  1. Huh! Only one vote ----- and that's probably my own..................Last time I enter a knobbly knees competition.
     
  2. Are my votes coming via royal mail? Fook me what have you got to do to get some recognition! Haha. I take, imo, a pretty boring bike and make it quite interesting. At least I got one vote. Haha.

  3. I've got it! Re morgage the house, buy an already top notch bike and bolt on as many priceless racing bits as possible! Haha (oh and no offence intended!):biggrin:
     
  4. Not so Bill, for me it's not about the money, it's about the hard work and thought that's gone into it. BUT, it still has to look good! I bet my shed built bike cost less than yours money wise :upyeah: Your bike has obviously had a lot of very hard work to convert it to what it is now. But as an ex ST owner I feel qualified to say you can't polish a turd, but you have rolled it in glitter :wink: No offence intended!
     
  5. Haha. I know. His bike is the dogs danglies. I knew someone would bite. :upyeah:

  6. Funny, that's what nmy missus says about our sex life...I don't care I still won..
     
  7. I'd vote yours Nick if Shooter hadn't stole your thunder. Kevs is clean too. As is the black 999. Oh and the 851 gives me a semi.

    I just like shooters though because I craves a bevel 900ss.

  8. it was a hard choice voting as there are a lot of good bikes to vote for
    have to admit the new breed of full faired bikes are not my cup of tea i can appreciate the bikes though
    classics one offs and 851's spoiled for choice :upyeah:
     
  9. I voted for the black 999, not Glidds though. Sorry Glid.
     
  10. People do realise voting for their own is bad form, right?!

  11. Its not x factpr ffs
     
  12. Haha yes. I just voted for the one which I considered to be the most technically challenging. :biggrin:
     
  13. Well we now have a prize fund for the eventual winner. I received a great suggestion that the winner receives some tickets to a MotoGP / Superbike / BSB round of their choosing, but as this isn't cast in stone, I'm open to other suggestions too.
    I'm also getting around to actually commissioning a trophy, so if you're still to vote, there is still plenty of time.
    Speaking of which, why hasn't anybody voted for my bike :tongue::tongue:

  15. Well........I'm glad I didn't win...........there's no way I would some mouldy old tickets to watch bike racing, especially if they are concrete or stone.......

    As for the trophy...........how long does it take to cut a big piston in half, polish it and turn it into an ashtray? I bet that's what Darren would have done......

  18. I struggle to fid the vote/results, sticky linky thing for us crap pc boyz would be nice
     
  19. The results wont be fully declared until 1st Feb. TO see how things are standing, head on over to the voting thread, once you have voted, you will be able to see how the poll is standing :upyeah:
     
  20. I'm just chuffed to be in the company that I am, Koen's and Paul's bikes are both stunning, and don't forget Shooter's :upyeah:
