ah freakray, nice, really proportionate and compliment each other the bike and the car.
1st pic is sharp, great shot cant say for the second though.
What was the other hand doing while you were taking the 2nd shot eh?

I'll definitely go into modeling bikes but after I've done my pile of cars
They really compliment each other.

LOL, the second shot is a lot older than the first, it was when I just got my digicam and not very well practiced.
It doesn't help that I have mild carpel-tunnel syndrome so if I try to hold anything still more than a few seconds, I develop an awful tremble....
I have since started using a pedestal for taking my photos, as you can see from all my recent photos which are a lot better.

Just to share with all of you regarding the race R1, i did this about 5 years ago, my race R1 ver 1...right now working on my ver 3. stay tuned...

Basically, any street bike will be suitable for a start because it contains less parts compared to pure racing bikes.

I usually build cars but I also have some of Tamiya's excellent bikes on the shelf. Why not try out their latest release, the new 1/12 Repsol Honda RC211V, looks smashing and have an interesting engine layout...a 900cc V5 configuration. At the moment I have a Ducati 916 and a Honda VFR 750 in slow progress. It seems that I like many others is having to many projects at the same time. But, hey! Get a Bike, they're a blast to build and a nice sidestep from building just cars.
