Big congrats to V3ROD for his 1st place win in the water-cooled at the HOG rally in Spain with his skull rod. He beat the old enemy "goldminger" (see earlier post).

The win was great, but the real deal was that not only did he design and build the bike himself but also that he rode the bike there and back, some 3500 miles. It was noted that most of the winners at the show arrived with their bikes in a feckin crate and struggled to start when called.

Nice one mate! :notworth:

Congrats to him! You guys have some pretty wild lookin V's over there!

Riding it in is the only way to go. Sweet pipes too. Congrats!

Great looking bikes!
Is that a burn mark on the inside of the right pant leg (pic #1) down by his ankle? I guess without heat shields on the pipes this may be pretty common? Yikes!

Good win, yours looks fantastic in that gorgeous sunshine!

I always thought that "Goldminger" was a US bike but it turns out its from St Albans, UK. Unbelievable amount of work gone into it, but....... it damn fugly! (IMHO, apologies to the owner etc, he likes it, blah blah)
