I did all this by myself and it was not easy. Had to change my cloths twice because it was so hot outside even at night. Me on my motorcycle self portrait. Its magic.

Nicely executed. I still don't know exactly how you did this. My best guess is a studio shot due to the quality of light and possible softbox reflections. Another believable image, well done. I especially like how the image is almost exclusively Yellow and Black which gives it a very clean look.

so, the wondering begins:
- shift lens, or clone out the reflections from the helmet?
- camera on a tripod welded or gaffa-taped to the rear pillion just out of shot, or merged in blurry floor from another shot? (or well fancy painted floor?) (or camera on a crane following behind, on remote control as you said it was own work?)
-if i squint closely enough, can i see a reflection of a speedlight (or mobile phone?) in the centre of the helmet, or is that a badge on the helmet itself?
.
but then, who cares, when the final result is as sweet-looking as that?

I've figured it out, he's used a toy helicopter controlled by a proximity sensor attached to the bike. The lens image stabilization was definitely switched on. [:P]
Man that's a steep hill!
