I know this is in its infancy but can each photo become a hyperlink to a build thread if it is available?

Interesting.
Makes me think.
If Ben built the ultimate Monster Nutter Streetfighter,
better than anything ever seen, and it was 100% my
ultimate dream bike, BUT he built it for a customer on
here, would anyone vote for it?
I probably would.
To me its less about the builder/owner/cost and more
about how disirable I find the finished product.
I may be alone here.
Hence my query about the Ducati...
does "BUILT NOT BOUGHT " ring a bell
If any of the owners of the bikes above can edit their build threads to incorporate the missing photos, that would be very cool. If you still have them of course (the photos I mean, not the bikes).
That's certainly part of the equation too.
Like I said earlier - I don't think it matters if it's a Ducati Streetfighter or a shed built slabby. The people who care enough to vote on here will know a factory bike v's a home built one and will vote accordingly.
One thing I've seen on another forum that might work in future is that someone ELSE has to nominate a members bike, and it has to be seconded by ANOTHER member to qualify as BOTM. Not sure if we have the numbers to make that work, but it seems like a pretty fair way to get your bike entered.
Members here usally have a build thread (part of the point of the site I thought) so does it really need to be that hard ? If we know the member and the bike we will know pritty much what has been "Built".
On a side note If Ben from Extreem did a Bought and payed for Build that ended up posted here in the fighter of the month thread and I liked it. I'd vote for Bens bike and expect ben to get the award, not the cashed up owner.
Yes it does, and most on here are,
but if a bike is pro built in part or full and I think
its a better bike I'd vote for it. To me I'm not patting
the builder on the back, be it Extreme Creations or a
Garden shed, I'm saying which bike I like.
3 of my favourite bikes on here are budget home builds
but I still judge on the finished product not its build.
Interesting though.
LOL
Judge
mmmmmmm lemon fresh

well done mate
Nice one Deano
Well done Dean, your machine is a weapon and its well deserved.
Good work Deano, congrats
Congrats deano!
Thanks a bunch guys. It was not an easy build or cheap for that matter. A lot of time has gone into it but all worth it in the end.
It was not all my own doing. Like all these builds of this size there was a lot of help from others
A big thanks to latheboy (Ivan) he did a lot of the machining for me and did a great job. Not to mention the use of a dyno dynsmics dyno for tuning. I am in much debt to you from this build alone.
Shano sorted out the wiring from scratch. So we went from nothing to a full loom including ecu loom with zero issues and all the smoke stayed in the wires
Gibbo sorted out the paint. Did a great job can't complain at all
Exben for helping me out with advice over the phone on a number of occasions
Booster for advice and tuning help
Nice one big buddy! Congrats!
Nice one Deano. Well done mate.
