Ultimate Builder Custom Bike Competition Launched

A new elite-level custom motorcycle builder contest, dubbed the Ultimate Builder Custom Bike Competition, has just been launched in the United States, under the form of a nationwide tour. Contestants are encouraged to enter any of the 12 shows for a chance to win part of the more than $90,000 cash.

Three cash prize winners will be chosen at each show with a special American Championship finale set to take place during Daytona Bike Week, March 9-12, 2011. With more than 500 custom-built bikes on display across the country, the Ultimate Builder Custom Bike Show is close to becoming the largest touring custom bike competition in North America.

“Our partnership with Biker Pros Media and affiliation with the AMD World Championship, coupled with the built-in visibility from more than 600,000 motorcycle enthusiasts who attend our motorcycle shows, has positioned this contest to be a must-enter for custom bike builders,” said Progressive International Motorcycle Shows VP and General Manager Tracy Harris. “No other competition will offer this much exposure to custom bike builders or the chance to become the definitive American Champion of custom bike building.”

The Ultimate Builder Custom Bike Show will have a three class format with motorcycles categorized as freestyle, modified Harley or performance custom. Judging will be conducted by the competitors themselves, with the top five builders in each class receiving awards, as well as a special “people’s choice” award will be given to the builder who receives the most votes from show attendees.

“This will be the largest, most professional and prestigious series of custom bike shows in the country and this collection of priceless motorcycles will create an awe-inspiring display not to be missed on this year’s show circuit,” said Bike Pros Media Partner Bob Kay, the agency managing the Ultimate Builder Custom Bike Show competition.
