Hi All,

I am photographer and bike owner (just sold my ducati 748 yesterday :( but still have my 2003 r6 back in aus, still makes me a biker :headbang: even though I got no wheels in da country now right? )

Anyways I am doing a fashion shoot this friday for remix magazine based around a rockabilly theme. Basically what I am wanting to do is have a bike (or bikes) that look the part in a couple of shots (naked bike with a vintage or retro look). No one will be riding the bike it would be just a prop.

Unfortunately its editorial so there is no budget to rent anything but I am willing to throw in a six pack for your time and give you a credit in the magazine for your help.

Could be a nice opportunity to get you pride and joy in print.

Would only need the bike or bikes for about an hour or so around mid afternoon (on location in downtown auckland). So if your free this friday and want to take part in the photo shoot I would be very grateful.

Just reply here or send me a private message.

i know a bunch of guys with pre-'75 choppers..only catch is, you'd have to come to new plymouth for it!

for instance (unfortunately this one is away in storage as the owner moved overseas):-

(also..it's not a trike, we just had some 12" rims sitting around and wanted to see how badass it looked)
