Hate the bike.

Love the pics.

As a suggestion remove the plate entirely next time, helps a lot on bike since the plate never sits right on one.

Other than minor nitpicking I’ve got nothing, shots look great.

Just as an idea for the next dramatic shot, try using an rear stand for the bike for either

A) Stationary scenic shot  
B) Unusual shot that will require editing.

The problem with the bikes is that they can only be photographed well from only one side since they lean to the other side and kickstand kills it. If you use a rear stand (most riders own one so use theirs), you can get a rare shot of a bike being upright, but it would require some editing. Seeing as you’ve edited a photo or two before :lol, it shouldn’t be a problem.

Examples.

And manufacturers typically photoshop the stand out on their website when they demonstrate a new model. It helps having the whole white wall setup however in this.

Uncanny.

And I’m personally not a fan of 97% of Yamaha bikes myself and owned a Kawi, but I can’t get over the new Zx10 ever since the NYC moto show.

On that same note, neither the CBR1000, but the new R1 is one of the few new liters that’s actually growing on me.
