Stunning Pics Johann. Three beautiful Twins, even the Guzzi doesn't look too out of place. (even if it is outclassed )

Moto Guzzi have an exhaust note all of their own just like Triumphs , different but both are memorable silence breakers.

The Guzzi is really badass and hard to beat the music of thoose pipes!


The red Bonneville is a one of a kind for sure. A real "Hotrod Bonnie" in mint condition

Outstanding pics! It seems you even brushed out tire tracks here and there in some of those pictures... such attention to detail. Did you use special lighting of any kind?

Wow! I had NO idea I could get 3-D on my computer screen, Johann!!!

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Thanks for the nice comments!

Keith,

Yes I actually had the owners of the bikes to "tidy" up a bit on the concrete before the shoot´s

All pictures are natural light, huge windows making it a perfect location for photos

The place is an old steel mill in a small village where I grew up and I have been there a lot as a kid when it was still in use.

This is the first time photographing bikes inside the building, I have taken a lot of pic´s outside before on my own bikes but had this idea of getting in there for some time now and finally got the bikes together and the keys to get in there.

Great photos! Thanks for posting these. My office is located inside an old Moses Cone mill that's been remodeled inside. I'd love to get a bike inside some of the unfinished areas of the mill for a photo shoot.

The red T-100 just needs a whitewall rear to be totally freakin' awesome.

Those are some really great shots. Red is my color and that T100 looks outstanding in that old setting. The other bikes look really good as well but the Red one takes the cake! I wish my photos could turn out like that. What kind of camera did you use? an SLR?

Thanks all

Oldroadie,

Whitewall rear or not that´s the question, I know that Thorbjorn who owns the bike has done a lot of thinking back and forth about that....

Front only actually gives it a even more "Hotrod" look IMHO


Ronald,

The camera is a Hasselblad H3 DII
