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 MUST MUST 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 should accept the nomination

4. Bike must be in running roadworthy condition - no basket cases - finish your bikes!

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

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.
 
I nominate Rich's GR650 cafe bike. Classy build by a classy fella!

Judging by the videos, this bike is as done as a project bike gets! Love it, man!
 
Seen the GR in person and the nomination is well deserved. Sweet bike! I'll second
 
I would like to nominate Noddy78's steampunk CB350. Here is a link to the build thread. I hope my photo actually posts, if not maybe someone can help me out.

schlumpf - members don't nominate their own bikes - I should make that more clear in the guidelines at the beginning of the thread. The Bike of the Month contest is an opportunity for members to recognize each other's creations.

So if there's a bike on the board that has inspired you, please feel free to nominate it. If someone has been inspired by your bike, perhaps you'll see it nominated for a BOTM contest either this month of one coming up.

To keep the thread clean I'm going to remove the earlier posts you put up with your pictures - no offence, just don't want people to be confused.
 
Wow......thanks a lot fellas. I'm truly flattered. Honestly, I'm speechless to be nominated and this time I accept. Aside from some small stuff here and there, the bike is done for a while.

And I would like to nominate Pete's GS450. For those of you that haven't followed along, he makes everything look like it's from the factory. I have a heck of a time trying to post pictures from my phone (can somebody help me out with this please?) but here's the link to his thread with the most recent "full body" pics:

I want to nominate the RD125 "Two stroke smoke"

A fine and fast cafe racer.With a good lightweight rider on board it would eat most 350's and 750's through real corners and hills.More cafe flavored than a coffee bean roasting.

seconded!
