Attention Hot Bike Readers! We would like to start by asking you, the reader, to help us with your ride submissions. There is no shortage of Readers' Rides coming across the editor's desks; however, only about 1/4 of them can be used. The reason: bad photos, little or no info about the bike, and even worse, no contact info to get better photos or the needed bike specs. So before you put a stamp on that envelope or send out that e-mail, make sure that you have filled out the basics: Your name, phone number and/or e-mail, where you're from. Then fill out a spec sheet-all you need to do is copy the info from the magazine: Motor, tran, frame, wheels, and so on. Last, a brief history about you and your bike. Now that you know exactly what we're looking for, we can't wait to see what you're going to send in. Thanks!
Silver Bullet
Jeff Trammel from Cincinnati, Ohio, has always loved a variety of bikes. Jeff bought his Road Glide in 2007 and then spent two years customizing it. Jeff charges around town flying like a silver bullet blowing every motorcycle off the street. Angry stares from all sides of the road at the silver Glide don't bring down Jeff's spirits for he knows his prized motorcycle only makes others envy him.
Bopper's Bob
Steve "Bopper" Bopp from Ruyadh, Saudi Arabia gets off from riding his Street Bob all around the sandy roads of Saudi Arabi. Some people think Steve is weird for wanting to "ruin" his Street Bob by customizing it, but he just laughs in their faces. Steve knows that owning a Harley is all about making the bike "yours" which is exactly what Bopper did.
Beginner's Luck
Christopher Pitts from Jackson, Kentucky, had a dream to build a bike that would stand out and be original among the others. His creation took a year to build in his garage just by the work of his own hands. The good news is, for it being the first bike he's ever built, it's a hell of a bike.
