Here are the Nomination Rules:

1. Nominate one of our members' bikes for Bike of the Month - include up to 3 flattering pictures of the bike in question. This is an opportunity to recognize someone who's bike has inspired you. So please don't nominate your own bike - make sure you have a well detailed build thread, post up in the Show n Shine area etc. and if enough people like your bike, someone will nominate it and maybe you'll see it as our banner in an upcoming month!

The Nomination MUST be accompanied by the member's User Name, a link to the thread where their bike is best described (Build thread, Show n Shine etc.) and a PHOTO of the bike in question.

2. Someone seconds the nomination (please only second one nomination)

3. Member MUST accept the nomination - If you're nominating a bike, make sure you're in contact with the owner, that they want the bike included and they accept the nomination. The Nominee should provide some back-story on the project, especially if there is a limited build thread already in place.

4. Bike must be in running roadworthy condition - no basket cases. I know our bikes are never really 'finished' but it should be on the road and roadworthy.

5. If a bike has been nominated in the previous month it should not be included in the current month's contest. Skip a month and nominate in a subsequent month.

6. Bikes that have won in prior contests should not be included unless they have been modified significantly.

We will accept nominations for a few days till we have a good selection to a limit of 5 bikes per contest.

A poll will be set up and voting will take place for a week or so depending on timing. Whoever ends the voting period with the most votes wins :D

Ultimately the voters will decide!

As a reward, we will use a picture of the winner's bike on the site banner for the following month.

Well let's try to get 1 or 2 more nominations up to make it a contest!
 
Thank you gentlemen!!! I'm honored to accept. So many great bikes on this forum I'm hoping to see more nominations!
The owner has managed to put about 4,000 miles on it already, which ought to cover the road worthy requirement. Sadly, it's in a shipping container now, on it's way to Australia. :'(
 
Can't have a BOTM contest without at least 2 bikes folks - get to work and dig up a worthy competitor to the Yammy!
 
That mosquito is cool as all get out, but the Mobius 350 would get an approval from Yamaha themselves, looks like a spec built P-Type and has 4000 miles on the clock sense the build... Yeah my vote is in.
 
Thank you brother cyclefreak and Brother hurco550! The bike is not roadworthy today like the rules state as we have new Mikuni flat slide carburetors ordered and on the way to replace the factory carburetors and we are getting ready to drill the front brake disc, etc. however I spoke with brother bluesmokey74 this morning and we would be honored to accept the nomination if it is ok with brother tim and all of the members here. I have always been very proud to be a member here so it is a great honor to see the work that brother bluesmokey74 and I have done together on this RD350 be recognized and appreciated by our fellow builders! Thank you all for always showing us so much support for this build!
 
Had to go back to your build to see you still have a few minor details left. Looks plenty close enough to roadworthy to be accepted in my book and conforms to the spirit of the rule! Awesome bike Joe! Loved following your build. Wish I had your resolve for documenting!
 
OK - it's a 2-stroke 2-bike contest. Voting thread to follow today.
