Couple pictures from possibly the last nice ride of the season. Its ~39F tonight down main street.

I'm in Macomb County. This picture was taken at Stoney Creek Metro Park.

Beautiful day in MI for a ride...

As 0150r said, its the effect of fill flash and a slow shutter speed. You end up with ghosting in areas of movement.

Just a 3/4" T-fitting with a cap on the top. You drill a hole in the top to fit a 1/4-20 bolt as long as you need (mine was 2.5", I think this works out well because its not too long to make it unstable but its long enough to fit easily. Then just a couple nuts to lock the bolt and camera in...

Sigma 85/1.4 I'd like to replace my 7D with a 5D (II or III, probably 3) before new years for a trip to NYC. The 85mm lens combined with a FF camera should make a mighty combo. I spend too much money on motorcycles to be able to afford the 85/1.2. Although everything I have read has been...

Made up a cheap camera bracket that mounts to the handlebar. In general a small handycam will be used on it. But, to test the design, I mounted up one of the SLRs just for fun. Took the bike for a nice ride around the lower part of the thumb of Michigan and the mount appeared to perform...

The shallow DoF is usually a pretty good give away to nice kit vs nice editing. I loved my 50/1.4, until I got my 85/1.4. My 50 rarely sees use at this point. Like the BT mod

I like your mods. Off topic, but what camera/lens combo are you using? Your pictures come out quite nice.

I recently did my first tire change on my 6R. I ended up going with the Raven 009, and went to a 170 rear. At the same time as the tire change I started getting a little more aggresive with body positioning, moving more towards the tank, as well as hanging off a little more and attempting to...

The Nighthawk S was available from '84-'86 and featured a bikini fairing on the front, as well as a 16" front wheel, to reflect the race bikes of the day. The styling, to me, is iconic on the Honda. Also, the sounds it makes far and away exceed those of the FZ. Such a full, throaty, exhaust...

Got both bikes out for a picture. 2011 Copper/Black 6R and the '84 CB700SC.

I just got back from a trip up to Huntsville with my gf on my 6R. I spent all summer ranting and raving about how beautiful the scenery is and how nice the roads are. We got there last wednesday and it rained, as you know, until we went home sunday. We got absolutely dumped on just south of...

Thats too bad to hear. I chose to order from Krypton Bulbs based on all the nice reviews that I read. And, it offered the slightly longer wire length. Because of the delays I ended up ordering from DDM while at the same time contacting Krypton to cancel my order. I have since installed...

Hello All, I am having difficulties with a product I got. I ordered an HID kit from Krypton Bulbs. After placing the order, it took longer than I would have expected to recieve the item. In the mean time, I made some attempts to cancel my order, but was unsuccessful. Could anyone please...
