Run for their money??!!! Now, if ya wanna make part of the criteria for BOTM, that you spend more time riding than polishing...I might get onboard there. My bike looks like hell, but I can document over 26,000 miles in 18 months. There are others here that can do the same and more. My Sporty isn'tTOTALLY ugly. But certainly not a show bike...it's a bike that is rode, not garage art.
I know a buddy of mine who should put his bike up for nomination. By no means looks pretty but it probably has more custom stuff done to it by him then anything I know of.
Well okay. You all know that SRV's number one guitar looks like it was rode hard and put up wet. Maybe we should do a contest based on road warriors!
I love that idea! function over form! sometimes a new form results from function. you should see my 60s gibson SG special. played like hell by everyone whos had it. looks great even though its all beat up.
