Thank you Kris and Allan

Welcome back John ! Is this a CB750F ? Looks good i like the sit up & beg position better than the racing position with clip on handlebars.My youth was mis-spent with bikes until a lengthy stay in traction intervened !
-
Nice one John, great to see your work here.
-
Impressive modeling, John!
-
Thank you Mike and Daniel.
Simon the plan I had was for a CB1300 but every image I looked at differed in some way so it's close-ish
Motorbikes are a sore point at the moment because I wont let the youngest son buy one!...he's bloody mental.

I think I'd want a thicker gel seat if I was touring on it and it looks like you missed the tyre valves
but other than that it's another amazing render from a master -
Very impressive work, John
My only suggestion (you know I've gotta find something
) would be to dirty up the tire treads a bit where they were rolling in the dirt.I'll go away now.

JohnMy parents never let me have a motorbike, it became engrained in my brain to never ride a motorbike. And funnily enough I've never had a motorbike accident....because I never got on one! I understand you restricting it from your youngest. I'd still love to ride a big fat hog across america though, not sure why, just a badass chopper and the road ahead. why not?
awesome modelling!! -
Thank you.
Trevor I'd be ok with this well padded arse
Steve, I knew you would say that....fixed
Oli, it's would be a dream come true.....this is the nearest thing

That's a stretch of 66 that I'm not familiar with.
My main experience on bikes was shortly after I retired in '89. Spent about five months just roaming around, Ohio, Tennessee, Kentucky, Arkansas, Mississippi, Georgia, Florida, etc. Visited all the areas where I had been stationed. Some of the bases had closed and were now part of the towns, that was kinda weird. It was a lot of fun but my butt got real tired. Too old for that stuff now

sketchucation road trip!!
let's just see where we end up!dirt looks much more realistic now. the crazy frog also adds a certain "je ne sais quoi"
-
66 drives right through Springfield, Missouri... Make sure to stop by and say hi.

I had one of these when i was 16, the freedom and pain it gave me were immeasurable !

Oh, the pain. When I was 12, we moved to a farm and I had a Honda MR 50. After about a year it developed the habit of breaking down when I was miles from home, and I'd have to pushed it home. It got to the point I said to hell with it, I'll walk. And then there was the time I slid under a barbed wire fence...

My SS50 was the last of the unrestricted mopeds but being a tractor like 4 stroke it was always overshadowed by the FS1E yamaha 2 stroke equivalent.It even had pedals so you could pedal it home (crippling) These things were the prize imagine 60mph (55 really) from a 50cc lol ! I drove my ss into a trench in the road while racing some other loser. The frame snapped.........
-
Thanks everyone.

Oh to be young and daft again

I had one of these when I was about 19 or 20... Minus the cow hide seat of course. Talk about teaching you to respect life.
