WHAT ARE THE JUDGING RULES? 

  • There are no defined judging criteria. The judges will select winners based solely on their own determinations. The decisions are theirs to make and not subject to review or appeal.
  • No pro-builds will be posted to the website. Business names cannot be used in the build copy or on images of the motorcycle.
  • What class the bike is entered into will be determined by the entrant. The Garage Build Crew will review the project submission before posting to the site. If it is determined a bike is better suited for a different class than chosen by entrant, it will be moved before being placed on the site.
  • In order for a motorcycle to be posted on the Garage Build website, you have to provide a few good photos and some detailed copy regarding your build. The Garage Build staff will determine if enough content has been provided to qualify for a Garage Build posting. If the submission did not meet our criteria, we will inform you of the decision not to post the build.
  • Motorcycle builds cannot be submitted more than once per contest.
