Here we go again! Keep it civil people and follow the rules, and nobody gets hurt.

Here's the scoop:

1. Nominate one of our member's bike for Bike of the Month - include some flattering pictures of the bike in question as well as a link to their build thread if they have one and their DTT user name.

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

3. Member has to accept the nomination

We will accept nominations until we get a reasonable number of nominees (5-10 or so).

Then a poll will be set up and voting will take place for the remainder of the month. Whoever ends the voting period with the most votes wins Smiley

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

There are PLENTY of deserving bikes, and I'm confident each month we will see lots of nominations.

Let the games begin! Post your nominations / seconds / acceptances here. Please don't clutter this thread up with your supporting posts!
 
BigR's project Vicarious: Ive ridden it, and I vouch for its badassary... Super clean, and super solid. A+ in my book.

I am nominating alakowicz KZ1000st Monoshock. It took some digging to find his build thread ... err, should I say threads ... but I have them all listed below. This is a great example of how to transform a vintage bike to a cafe and then not be satisfied and take it to the next level. Really freakin' amazing ...

I hope this worked, a lot of cutting and pasting!
 
Seconded rawfish. Sorry to see those pics there though. Hope you're ok champ.
 
While it's definitely an honor to be mentioned, there's no way I could possibly accept it. The bike is not done yet, and I wouldn't feel right trying to compete with bikes that are. But thanks guys - that means a lot.

On a side note - I was just checking in that Alacowics' bike was nominated and that somebody had 2nd'd it. Glad to see it has been!
 
I second DBC's fine little scooter but would love to see all the build links posted. You gotta prove that you didn't just buy it like that!
 
Plus it's too bloody hard to keep track of what's what and who's who here. Some of us old folks need a gentle reminder once in a while ;)
