This months winner was suggested by a member out in BC. I had seen the post in the Gallery section but hadn't really looked at it. When I went back and really had a good look, I liked a lot of what I saw. The owner really hit a lot of the high points on a bike of this type, and he did it with an old Magna. Nicely done.

So, congratulations Pitstop504, your 1984 Magna is August 2016's BOTM.

Deserved. Nice job. Honda could copy it and slap an updated 1400cc V4 in the frame and sell a bunch of them. But they won't.  :'(

With all the hack job bobbers out there its nice to see one that someone put some thought, imagination and effort into.

Well Done, not my style but I can appreciate all the love you put into this one. Welcome to the nut house.

That's one cool looking bike. I won't ask how much time you spent with her, but it has to be right up there with your day job. She's a beauty and one of a kind. Congrads!  :thumb :beer: :thumb
