few new peeps suddenly popping up on the site, could they be americans casting votes ?  surely Atari wouldn't get his mates to join just to vote ? na its to far fetched , just my imagination running wild again

WoW...I'm a little hurt by that statement.  I'm pretty sure anyone on any of the sites could attest to my character and know that I would never ask anyone to vote for one of my bikes...nor have I ever asked anyone too.

If I had voted for my own bike in the initial voting...I actually would have won by one vote...LOL.  See for yourself below.





wow tom it was your bikr i copied off mate

noticed a few newbies popping up too and casting votes, but i can vouch for tom, he is the best guy in the states i have dealt on many occasions with, a true gent, and like he says he voted for neils build if he had been a bit more selfish we would'nt be having this vote off would we :daumenhoch:

Hey Neil...well then...you know that I am partial to anything Rupe...  :daumenhoch: .

I mean seriously though...the amount of work you put into that bike.  Taking a Cali/Expert f/f and well....you know the rest.  I find myself searching this old thread out every now and then.  I love the before and after pics of all the work done to each component.

That is why you got my vote.

Interesting replies people.....obviously struck a chord ?   Granted we are all different, and I do appreciate your interests all the same. But for me wheels are for riding.
If I had a choice both would win for all the work gone into them, but a winner would be the one that gets ridden, it has more soul.  :4_17_5:
Am I being negative ? :)

i think a bike thats built and unridden has soul too , the personal choices peeps make on parts etc , plus some are built cause thats what they had when younger , thats part of their history

Not just negative a bit naive also, some of the bikes on here are way to fragile and expensive to ride.  Having a bike to ride is ace and most of us do have one, but bikes that are very rare cannot be ridden as they were intended as they could break and if you owned it you would be gutted.

Sean he has a point though as do you, how about a new category in next years BOTY, a rider category, any bikes built this year to race with.
Should be a bit different, i hold my hands up and say yeah i would'nt ride the bikes i have as like you said too expensive, but a cheap rider build could be interesting in next years competition.
