    I got the luxury of shooting a RS125 Fila race replica and RS250 Gulf race replica, same owner (not me). I don't have any before pictures but before they were painted they looked a little rough, so to speak...like a race bike would look. John, FinishingTouch4u, did the paint and I did the photog'ing.

    The RS125 Fila pictures are here: http://www.tgrayphotography.com/Mot...-Fila-Race/19592289_N9CtHd#1534962188_ghwLLJn

    The RS250 Gulf pictures are here: http://www.tgrayphotography.com/Mot...-Gulf-Race/19593429_kbfjM8#1535059776_HXqQjNZ

    For now, here are some teasers. These were all shot with a Canon 7d with either the Canon 24mm F1.4 L, Canon 100mm Macro, Canon 70-200mm F2.8 IS, or the Sigma 8mm Fisheye. The "studio" shots were all with a 420ex flash (on-camera) and a fill light off to one of the sides. The outside pictures were shot with natural light, no fill. Enjoy!

    First, maybe only, suggestion would be to lose the model. She doesn’t add value to the pictures. Not that you asked for my suggestion.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" /><o:p></o:p>

    Yup...not much joy in emulating the Moto-Guzzi advertising style of the 70's. :puke1
