As Bill41 stated ... Most bikers are not "bad mamajammers" (Geico Gecko)
Most bikers are just fine with you taking their and their bikes pic. But you do need to look for and avoid any bikers wearing 1%er patches, as those are the real "bad mamajammers" think Hells Angels, Outlaws and Warlocks who under normal circumstances absolutely do not want you talking a pic of his "most wanted" mug or of his possibly stolen ride.
What to look for and avoid!!!

will you be riding? I shoot from the back of the bike all the time.
set the speed fast so you can stop the action
or set it slow so you can actually catch the movement.
I dont know anything about 1%ers...Wow..
Look for some of the great details on the bikes and get in close...

I had a 37 Harley flathead. Rode it many days to college in early fifties. Anyone go back that far? My best friend had an Indian. Quite a contrast.

Hi Bill here, I work for Full Throttle Magazine A motorcycle enthusiast magazine. Bikers of today love their bikes or themselves in photos especially to showoff their equipment. I suggest a way of beating the GLARE from all the chrome. Some filters might help too. Oh by the way majority of the bikers of today are white collar workers. The bad land gangs of the 60's & 70's are almost a thing of the past.

Hey Sporty...need any writers for Full Throttle...I did some stuff for BMWON Mag, but the editor I enjoyed working with just left and took a job at REVZILLA...

I do many pictures on and off the bike in my travels. I find a good point and shoot less noticeable and leave it in the Auto mode with about -1 on exposure. Lots of shots from the waist without it looking like you're taking any pictures brings surprising good pics with a lot of deletes also. ;-) My cam of choice has been a Canon G12 which I sold a Canon Rebel XS for due to it being too big , too noticeable, and too hard to get out of the tankbag and take a picture on the roll with one hand.

I saw the perfect anti-glare bike in NYC. Every square inch was painted flat black. That must have been fun to ride in the city at night - or on a twisty country road.I suggest a way of beating the GLARE from all the chrome.

Maybe the ones who read "Full Throttle" magazine are. But those that read real hard core biker magazines like "Easy Rider" are not a thing of the past. :mrgreen:
