    woohoo!! Had a LOT of lookers and cell-phone-picture-takers and even a couple of photographers snappin' pics of the bike. :D
    They do trophies where Sponsors pick a recipient for their trophy, but I'm still geeked about bringing home some hardware :thumbup1: Next week will be the Bikefest on the Grand,where all voting is done by the public so we'll see how she does there.. :thumbup1:

    That ain't braggin'! There is a difference between bragging and sharing a work of art with the masses. VERY well done. She's a beauty!

    i bet if you put on a 1980 engine cover without "yamaha" on it, half the harley riders would ask, "What kind of harley is that?"

    Only the ones who can't count... oh, wait...

    I'm in agreement with Lt. Dave; not at all my "cup o'tea" when it comes to bikes, but the workmanship and overall results are fantastic. A well-deserved award, and likely the first of many. You earned it.
