Nominate for Bike Of The Month - July 2011
« on: June 01, 2011, 08:29:01 PM »
It's Nominatin' Time!

June 2011 BOTM Voting Threadhttp://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=89254.0

Congratulations jessezm for being the June 2011 BOTM winner!

I will let this run until about 5/15/11 and then start the voting thread.

Please Nominate, Second and Accept using those words.  It makes it easier for me to setup the voting threads.  It gets cryptic at times.
I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.

How 'bout Johnny5's ?     Very clean.   A bit different, but a well done, tasteful cafe.  Lots of nice subtle touches.

I like my women a little big. Natural. Now, they shave this and wax that. It's not right. I love natural women. Big women. This trend in women has to go. Bulomia, anorexia. That's just wrong.
