Ducati Riders

[iamdaman]

Hi Grave, is the Akrapovic approve for use??

[ciel-liu]

Hey, Thanks alot!

Yes I've received 1-2 response (not sure is 1 or two cos not sure if it's the same person LOL)

I will be in contact with them shortly to discuss the shoot.

And yes Red is cool too just my theme is black this time LOL

If the shots are great and u guys dont mind, will post here to share too!

THanks everyone for ur warm response!!

 

 

The diavels, streetfighter S and 848 dark are the ones you want to look for. There are a few of them in here. Better to let them approach you personally. Not nice of me to reveal them. Most of us chose red 'cause we all are ferrari wannabes.

<!--url{2}-->[/img]</p><p> </p><p> we used to

dis is the last time we had it @ ................................saf yacht club@tanah merah.14 duke plus 1

<!--url{3}-->[/img]</p><p> u can meet up with the lot & foto them as well ,all ducati there

 

've u got any x'perience in taking fotos on bike?

me reckon the best angle is with the bike upright,so u need a race stand for dat?

as u noe all bikes 're inclined 15/20 degree with the side stand holding it up,very few come with centre stand,its juzz not cool!

race stand is operated separately to hold the bike up 90 degree.

i owns a set of race stand!

 

can u tell me more about your plan?

& how much am i being paid?

Hi there,

 

Thanks for your interest. Firstly, is it angle or my eyesight, but ur bike appears to be more greyish black than pure black? Could you please let me know about the color of your bike(s) so we could decide if it's suitable for the shoot?

 

Also which is your other bike in a row of bikes? Sorry... I just wanna check if you have at least one side without erm what is that, stickers? We're still looking at primarily pure black.

 

As for the part about compensation, my photographers and I usually work on a TF basis, which means trade for prints. To produce good images is our common goal and interest and therefore we do not charge each other(e.g. photography fees or modeling or makeup or wardrobe charges) but to pass them the pics at the end. If it's a shoot for commercial purpose, then for sure we will negotiate on the price etc. But this shoot is only our hobby and is for our personal keeping. I can understand the owner will need to ride the bike to the stipulated location, so I could compensate the owner $50 from my own pocket as appreciation. Hope you understand.

 

Thanks for your info on the race stand etc though! When is this group gathering going to happen again? I don't mind going down to select the bike or discuss with owners if it happens again.

 

cheers,

ciel

Hey everyone,

 

I've just registered in the forum because I am looking for a Ducati bike to do a photoshoot. Hopefully it's Black.

 

I have a day time job in Media line, Photography is my hobby and this motorbike shoot has been one of my dreams. I'd really appreciate if anyone's kind enough to lend the bike for us to create some wonderful images together. We will of course credit you and try to plan our timing etc to suit ur convenience!

 

Date: tentatively 2nd week of July, probably at night because our concept is surrounding dark themes + smoke +light.

 

For an idea of the concept you can refer to the pics below.

Anyone interested please PM me or email me at [email protected]

 

Model will be me LOL and photographer will be my friends who're doing wedding and fashion photography. I could show u some sample shots of their works first. We aim to do a shoot with good taste, avante garde+ fashion themed, we don't want too fleshy.

 

Hope to get some help or suggestion here! Really appreciate.

Hahah, girl ask for bike for photo shoot every 1 so fast.

 

I have a black ducati, should be quite rare bah. Why not make me an offer and I'll consider...LOL

They are most probably trying to chat up the owner regarding his apehangers.

 

They have just moved up into my Public Enemy Top Ten List.

 

Sometimes the thought of not stopping for them actually crossed my mind, if they want to fine me they have to catch me first...

[Skywheel]

Well, i will definitely give it a try. Catch Me If You Can!

[red rocket]

LOL. Apehangers on the 996 would be wicked. Then get leather pants, jacket and half cap to complete the look. Damien, one more thing. He wants a stereo as well. Was thinking drill two holes on the sides to mount the speakers?

 

If he install speakers on his bike I throw in a sub woofer

[Sn0w_MaN]

hahahaha... didnt know nowadays biker value honda bike more then duc... (just joking)... i miss going outing with u all!!!!

[yammy]

hahahaha... didnt know nowadays biker value honda bike more then duc... (just joking)... i miss going outing with u all!!!!

 

Now no more outing in Singapore coz apehangers (maximum $1000 or 3 month jail term) are illegal and too much attention is wasted to look out for copper to enjoy the ride. Only weekend rides to Malaysia (Truly Asia) is still on.

[yammy]

Haha, but the sub woofers must be the small cos it affects the lines of the bike and I dun want it to shift the focus of attention away from the apehangers.

[yammy]

996SPS $20K

SF1098 $28K

 

Viewing at secret undisclosed location...to view bike pls pm me for my secret HP no, call HP no and hang up on 2nd ring (secret handshake) then redial no. and only then I will answer (Pls make sure 2nd call is 3.142seconds after you hang up the 1st call, otherwise repeat the process).

 

Sorry for the inconvenient security procedures in place, cos a lapse in security can result in a maximum fine of $1000 or a 3 month jail term.

[ohayo]

Sat to Malaysia.

 

Wanna go eat lobster??????????????????????
