Four bikes enter, one bike leaves.

Welcome to the April 2013 Ride of the Month Battle. If you don't know the rules by now, here they are:

1. Only contestants and staff can post in this thread. All other posts will be deleted.
2. Only one vote per IP. Any attempts to cheat and you will face the wheel.
3. I thought there was a 3rd rule, but I can't remember it. If there is a 3rd rule, then it applies here.

Now on to the contestants in no particular order:

CorruptFile





Doug_




KenG




Clansman






I hope you're all happy. Not only did I miss the beginning of the Caps game while posting this, but my little girl started watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse instead. This is going to get ugly.

Regardless, some really cool bikes this month. Best of luck to everyone, and let me know if you'd like me to use a different main pic of your bike.

OH thats ok. The great 8 has got nothing on my 22+33 finesse

I guess here goes the shameless pandering for votes :P

Basically what we got here is a 1987 600F1. Bike was downed before I got it and needed extensive bodywork to get it back to one piece. That resulted in the flame job you see now. I don't have an extensive list of expensive **** that I put on the bike, its not worth alot and is not uber fast, so that carbon fiber tire hugger aint gunna do sht. What is is is a strong running 25 year old bike with a couple things done to make it better, including:
- Factory Pro shift kit
- Delkevic SS70 9" stubby pipe
- 6000K HID kit, with a relay mod
- LED 6 pc LED accent lighting.
Along with some custom made decals, red anodized levers and footpegs. It's a simple bike with a strong heart that has never left me stranded, which is mopre than I can say for many of my friends. So in a way, this is a way to give it her due.

They played well tonight. Penguins lost too... Which means my hawks don't need to sweat the choke last night at Vancouver.

4 nice ones this month. Tough decision.

The curse needs to be broken sooner or later. Hopefully sooner!
