OCTOBER 2010 BIKE OF THE MONTH - VOTING! DAMN BIG FIELD THIS MONTH!!!

[Tim]

First off, this is the biggest group of incredible bikes we've had in a BOTM contest. I fully expect to see these bikes nominated again in future months and I'd love to see all of them grace the banner at some point.

Need people to post up photos / links etc. in this thread. Copy them over from the Nominations thread if you like.

Builders... start your engines! Get your info up here with pics etc. Get people voting for your creation!

Holy Crap...

 

[Tim]

Yeah - a bit much really Future BOTM's will be limited to 5 bikes I think.

There's alot of bikes this month! Crazy!
And proof of the talent our fellow ton-ers have!
Props to everyone participating.

Here is a link to my bikes build, I call it "The Repsol",
http://www.dotheton.com/forum/index.php?topic=15139.0
CB500T
Full elec.ign.
upgraded coils.
cdi.
hotter plugs
open exhaust
upgraded suspension
stretched swing arm
chopped/rebraced rear frame.
etc
I started out with a mix of many ideas influenced by many builders and friends.
The end result was this, much unintentionaly as alot of what I did evolved as the bike progressed, the only thing I was sure of since the start was that I wanted sporty, low and sleek, with a somewhat minimilistic look, then after everything with the help of Brandon and Micah, the team honda repsol themed paint job was chosen, and I ended up with this, what I call a vintage interpretation of the Honda repsol race bike.

I will try and get some glam shots asap and post any info I coulda forgotten in the thread.

GAH!


You beautiful bastards. Gonna have a bike nominated for BOTM some day. Calling my shot right now. Not saying I'm gonna win. But somehow, some day, mark my words!

 

[Rocan]

it was a tough one between two bikes for me. not saying the others arent amazing, they are, just had to slim it down.

but i had to give love to the builder who uses a few less computers than the other.

 

[dirtbag]

Thanks for your consideration, CC

Saw this bike in person earlier this year at the vintage bike show in Spencer NC. Attention to detail is the name of the game with this one, very very nice!

We talked only for a minute. I bought a 450 for my wife last x-mas and was really interested in some of the stuff you had done on your bike! Don't think I live too far from you if you are in Harrisburg, I'm out off of Lower Rockey River Rd.
