Ok Heffay, I'll bite   ;D

I would like to nominate Hush's Police restoration.  Hey may not think it's completely done, but the bike has come a long way.

Well this is a surprise  :) :) :)

...and I humbly accept, thanks Bob!

I know this is a stocker only class so it should be known that the engine had some head work and it has a MAC exhaust sys. If this is outside the 'stoker' limits than kick me out heffay  ;)........the rest is all stock.

Well, it's not modded up or cafed out or chopped, so that pretty much makes it stock, the way that I look at anyway.   :D

matt... i'd prefer to see you in next month's... based on the fact that you're not bone stock and phil's is.
that would separate you two w/ the 350s because, well, phil's is shinier.   ;D  and yours being not quite stock just won't be fair in this contest.

Hi Guys ... thats cool having her nominated and I accept. I also do like Matt's bike and know the efforts he put into his as well. He broke those engine cases right down and had some great pics to show his work. I hope between us we have inspired others to consider rebuilding and "riding" their bikes, rather than breaking them down for parts.
My girl is off to our National Classic Rally Saturday week. Gave her another run yesterday to work and back and she lapped it up.
Cheers ... Phil in NZ
