I took a pic of a coworkers motorcycle and fixed it up as a poster...
Would like some constructive critique.
Anything to make it look better or is it good to go the way it is?
Appreciate all comments...

Thanks guys,
I'm looking forward to showing this to my friend monday morning...
I plan on having it printed as a 20in x 30in poster, can't wait...
Appreciate the replies...

"I was wondering how you did the effect on the text "own the track" in PS."
Make a couple of layers of the same text.
Filter/Blur/Radial
On the bottom layer perform radial blur zoom at 100%.
Just experiment with it til you get what you like.
have fun!
thanks,
Jeff
Jeff very nicely done. I like the clean sharp lines. I have a few comments that you might want to consider. These are not things I think should be done, just things I think should be played with *just* to see if they look better or not. They might not, but I play with my posters too just in case I stumble upon an effect I like even better then what I originally had in mind. So here goes:
1) Try rotating some or all of your background text so that they appear at an angle.
2) Try copying the text "own the track" a few times placed randomly near the original. You can fade, scale to different size, and/or lighten the copies so that the original still stands out.
3) The blank space in the lower right corner might look better with a logo or graphic from the bike. For ex., maybe if you blew up the area with the red "R" with "GSX" under it and placed it there in the corner, or perhaps the center or the rear wheel with the gears and stuff would look cool.
4) Consider putting in some sort of border. Maybe brush the edges with a tech brush.
Again, these are just suggestions. They may or may not help it look better, but it doesn't hurt to play around.

Ethan, great tips, I'm so busy, but I'm definitely going to try that stuff...
Haven't had time to mess with any reflections lately...
Appreciate the reply...

Wow you adjusted the colors well, contrast also, it ended up like it was done in a studio and it looks like a very new shiny motorcycle. R U Sure that is the foto you used ? Is it scanned foto or digital ?
Where did you shoot the motorcycle jkinkead ?
