Just my opinion but you need a little bit more contrast in the picture and a little less color saturation. Its borderline blown-out and the green in the background is distracting since its over saturated. Play with the black level some for some more contrast seperation. Also, using a gaussian blur is a good way to cover up noise. I like the composition though.

I think 'Busas are ugly, really. Only reason they get any attention is because they are fast, but how people can say they are cool looking or nice is beyond me. It looks like a damn fat slug. Then again, the design seems purposeful, its aerodynamics are better than most bikes.

At first glance I thought the green saturation helped, the contrast between the bush and the fender but then it does kind of hide the main point of the pic, all of those bikes.

Say what you will about the 'slugs', but unlike most people that put fat tires and stretch em to the ends of the earth, I left mine stock length but RAISED it a inch and have full ohlins, kinda helps I work at a bike dealership..

That actually looks much better. I thinkmthe front fairing is just too big for my taste. Like I said, they are very aerodynamic for a motorcycle, so the shape serves a purpose, they just look fat from the front.

LOL really that is funny. They probably have the biggest cult following of any sport bike. They are just sexy long and sleek.

Ok, I am going to get myself in trouble a little here, but I find the cult following to be largely ghetto. Let's not forget most cults are delusional crazies that make decisions based on what others are doing and don't think on their own.

Yes, I am a dick. I wear the name badge proudly can you tell I am biased against the busa and many of its riders?
