Vote for the XS650s you'd like to see in the 2025 XS650 Calendar!
It's time to Vote!
This will be the 13th year for the XS650 Calendars! As usual, Shawn (samoran1) is putting them together for us. The nomination stage is over and there are 31 bikes to vote for this year!
Click here to see the nomination thread.
This is the voting thread. There will be 13 bikes in the calendar (the calendar will include January 2026). The bike with the most votes will be on the cover and also have its own month. Voting will end in 20 days on October 21st at 10:40 AM CDT. You can vote for as many bikes as you want (multiple selections allowed). You can only submit your votes once, and only existing members will be able to vote. Accounts created after the time of this post won't be able to vote.
Nominees, feel free to post more photos and details of your bike in this thread. If you want me to replace any of the photos in this post, let me know via private conversation. I used what was provided in the nomination thread. I will post up to two photos of each bike in this post. You can add more to this thread in your own post.
For the top 13: To get these calendars printed and shipped on time, samoran1 needs all of the pictures for the calendar ASAP after the voting ends. Once the voting is underway, if you see that you're doing well, get your pictures and information ready to send. You will need to send several high-quality photos of your bike (with no logos or watermarks), your name, location, bike year/model, and SHORT bike bio via email to Shawn. There is more information about photos and other details in the nomination thread. Please review the notes about taking photos. You need to be the owner of the photos or have permission to use the photos for the calendar. In the event that people are unable to supply photos in time, the next runner-up will be included instead. So, the close runners-up (14, 15, and 16) may wish to have photos ready to send in.
After the voting is complete and the calendar is put together, a thread will be created with the final product and a link to order. There will be a limited time to order, so check back often for the ordering thread. A link to the ordering thread will be posted in this thread as well.
Thank you to everyone who has helped make this calendar happen so far!
