December XSOTM Nomination thread

[gggGary]

It's December Nomination time!!
The first month was a great start to the contest, lets build on that!

Here's how it works:
First, someone "nominates" a bike they'd like to see in the XS650 of the month competition. Next, someone else "seconds" the nomination. Lastly, the owner accepts the nomination and they are in the competition.
First 5 bikes with an accepted nomination are in.

You can't nominate yourself! (However, you're encouraged to throw your bike out there for someone to else to nominate)

Nominees must be active members (logged in within the last month) and have at least 10 posts.

-- Nominators must post a photo.

Now on to the Nominations!!

C'mon TeeCat you can do it! It's fun and easy. The more the merrier and no one says you can only nominate one.

 

[TeeCat]

Well, I have always been infatuated with this one from Gordon Scott. So I think I'll toss it in the ring with big respect.

Gordon's and Screwloose's builds are the 2 that got me hooked.

Does anyone know if the handlebars on the bike gggGary nominated can be acquired? I have also been a big fan of Gordon Scott"s bikes. I wonder why more people don't throw a bit of rake into their builds. Sure looks good like that. I think he mostly concentrates on pipes and such rather then bike building for customers.

[littlebill31]

Wow, thanks, and I accept!!!

I would like to add that my bike was built by me, without the use of any power tools or air compressor. Except for a couple holes drilled with a cordless. Cutting a frame with a hack saw is a bitch. I did have the tail welded by a friend so it was done correctly.

They are custom, I made them myself... There is a whole build thread on that bike here:
