Default Some night shots of my 250r...

... with new graphics...

This is my first time doing night photography. It's pretty much almost exactly the same as daytime photography

Bike looks nice. Did you use a tripod?

Do you have any mods planned for it?

I did use a tripod and a 10 seconds timer just to make sure I didn't move anything. As far as mods, since it's my commuter I'm not going to do much to it.

cool bike. the headlight either looks nasty dirty or you have some gay tint over it.

I would keep the bike as is, like you have planned. pipes on a 250 is a waste imo, the pipe alone would be nearly 20% of the msrp of the bike.

is it just showing the reflected light cos of the slow shutter speed? it might be a bit dusty and thats showing up but night photography can do weird things like that it seems, esp. with digital cameras?

The head light has a yellow tint on it, cuz I do quite a it of night riding so I put it on to make it more standout in a sea of white lights. The lighting at night makes it look a bit weird, but below is how it looks during day time. Yeah, I need to spend some time adjusting the camera. :D I only have a slipon on my 600RR track bike, and it's mostly for sound when I video tape myself so I doubt that I'm going to do anything to this bike. The deficit of all my bikes is the nut between the handle bars

I get like 35mpg on my R6. All I have is a K&N air filter, PowerCommander, and a full exhaust. But then again I don't really put around town. Seriously tho, I wanna see if I can just use it to commute and junk and see if I can get like 50mpg.

I was close to getting this bike twice.

Went to 2 different dealerships and put a deposit...ended up canceling the order.

Only reason is that it's just too small..looks great and all...but I just can't fit the bike!

Sweet bike regardless.

I ended up buying a full exhaust and dynojet kit for mine and in the end, for the money I didn't think it was worth it. The best mods IMO are aftermarket pegs and a double bubble wind screen...I ghetto chopped the fender as well with a dremel and it looked like it should of came from the factory that way. Sweet bike none the less
