Nice spread. #2 seems dark with lights too bright. I'm sure that is tough to work out. All the lights seemed a little bright. #4 seemed either badly out of focus or camera shake. Still and all I liked the effort and would like to see more of the same subject.
Ride Safe.

What type of processing did you use on the sky in the 3rd picture?

I like the third one.

My friend almost bought an R1. He bought a used 2005 Ninja instead.

Is it a US thing, both indicators are on?

Nice pics, nice bike

I always have a smile when I see expensive armored jackets and jeans & trainers (pic #2)

Yes...but not all brands do it. The majority of Yamaha's and Honda's come with the front turn signals wired as running lights.

#3 and 5 have turned into my favorites out of the shoot. I'll probably work on the others when i have some more time on my hands.

The sky is just a simple orange gradient. Too much attention was given to the blown-out sky so that's why i did that.

Thanks for the replys!

Notice in all pictures the both lights headlights are not working only the one on the left side of the bike if you were sitting on it is working.

right they're on full bright in the last picture. I dunno I think its kind of neat that only one side comes on. I mean look how much attention it's gotten. And if I were a biker I'd sure want people to recognize me on the road!

Yeah my 2003 Kawasaki 636 did the same thing...

I liked the one headlight effect but everybody who didn't know that's how it's supposed to be would tell me I had a headlight out...
