8 would be good if the handlebars were a little more in focus... Good series

The photos are good, nice lighting, in focus etc. The stunts are stupid, but there's always one.

Woo hoo, more organ donors, sorry couldn’t pass it up. Ok I’ll leave it at that. I think the shots came out nice, looks like you have good focus and nice motion. The vig in #2 is a little too much for me, would like to see it toned down just a tad. Really like the last one, thanks for sharing.

justifying bad behavior by pointing out worse behavior... hmmmmm....

Some of car forums are developing a zero tolerance when it comes to street racing...

not a fan of stunting but also not a hater. Speeding, changing lanes without looking, talking on the cell phone while driving, having a few drinks and driving home, Im sure those who have commented on the stunting have never done any that, ever... I like how the limo driver is checking the guy out in 7 :)

number 3 did a good job of capturing the speed and keeping the bike sharp. Just that damn traffic in the bg kills it.

...makes me wish I had my bike out of the shop :( been in for a month now

I agree, I have seen guys on goldwings drinking coffee and talking on cell phones.

People bash riders, I am one by the way. I do not do stunts, hard to do on a Harley, but I see enough stupid people in cars doing things.

Don't throw rocks if your in a glass house.:rolleyes: No one here is perfect.

Cool shots, for both of you moving. ;)


Nikon D300 and other non canon stuff, I just like this place. MOOOHAHAHAHA :p

Nice photographs, stupid riders... I hate riders like this because it reflects on the rest of us that ride.

I've been an avid motorcyclist for 35 years.... did I do stupid thing when I was young? Yep. Am I proud of it? Nope. Do i do them now? Nope. Zero tolerance with alcohol and driving. I try not to talk on the cell when driving. When I do I use the hands free. Also obey the speed limit.

My point is you can't say what these guys are doing is ok because others are doing even stupider things... what they are doing is very illegal.. this is not a minor infraction like forgetting to turn a your turn signal on.. I would bet it's wreckless driver plus some....

That being said, you have to be careful as an owner of a forum. I know a few car forums that have been targeted for allowing street racing stuff. If you allow people to post pictures/videos of illegal activity, especially something that's been in the public view like street racing that you are viewed as condoning it.... which then make you a target...
