Nice shot with good highlights in the body. Looking at the rotor though, maybe the high end of the histogram could be a bit brighter?

It's all the way to just before clipping in Lightroom. Maybe there is just plenty of pad material on them? They aren't iron, they are stainless steel so maybe that makes a difference? I kept the contrast low, that may have also dulled the brights and darks. The highlights in the red paint are also due to playing with Luminance.

Light was nice but most of the twisties were done in the dark so slow going.... Impending storms made it very humid, soaked helmet.... Dont be jelly!

I'm not familiar with the settings in LR, but with the histogram in FFox, there's a lot of room at the right. It doesn't look bad to me, but personally I'd tweak it a little bit.

Much slower, but dare I say more fun to ride in a relaxing sort of way?.... Sometimes the Duc just wears me out.

Do you ride?
