****BOTM Contestants are not allowed to solicit votes thru posts or threads on the forum. Any threads that are created will result in that thread being removed, any vote gained during that time being removed, and possible disqualification depending on the severity of the offense. Any general members who do the same to support said members, will also be removed and the votes removed as well.****
The voting booth is open. Good luck everyone, may the best bike win.
Voting Rules
For your vote to count you must be an active member or your vote will be voided, it will not count. This means you need either 5 posts in last month (April 2008), or 5 inthe currentmonth(to date)if you are a member that joinedbetween05/01/08 and 05/31/08.
The way this will be monitored is, we have controls that allow us to see each vote made, what day/time it's made and who made it. After the contest is over, I will go thru the vote count for each member and check the voter's profile. If a vote was made by a non active member, the vote will be taken off the final Poll vote tally after the contest is over. Example
Bike #1 received 125 votes on the Poll and had 10 non active member votes, the final tally would be 115 votes, so an apparent win in the poll, might not be the actual winner. I think this is fair and we have nothing to hide here, feel free to PM me if you have any questions on this.

I've also re-wired the entire bike from the ground up to use circuit breakers and a turnkey ignition. Anything that wasn't
legally
or
absolutely necessary was removed, stomped on, and burned until it was NO MORE, or used to make new parts.
MUCH more to come, this year I'm going full stage 3 from the cases up and re-building the entire bike from the ground up.&
