Bike Of The Year

Every year someone has a chance to win Bike of the Year. They just need to turn up to the National Rally on an ST1100 or ST1300.
The guidelines for judging Bike of The Year are simple
For a bike to catch my eye it needs to make me want to jump on and ride it away because :-
1) It is clean and shiny to look at, with that sparkle glinting in the sun like brother "Abe" with a gold tooth
;
2) Any modification's enhance the ride and look like they may have been on the bike when it was in the showroom i.e. diesel conversion mod
3) The farkles don't take away from the sleek lines of a Goddess of a bike - Picture brother "Shiney" in a toga with gold wreath
Yep - Nice and simples
Bribes accepted in any form before the judging commences to ensure fair play during the judging process
Now is the time to start getting your bike ready for judging

So I guess the Wing after over 4,000 kms will miss out for more than one reason

It would still fail on point 1. It will be lucky to get a reasonable clean before leaving Perth and certainly won't get another until arriving back in Perth.

The 2016 Winner was a WA lad on a very nice 1100. He managed to get it clean so its do-able
