IIRC, Chris' bike (burn-z) was the first to be featured in SSB from the forum that wasn't stretched or drag inspired.


Congrats to the OP on the feature. :thumbup

I saw that last week when the issue came out. I figured I'd wait for you to post it up. Congrats Jovan. Your build is without a doubt one of my all time favorites and it just keeps getting better. I remember the guy that won this years SSB Yamaha build contest when he came here begging for votes (had a Honda VFR single sided swinger and not much else) and ended up getting banned because we didn't give him the feedback he was expecting. I told him his bike wasn't even in the same league as yours and he got all pissy.

This should've been the TRUE winner of the SSB build-off. Great job brother again and congrats on the feature :bow

I was thinking the same thing, but held my tongue when he came on here :lol

Thanks for the nice compliment DouglasyzfR1:cool:
SSB didn't want a half naked chick to model next to my R1 because they wanted to show the whole entire bike with all the detailed parts I added to it:corn

Thanks "mvera" for the kind words:tocoo: I was shocked that I made the feature in SSB magazine knowing that I didn't take 1st at MotoGP Laguna Seca this year but I am very honored that I was selected based on my long expensive list of upgrades:fact I know I definitely put a lot of work & :dollar into my build which took me 7 1/2 years:beer

Thanks so much for the kind words, I really appreciate it. To be honest, I never thought building my R1 could be this much fun. I'm glad I can be such an inspiration to you and other fellow members on this forum:rock:riding:thumbup
