I've been retouching pictures for the past couple of days. Our photographer did a great job, but Metal is a giant mirror with all that chrome. There were a lot of reflections that had to be removed or disguised. Here are just a few of the final pics.
We had to put Metal of Honor in the Condor Pit Stop Chok for the pics on the grass. Dana just didn't trust the kick stand on the soft, just watered lawn by the lake. This chok is awesome. Only weighs 22 pounds and Metal stays very stable, even when bumped, on ANY surface. Sometimes you have to make trade offs, especially when you're shooting something that would be so hard to repair if damaged. As a designer, I really appreciate clever, elegant and simple to use design. We were so impressed when we saw them at the Laughlin bike rally earlier this year. Dana bought one for Metal like two weeks later. You just can't beat good old American-made ingenuity!
I love the angle Nate got on the pipes.
Finally, some nice pics of Dana with the bike. I voted for the smile one, but he likes this "Mr. Serious Harley Rider" one. I'll win this debate yet, I swear!
