Yeah youre right the only reason i stopped was my feet were aching , It was my 3 lap of the track. And they were worth it  a bit harsh callin them floozies . I checked out the prototype BMW 450 moto x .very trick and as usual a little bit different  the countershaft sprocket is on the swingarm pivot , fuel tank under the seat  looks good cant wait to see how it goes .

I just got some pics and feedback from a mate who was over at the 08 testing, parently this thing is cooking , looks like casey may depending on other makers mods in the break, be on a sure thing again.

im not sure if should be putting the pics up due to copyright and i think he is still negotiating on the selling of them, for his living to the mags , but if i put one up can someone put the Copyright thing on it or water mark it please,  other wise if it turns up somewhere else im screwed, i might pull it down after this weekend, and please dont forward onto your mates other wise he'll cut my nuts off for sure and any other pics i get will seize

check out the feathering on the rubber lines on the front lean edges......eeeek thats pushed.

Yeah, most people don't understand copyright or why it exists.
Simply, this bloke has probably travelled to the track and spent anything up to a couple days trying to get a decent image to get paid and feed his family. Then when the image gets stolen, especially a good one like this is, it's very hard to then sell. Magazines like exclusivity and if the image has already been seen halfway around the world, it's not worth very much any more.
I guess it's kinda like doing the best week's work you've ever done, then getting told at the end that you're not getting paid.
So copyright law helps to protect him and allow him to make a living.

Thanks Tony, good you can explain that to good ol' Dr phil, when its your business and lively hood on the line you would give a fart, flying or not.

All of that aside, it is a great shot. It would be so hard to come up with something that's a little different these days, but this guy has done it.
Who took it? I'd like to see more of what he does.
pm me if you'd rather not go public.
I always wanted to be a motorsport photographer. That's actually how I got started. But it seems just so hard to make a good living out of it. A lot easier to make money out of weddings and the wine industry, I reckon............  ;D

Damir, you should now him he was riding Road for a few years, gave me some awesome pics Back in the day here is one of my old bucket ( see below).Think hes branded as FV.com.au or maybe no au as in focal vision, i think he did the wedding, parties ,anything circuit and may still do it, but i think he likes the risk of spending $4k to travel to the circuit on the off chance he can make a shot pay.

i think your right i might pull the pic until he has hawed it out with his others, id hate to cost him his next mortgage payment.

Ill put some girls up in the meantime.
