Nominate for Bike Of The Month - November 2011
« on: October 02, 2011, 03:43:36 PM »
It's Nominatin' Time!

October 2011 BOTM Voting Threadhttp://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=95822.0

Congratulations bwaller for being the October 2011 BOTM winner!

I will let this run until about 10/15/11 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.


*********************************************************************************

For those of you that may have forgotten or are unaware, this will be the last BOTM for 2011.  We have 11 BOTMs and 1 BOTY.  In the month of November, we will be voting for BOTY (ALL MONTH) and in December, we will nominate/vote for January.


*********************************************************************************

Check out the before/after thread if you are out of idea for this month.  There are some nice ones in that thread.
I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.

Just saw that turbo bike at the SLO vintage show.  Some pretty clean work on the whole bike.
