Er... what are the rules if you're nominated and seconded twice?  Does Johnny5 win by default?   :D

The clubmans were killing my wrists, so I went to drag bars and they are a perfect match for me.

Usually, there's always one bike that hits me in the BOTM contest.  This month, I'm at a loss.   I don't know what I'd pick if they were all sitting in front of me.

Gentlemen.....well done & congrats to all. 

Fun Jimmy - love the red vs the blue that it used to be.
Johnny5 - that black bike is just killer - hard to beat black on these things.
Mark - that stocker is just plain beautiful - I am actually feeling a twinge of guilt for not making my K2 bone stock
Aussies - very unique - not too much, not too little - very nice.
BobbyMagee - that is one sweet bobber - great stance !

If I had a five-sided quarter, I'd have to flip it...

Yep, I'm the kid that figured out how to put things back together...eventually.

Yup yup, true true!
I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.

just finished bmagee's build thread (other forum), and wow is all i can say. the man made his own seat leather!  y'all should check it out.

has he been told his bike is up?

mr. magee, i like them comstars as well. use to not be so but they lend a particular look.

on another note, check out funjimmy's build thread too! craftsmanship among our ranks is to be admired to say the least. humbling.  8)

A hardtail 650  :D gotta be in there.....nice work.
I think the thing I most like about motorcycling is the speed at which my brain must process information at to avoid the numb skulls who are eating pies, playing the ukulele, applying make-up etc in the comfort of their airconditioned armchairs as they make random attempts to kill me!!!!!!!

It looks like if you are a stocker guy you will have a much easier choice than if you are a cafe guy.
