If I've used the wrong photo or otherwise messed up, tell me!
Nominees - post up your build stories, notes, glamour shots, nude pics... whatever you think will win you the votes. No negative ads, no super-pacs. Anyone can chime in to support their choice but not by diminishing another bike.
All the nominees are worthy of our banner - I'd be proud to have them all up there. Give it some thought and make your vote count!
What the hell kind of sadistic episode is this?? Put me up against Eddie? My heart belongs to Eddie's TX, but Christine may kill me if I even think about it...how will it end?
Stay tuned for another gut wrenching edition of "As The Stomach Churns"...
This is the first time I'm ever having to pull off silly things to choose between bikes. I mean real silly stuff like I don't like the indicators or so and so looks bodgy. I dunno how I'm gonna pick one otherwise!

LOL, ahahahahaa Tyler, you make me laugh.
I think your bike is in a class of it's own. You push the limits on creativity. Every bike on here is well deserved, and each one is a gem. After all the hard work you've put into your machine, you better vote for your own bike. ;-)
On the other hand. I hate that phot of my bike up there because it is not the finished product. Not that any of our bikes ever are.
But I agree with staffy's way to pick his choice. Although it is discriminatory, I think it's good and healthy. Most of the bikes that get put up on the banner end up ans serve as inspiration for the next builder to come along side.
Here is the pic I would much prefer of my bike, Since the upholstery of my fiberglass seat is not yet done.
Which reminds me I need to get better photos of my bike.
I'm guessing this is my last go-round, and the competition has never been so fierce. Honored to be in the running once again, but i agree, after putting my vote towards my own bike for two months, i decided i wanted to get back to the principles of the BOTM and vote for the one i like the best...my hat is off to you teazer. That build has inspired me. Thanks again jack for the nomination, again. lol.
Yup, just voted for a bike I have previously voted for - I'm sure it will one day
I guess if people really like a bike or a builder has a strong following, chances are a bike will keep being nominated until it wins or people get tired of nominating it. Maybe a bike should have to have a "rest" from being nominated once it has been nominated a specific number of times over a certain period.
Anyway some cool bikes again this month, but there can never be too many Kettles in this world.
If I had to keep track of which bikes were nominated in previous months and vetted each new nomination against that list to ensure a bike didn't pass some 'limit' I'd call it a day
Fewer rules the better. If it becomes a chronic problem then we'll see what happens, but there's never anything stopping people from nominating lots of new bikes and for those making nominations to consider moving on after a bike has been in the running for a couple months. Always free to come back at a later date - our bikes are always changing anyhow so sometimes it might be better to give it a few months and nominate again when some changes have been made.
My first time voting here, came down to two for me... went with the one that I thought "that's pretty cool... I'd never build one like that but it's pretty cool!"
As for the rules, I agree the fewer number of rules the better. I think if continuous nominations are an issue, it'd be best to leave it up to the builder on an honor basis. If you've been nominated x number of times already, don't accept the nomination. No official rule to enforce it, keeps it simple for everyone involved. If someone accepts six nominations in a row anyway, so be it. An unwritten rule as it were.
Yep, in fact, mine changed last night into its 'other' form, and assisted the local authorities in apprehending a weapons heist at a local armory. Crazy...
