OK... with a little prompting from grandpaul, I've put up a Bike of the Year vote. As far as I know, we haven't done this before and it's not an official thing, but it seemed fun, so here we go.

Voting ends at the end of January.

The winner has been promised a signed copy of grandpaul's book as well as a CAD drawing of the winner's bike.

To sweeten the pot, I'll throw in a photomosiac render of the winner's bike as well as a 7" sealed beam LED headlight.

Wow, too bad you can't vote 12 times. ::)
 
Re: Unofficial DO THE TON Bike of the Year - 2016

Cool idea!

It would be awesome if we could put together a DTT calendar for the following year with all of the BOTM winners. I know I'd be down for one.

Logan's done that before. I think I had a calendar from 2014?

If we thought monthly voting was hard....annual voting is...well, 12x harder ;)

I've voted for the bike I think epitomises the 'ton up culture' as it stands today.

Pick a mundane model with a cracking engine, improve and update the suspension to modern day standards, overcome engineering issues with integrity and innovation, then assemble it with glorious attention to detail.....all this carried out in his home garage as well.

Overall concept, build quality, engineering integrity, attention to detail and final finish all earn my admiration and vote....can you guess which one :)

Damn. This is shaping up to be a very close race.

The top NINE bikes are all within two votes of one another.

Get those votes in!
 
Re: Unofficial DO THE TON Bike of the Year - 2016

I'm not surprised there's so many in the running....that was bloody tough.

Finally made a decision for the Yamaha.

Same. There are a lot of really awesome Bikes. I love Jsjamboree's RD though!

To encourage more voting and give people a chance to choose more than one bike, I've extended the voting period by a couple of weeks and given each member 3 votes to use!
 
Re: Unofficial DO THE TON Bike of the Year - 2016

To use your additional votes, if you've already voted, you can now use the 'Remove Vote' option and then re-cast your vote. You get 3 choices - you can still only vote for each bike 1 time.

Make it count! Let people know!

Thank goodness for the 3 votes... still hard to narrow down tho :)
Great variety that's come up over the past 12 - little bit of everything!
Got to say my horizon's been broadened...

Just a heads up, the bike for April is not the winning bike. It should be Drewski's KZ1000

Dammit. My fault, sorry. I've fixed everything and reset the vote count.

Sorry, everyone, for the screw up.
