A question about style and title

[mainlinecoffee]

Hey everybody this may be a odd question but I am stumped. There is a motorcycle rally in my called little sturgis and I was thinking about crusing out there and maybe hitting the bike show...my main questions are these: there are three catagorys I could call under. Rat,bobber,metric cruser or old school chopper...what would this bike fall under? Also this may be a bit of a opinion but would I have a chance In hell of walking away with third place in my catagory?
A bit about the bike,it is a 01 gz250 18 inch apes,1 of a kind rear frame rear fender off a road king tank and seat off a sportster podded jetted with dragish pipe,hand clutch foot shift and a ugly ass owner.

Sliding around on the ice....to clarify I cleaned up the wiring finally...I figure for how many stares questions compliments and pictures I get on this thing I may as well try to take a trophy....and how in gods name do I get these pictures right side up?

I turned the monitor upsidedown. :lmao:

Sorry bout that,I think there's some trouble where I took the pics on a iphone

[alantf]

What I do, if I take a picture sideways, is bluetooth it to "my pictures" on the computer, then right click brings a dropdown list with an option (amongst many) to turn the picture. Dunno if this helps you, but it's the best I can come up with. :coffee:

You can either edit the image orientation in the iphone itself or you can edit the image after it has been downloaded onto another device.

I would think maybe RAT class. Enter it. See what happens and let us know.

My computer is dead,I will try the edit orientation on my next photo,thanks for the tip! And rat was my first guess too,i guess we will see..it's the only bike that I have ever owned to stop two lanes of traffic because a couple guys hop out at a red light to get better pictures,there must be some appeal. I didn't really have much to go by when I built it but I think it's pretty sweet.

[jonathan180iq]

Are those brake lights off of an MG Midget?

[mainlinecoffee]

Yeah I had one sitting on my living room table for the longest time,finally went to good use.

[mainlinecoffee]

Well made it to the rally,three hours through the gate I was sopping wet and freezing. Finally slept and someone stole my full gas can from off the side of my bike,take a walk and some drunk pricks give me the rundown on why I should finish there whiskey,right before the fat one puked on my boots. Second day is sucking just as bad. Won second place in rat class and bullshitted around for a bit,I have sence then had to panhandle gas money because I spent mine on oil when I realized I was almost a half qt low due to leaky head gasket,ran out of gas on the interstate and had half the contents of my bag lost,mostly tools my trophy and my oil....I can't shake this feeling that I must have really pissed off a witch doctor or something...fuck it.

Sounds like a really sucky weekend overall. Congrats on the trophy though. Stuff happens but don't let it get you down. You did get there and back un-injured with a story to tell.

[mainlinecoffee]

Yeah after a good nights sleep Ive decided it was a pretty great trip but with really low low points,was still a good time though,mostly.

[Rookie Rider]

Congrats on taking 2nd place. Your bike looks great.

[mainlinecoffee]

Thank you! I think it's pretty sweet... Here's a pic of the guy that beat me

[mainlinecoffee]

I'm no doctor but I think this thing is a chopper not a rat...

[studysession]

thanks for sharing this - your bike rocks

[grasshopper]

Congrats on winning 2nd. Sorry about the harsh moments during the weekend. The good and bad normally come together, that's how we can tell the difference between the two. Bike looks cool! I think that other bike is a chopper from what I see.

[mainlinecoffee]

Thanks for the kind words grasshopper,all in all I have no regrets but I may not be so quick to roll out there next year. I think the judges were on drugs but that's just me.
