It's Nominatin' Time!

February BOTM Thread - http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=64225.0

I will let this run until 2/15/10 and then start the voting thread.

I have seen something like the quote below a few times. It took me a while find this one. So if I did not grab yours, sorry, this was the only one I could find. So, if you guys and gals want each month like the last one, here is one you can follow. It is up to y'all, it is your BOTM. It is just a suggestion from me.

It's pretty hard to run stock against bobber and chopper against cafe', I'd rather be voting 750 against 750 and 550 against 550 etc, maybe we could do a month for a certain category.
~~January=750 stock~~
~~February=650 stock~~
March=500/550 stock
April=350 stock
May=choppers (open class)
June=bobbers
July=cafe' (open class)

Anyhow you get the idea, it's just so hard comparing apples and oranges.

Remember, save your pics and stories for the BOTM, 15 days can be a long time!

Not my style but one HELL of a job!!!

I'll accept that nomination! Thanks Andy!

I nominate NITROHUNTER'S motorcycle.

coyotecowboy · « **Reply #6 on:** February 04, 2010, 05:00:47 pm »

I'll second that!! (I guess he still has it

) Maybe we can get some more pics of it

NitroHunter · « **Reply #7 on:** February 05, 2010, 07:25:49 am »

Thanks my brothers, but I insist on declining this nomination, as my poor old scooter is not worthy of that honor right now.
It is slowly being restored to its former glory days status, but at this time is just a project... Paint isn't clean, seat is ripped, and there are plenty of updates I'd like to work out, like a chin spoiler, 1/4 fairing, longer KZ tail section with '57 Caddy tail lights (to balance the look due to extended swing arm), oh yeah and build a new big bore stroker motor. Besides, I just sold it's carb to Jleather!
I have most of what I need to keep going on it and will at some point post progress in the build section. Lots of pictures of course.
On resurection day - and with a 200 hp dyno slip in hand - I will THEN be looking for that BOM award!

The guys with clean, fresh rides deserve the BOM honor for completion of thier projects. The 'TG mobile' is a good example... hey I'm partial to ARD mags.

I would like to nominate Squirley's 550:

KB02,
Squirley won BOTM for January. But good choice.

Really? · « **Reply #11 on:** February 08, 2010, 08:20:22 am »

This just popped into my head after looking at Squirley's bike again. Those bars are so low, if I were to ride it, the tank would need a belly dent/relief.

I nominate cb550fcafe and his cb550f cafe.

andy750 · « **Reply #17 on:** February 09, 2010, 10:15:27 am »

Looking good...ok we have one chopper and two cafes...how about one more...and NOT a cafe if you dont mind...stock or chopper (any size will do

). Lets get some choice on here!

My question is about Paul's bie. beautiful job I might add. The attention to detail is outstanding and that engine is AWESOME!

Now, just how would you class Pauls' bike?

SOHC4 Cafe?
CB550 Cafe?
CB650 Cafe?
Cb550/650 Cafe?

OR just plain "Hybrid Cafe"?

Not trying to cause a stir,as I am (and have been) an avid follower of the progress and details of this bike, since Paul first started talking about what he wanted to do. I think it was quite an undertaking and amazed at how it turned out! Definitely One Of A Kind!

You could probably throw in race replica as well Bill...

True, Thanks Mick, I didn't think of that one!

Hey, I guess that'd work!

All of the different categories that your bike could fit in, reminds me of Johnny Cash's "One Pierce At A Time"!
