Probably (OK definitely) could have used a second light on the bike.

Not bad, but agree on the 2nd light.

Im not sure I agree about the need for a second light.

What was the primary subject and intent of the image. I see a lady sitting on a motorcycle at sunset. The lighting is used to highlight the lady, who is the primary subject of the image.

If the primary subject was the motorcycle, and the lady is just "window dressing" then you should have used more lights (and possibly taken some of her clothes from her).

To me, the image says here is my wife/girlfriend and my bike. The lighting shows which of the two is most important to the person behind the shutter. I like the image as is, and at least for me, additional lighting would just reduce the image to another soulless "girl on bike" shot.

Agree with others, needs more light, but my initial thought was, why is she (body) facing the other way...?

I did take several shots facing the “right” direction. My intent here was something a little more casual per se. (I don’t know if casual is the right description but I’m going with that)

Personally I like both ideas. The 1 you posted is fine with me. Yes a tad more light on the HD tank to bring some more color into the frame and accent the sunset and her beautiful blonde hair!

Experiment....

Plenty of latitude to pull it up a kiss or two in post if you want just a bit more exposure on the bike ... land it where you like it.
