It's Nominatin' Time!

2010 BOTY Thread - http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=79332.0 

Congratulations Godffrey for being the 2010 BOTY winner!

I will let this run until about 12/15/10 and then start the voting thread.

Is it too early to nominate TinTop?  My guess is that he'll decline the nom until everything's done, but maybe it'll be all finished by Jan.

Build thread here.

He certainly deserves it, what with his perseverance after almost cutting his hand off and all.......

[FunJimmy]

I'll second TinTop's nomination.

Going through the build thread, it looks close enough to finished to me.  Are we ever finished?  I bet MCRider will find something else to do when he says he is finished.   

[Really?]

Anyone else?  We need at least one more.

[brandEn]

I third his nomination as well. Looks like it just needs a headlight.

I'm humbled Syscrush by your nomination, and here I thought you didn't like my mirrors.   Given the quality of FunJimmy's bike, his 2nd is also greatly appreciated.  You are however, as you suggested, about one month early with your nom.  The rules require that it be declared 'finished' (for now , so I must decline.

There are still 14 things on the 'To Do' list, the last being to take it for a ride.  With winter here, it will be very, very short.

This will of course, turn out to be the worst decision I could make, given the quality of the bikes on this forum.   Thank you for the consideration.

Well, maybe next month then.  I did give you my blessing though.

And I thank you for that TipperT.  A Mod's blessing on this forum, it could be argued, carries more weight than the Pope's.

If I had felt that it would 'rideable' by the middle of this month, when nominations close.....     However, with the holidays coming, family, and other  commitments, and the time lost(); that will take me into early January.  So yes, maybe next month, should someone wish to put forward a nom.

I was gonna hold my vote ransom until you posted pics of them tucked under the grips.

Actually I was going to post pictures of them, in all the positions, on my thread.

tweakin's bike is one of my favorites. I would like to nominate it for the voting. I know it was up in September but it is a quality build that I think deserves a place as BOTM.

[brandEn]

I will second the nomination. I have seen it in person and pictures do it no justice. He may not accept the nomination because he is finishing up his lastest round of mods but we will see. Definately BOTM worthy!

since TinTop declined hopefully my nomination still counts...

[tweakin]

Thanks guys, I am honored by the nomination. 

I have to decline like BWJ stated since I am in the process of the second round of mods, but don't forget about me once it is completed "again".

[cb550fcafe]

Wow, that bike is/was great the way it was/is. I can't wait to see when you are done "again". Takes guts to change a good thing. Reminds me of funjimmy. Heck we know what round two was for him. Keep up the good work.

[Stev-o]

Tip - since we've had two guys decline, can you suggest a couple like you've done in the past?

[Really?]

I need to look a bit.  I am still exhausted from BOTY, lol.

It seems like y'all do not mind me throwing out suggestions, thanks for that.

I will add that it is ok to re-nominate a BOTM contender again if they did not win but we wait a month.  This was voted upon by the members and the vote was close.

YEP YEP!! Definately one of my favourites toO!!  And what he's doing to it is going to make it a winner for sure this time!
We're waiting Tweak!

[Really?]

It is hard on me to run the BOTM/BOTY becuase of all the great bikes that get put up on here.  I want one of these for myself and build it my way - got sooooo many ideas.  That's right, I do not own one of these, the wife got it, lol.  Pickin's are slimmer than slim down here.

[HedNut]

I wish I could send you one TipperT! I would.... you deserve it.

Now...are there any finished bikes for nominating!?  I guess I'm going to have to scour the project threads....

I set aside some time today to go back through 07/08/09 BOTM's.  Thought I would just post pic's of 12 I like, and see what happened.

But who rides it more?  my money is on you!

[Really?]

Actually, she has had more seat time that I have.  I have hand most of the hands on time though.  Oh , the cashflow into it has been all mine. lol

[Really?]

Found one if someone wants to nominate it.
