These are all very worthy of the vote, but mine has gone to Winnie, in memory of a true gentleman and great contributor to this forum.

I have to do some cogitatin' on this myself. Dressers, customs, a really nice LTD, and Roady of course. I'm going to take a bit of time on this. I don't want people thinking I'd just automatically vote for the one with the Webers.

Oops, wrong place to vote, anyway, it was tough to choose just one. So many good ones, hard to narrow the field down.

I got my vote in. It's a secret so don't ask.
I'm a little put out that nobody even attempted to offer me a bribe.

I never knew Roady but it's obvious that he made a big impression on a lot of you guys.
It's also apparent that he had a pretty nice Goldwing.

But... when casting my vote for the bike that I like the best, I have to give it to Oldewing.

I have to agree. He was a great guy. And deserves notice on the site. But this is about bikes and the amount of work that has gone in them. Hard to beat the amount of work that has gone into Oldewings

Roady was a great friend and we rode together many times. Even after he hung up his boots we remained friends and I miss him a lot. Dontwantapickle summed it up in the highlighted sentence above. We have to vote for the bike that grabs your attention. Based on that, I couldn't even vote for my own entry.
