The votes are in,and the winner is.......... Congratulations Rmak!      A great choice! We should all pat ourselves on the back for our unparalleled taste in motorcycles,for picking this absolutely stunning machine. Although there are those who would have you believe this bike belongs to Ron somebody,in some trailer park in Ohio,I have it on good authority that it actually belongs to our own Rich M,who also lives in Ohio (but in a much more upscale trailer park). It wasn't always this pretty. Click here for a bit of backstory on the bike. Rich did a ground up restoration,and the results were,well,look for yourself.Superlatives fail me. Maybe Rich will give us some more pictures and details. Thanks everyone,for your participation,both as nominees and voters. Cheers! Bruce

Although there are those who would have you believe this bike belongs to Ron somebody. thanks for the complement Bruce much appreciated  Rich has restored that bike to perfection and theres no one happier then me to see it win. great bike great, and a good contributer to this site, its the one I picked, although there were bikes there just as good it would have been a hard choice for people to make, but this one required a lot more work and its a genuine classic so that convinced me, well done Rich and well deserved. |
