I would never hang shyte on a hardly dangerous.....

but only because without people buying HD's and all the accessories that go with them, I'd never been able to afford the B12 or the M750

Well, my "creativity quotient" for most things requiring such talents approaches that of a fence post.....but occasionally I get lucky (no "woodie" jokes please)  :lol:

Here's #17 in her natural element in a couple of my favourite shots:


At the Continental Divide in the Rockies (about 1.5 hours west of CowTown) on the way home after the Labour Day trip last year.


This is in the Rockies on the highest paved road in Canada. This was the very first trip I took #17 on....even though it was just a day trip.


And, of course, this is the first hit of the starter button after I assembled her. What the heck, call me a sentimental fool, but it was a big day for me. My first new street bike in 36 years.....
Ignorance is curable. Stupidity is terminal.

I would like to see how good of a motorcycle photographer you are.  Add one or two of your best photo's


Solman, I took that to mean photos with motorcycles as the main subject, as if meant for the cover of a magazine or in an article. Photos meant to show off the bike, not the scenery or groups of bikes.

Is that what you had in mind?

They are all great pics though, I'm not criticizing anybody...  :bigok:

Basiccally what I meant was your money shots.  Shots that you took time to try and get the best lighting and back ground.  That is basically why I posted the title "Best pics"

I didn't take this, but it is a good one.
Should have been all Bandits.

If I didn't have a Suzuki, I would have a Kawasaki

That reminds me of two years ago, when I was living in Manhattan, and the motorcycle squad got their new scooters.

Police would effectively shut down a street to do maneuvers, then they'd all stop and park them in sync.

Thanks. I had originally skipped those when selecting my pics for my first post in this thread because I didn't think they were sharp enough.

I would love to go on a ride with that many Bandits.  Unfortunately, I know only 1 person with a B12 whom I ride with regularly.

Well, the pics were taken at a Banditfest... I was a little disappointed we could only get 8 to show up out of the entire Pacific Northwest between two sites - and the lodging & salmon dinner was free! (And two of the Bandits - the ones on each end of the shot - belonged to the host & his wife.)
