but I want one anyway, and on some days I actually believe I need one.... Being shot out of a cannon will always be better than being squeezed out of a tube. That is why God made fast motorcycles, Bubba." Hunter S. Thompson, Song of the Sausage Creature, Cycle World, March 1995.  (http://www.latexnet.org/~csmith/sausage.html and https://magazine.cycleworld.com/article/1995/3/1/song-of-the-sausage-creature)
