Very nice shots mate - and by the look of the riders right wrist he was not hanging about

The high-level can looks the dogs too.

Thanks for posting them.

Graham, tell Joe to get rid of those rear footpegs! He already has the cover on the rear seat cover, the pegs are just in the way now!

Nice photos BTW.

As far as I know, he still has the rear seats and sometimes him and my sister go out on the bike for the day, I'll let him know though.....if he's not reading this

Thanks,

Graham

On the still photos.. , bike looks great, but for better photos (still) decrease the aperture upto f8 with a longer shutter speed ( between 1/20th and 1/4,until the light is good ) ,spot focus on the bike and it will 'pop' out from the background !,will look a lot better !,although they are good just now to...

Does this make me a nerd ?

cracking bike.

I'll have a play with what you suggest next time, see how I get on, thanks

Will that fast shutter speed not let enough light in?.............but then you've got the low aperture, ok kind of makes sense. That was my first time using the manual settings so I was a bit aprehensive of the results

S2000 and 'Blades are great. Anything a 5'2" urchin in a baseball cap and breathes exclusively through his mouth drives is right orf my like list...

so it's not good for a 5'9", blonde, Coutts banking officer to drive one? (I still think she got the wrong car though)

Well, I think Type Rs are okay, yes a Chav type could drive one but as always it depends entirely on 'how good' the driver is.......and I'm sure she is great!
