Let's try this again! I didn't mean to forget or exclude anyone from the voting, so here we go.....
It's Official, You should be out on your bikes here in North America! It's June, the sun is shining, the tornadoes and storm systems are moving in, women's clothes are disappearing, and the build off is finally over! No more frosty hands on wrenches or keyboards folks, and we are all happy about that!
We had 47 entries this year, which is up from last year by a handful! Unfortunately, we also had less completed builds, but that's not to say that the work attacked was not substantial. Frames were designed and built, swingarms were swapped, wiring was attacked, metals were cut, shaped and welded, body pieces created and/or modified. What I'm trying to say is that MF'ing work was done this year!
With only 7 complete, out of the almost 50 entries, it's clear that some serious work was bitten off since it wasn't finished, but I am still looking forward to seeing a number of these builds completed (*cough* fathead, one80auto, bigben, xavier and more)!
Enough chatter. Kudos and Rep to everyone who competed and congrats to those who completed their builds!
So in random order here are the finalists for you to read thru and vote upon as the winner of the 2011 Custom Fighters WInter Buildoff!

as usual, I'm not posting pics, because I want everyone to actually look thru the build threads before voting, so please spend a few minutes browsing these talented guys threads and give us a vote!
