    Good for you Jonathan, a 500mm as well. That is going to open so many creative opportunities for you, can't wait to see some shots from that combo.

    By the way, Bob, my GL1800 Wing will smoke an Electra Glide. If you have one, I'm sure I'd be looking at you in my side mirrors, with you traveling at a -120 miles per hour....
    , Yeah, Your right, But while white knuckling your beast @120mph, I am sitting back enjoying the sites @ 75mph (legally) and look cool doing it.




    Really, I don't own a bike, I just use it as an example when this subject comes up. And......Those gold wings are gorgeous.

    Can't get it to go to 140 . I topped it out at 128, though. That's plenty fast.

    I never rode a motor bike, but my Dad did 160 MPH on a Kawaski Ninja! He said it could go faster but it started to shake and thought that was fast enough! 80 MPH in a car is fast enough for me.

    Fast Glass the second,
    John.

    Yeah, and that grandbaby is going to have the best photo gear on the block when he (or she) inherits it after his wife kills him!

    That's exactly how I got my grandfather's Rolleiflex.
