OK here it is, the fifth V-Twin Forums Ride of the Month event for 2017.

In keeping with the previously voted on format, this month is an open event. Any V-Twin scooter can be entered. Long as you own it, it plays.

So now it's riding season more or less across all of the states, so there should be plenty of riders out and about. So take a photo or two and enter em up.

Just to make things sporting, this month the 2nd and 3rd place entries will carry over to the end of year events. That three scooters moving into the run off rounds.

As always, please remember to format those entries properly. And keep comments on topic in the entry thread. Don't re-post entry photos in your quotes. Save the fun and harassment for the poll threads.

Model:
Eng size:

It will show up in a new 'poll' post that keeps a tally of votes.

This will happen when Therm is damn good and ready.

Well...when's votin' hapenning? I am anxious to see if what I hear is true...that green is the new black?!

How is that 'bribe fund' doing?

The best chance for a win in these parts, is to gain the support of 'the cult'. Money and beer are equally effective as a bribe medium.

Wow! That is some sweet scooter!

Should we just skip the vote and declare a winner?

I wonder how much road time it gets.
