Default ***1600/1500 Classic/Nomad/Meanstreak/Maurader - Photo Contest***

I have a K&N Filter that fits vulcans listed below with less than 10,000 miles on it (its a 100,000 mile filter and cost $65). I have since moved up to the Caddman mod and won't be going back.

I am willing to use this as a prize for the best Vulcan photo entered into my little contest.

From now till the end of August, get out there on your Bike and get the best most beautiful picture you can (maybe you already have one?), and enter it into this thread. Find a nice setting, a mountainous backdrop, a shot at the beach, bikinni clad beauty atop your steed.....At the end of August, the judging committee (me) will look over all the entries and determine a winner

In 2 weeks, ya'll can find a picturesque spot and get a good shot hey?

good luck....may the best photo win (as we all know the 1500 is already the best bike)


K&N Part # KA-1596


EDIT - LETs KEEP IT FAMILY FRIENDLY...please


- UPDATE -

According to the K&N Website, the above filter I have will fit the following Kawasaki's

Are you sure you want to do this? I have a couple, ah, "Acquaintances", who if posed on the back, front, rear fender, front fender, would win the contest even it the bike was a ........ well, a bicycle with flat tires.

Now, off in search of a setting for the photo where we won't get arrested.

Hi, would you be interested in adding to the prize package? I make belt buckles and I would be glad to donate one to your efforts. It would also be a good way for me to get a little attention to what I do. However, I do not want to do anything on this forum that might be considered inappropriate. Let me know. Nice idea you had. Have fun.

You could start a contest of your own...

i have to limit my contest to the 1500's as I think this K&N only fits the 1500's....

if ya'll can let me know if this filter fits other rides, i'll gladly open it up to them here as well

UPDATE

after researching the K&N Filter website, I have learned that my K&N Pod will fit most of the big v-twin Kaws...therefore, I am opening up this little photo contest to any and all bikes in the list listed above

lets get them pictures in...

august 31 is the deadline for judging.

Is there a cash or alcoholic beverage alternative for those of us who have an aftermarket air kit?

Thank you, but they are both islands. But it would make a cool pic.
