We sure enjoyed our time at the Long Beach International Motorcycle Show, and I had a great time photographing the custom bikes. The concept behind the motorcycle shows is that the manufacturers get to display their bikes, vendors get to display (and sell) their products, and in the midst of all, the aisles are peppered with custom bikes. The audience gets to vote and someone gets a trophy, I guess. I just like seeing the latest trends and the craftsmanship that goes into these customs. Take a look.
I think one of the great aspects of these shows is that the custom motorcycles suggest ideas for future customs. They’re fun to see and fun to photograph. All of these photos were shot with available light (no flash) with my Nikon D810 at ISO 1000 and the 24-120 Nikon lens. There were many more customs than just the ones I’m showing here, but this blog is getting long enough already, and I have other things I want to share with you from the Long Beach International Motorcycle Show. Stay tuned!
