Builder's Best Custom Motorcycle Show • June 17-20, 2027 | Montana ExpoPark

The BMW Motorcycle Owners of America is presenting a custom motorcycle show to be held in conjunction with the annual National Rally at the Champlain Valley Exposition Center in Essex Junction, Vermont, June 11-13, 2026.

*Custom bike detail. Built by Zack Witkowsky of Black Wolf. This bike was built in 2022 for the MOA Foundation.*

The show is open to ALL CUSTOM MOTORCYCLE BUILDERS and will include awards for both BMW motorcycles and Open class.

The show runs Thursday through Saturday, June 11-13, 2026 with setup available from 9 AM to 6 PM on Wednesday, June 10. The show itself is open from 9 AM to 6 PM on Thursday and Friday and 9 AM to 4 PM on Saturday. The awards ceremony is at 3.30 PM on Saturday, and load-out begins immediately after the show closes at 4 PM on Saturday.

To compete for the cash prize of $1,000 in either the BMW Class or the Open Class, all you have to do is register, then bring your bike to the Builder's Best Custom Motorcycle Show! Motorcycles will be judged by rally attendees.

Your registration includes two complementary passes to attend the entire rally (Thursday through Saturday, and camp with us if you want to!). You'll get some rally swag, including a T-shirt. We hope you'll join us for our "Meet the Builders" social on Thursday night, and take advantage of some of the daily talkback and presentation options for builders. Register now!

For more information or to register your bike for the show, contact Sue Aldridge.

The inaugural Builder's Best Bike Show in 2025 featured 18 motorcycles across the BMW and Open classes. Rallygoers enjoyed seeing the bikes, talking to the builders and of course voting for their favorites! Winners in both classes received $1,000 and a handmade, custom trophy.

The Builder's Best Bike Show will be back for 2026. Until we have more information, please enjoy the photos of the 2025 bikes.
