bike 1 ,,,,,,,,, has it been up before,or is there a lot of joe;s
bike 2 ,,,,,,,,, looks like a toy,,, bad photo
bike 3 ,,,,,,,,, a honda as we know it, with minimal mods
bike 4 ,,,,,,,,, gawd, aeorsohole heaven again !
bike 5 ,,,,,,,,, are ya fekin serious,,, ! shock and horror

is there enough emoticons to express this months roll call, or the laugh someone is havin getting them there in the first place.

sprock knows i have no doors, i just say it,
and sorry if anyone owning these are offended, they are purely my own opinions
i believe honda make a great bike, and it should be the way it rolls off the factory floor, with only comfort, and tasteful mods done by the unprofessional home mechanic.

bike 3 got my vote . (before i read this thread) honest !
i didn't have a dam clue what 5 was.

maybe a reason why,, when my bike was up for rotm last year,, that i didn't have a chance against such modified machines.lol

rant over. and i'm away out to the shed to get a grinder to the bird.

Sometimes Ken, originality is to be applauded, other times owners ingenuity

I appreciate both. And I think Josh's skill is to be commended. It is a very tidy example of the genre. Which is why I voted for it - and it's a CBR1000F

Cheers, SB

KenG's a "Traditionalist" - and that's good too.
I think every bike and every owner wants his bike to be "special" to HIM
I like a traditional bike "off the production line" too
BUT
I have to applaud the efforts that some of our members go to, to make their bike into something "special"
Sometimes this is due to unavailability of resources, or the parts are just impossible to find or are too expensive, or the owner just wants it to be different...........
Whatever the reason, ingenuity and effort will get my vote............

Be quick with that Josh, I'm keen to see the final result, as no doubt others will too. What colour bud?

Good job josh, it is about time we had a 1000f that can win on it's own merit! Your bike is a work of art imo.
