Hey, thats really good!

What program are you using?

Everything looks like its in proportion. the only thing i would change is the petrol tank, and the alloy body part (the wide peice that starts at the handle bars and goes down to the rear wheel) looks too rounded.

It looks really good.

I'm not looking to join any amateur teams, nor do I take requests.

Looks cool, the design is good and well thought out - the only thing that concerns me is how you've done the mechanics. I think you should try and truncate the polygons (if that's the correct term) - it looks like you have pieces intersecting other pieces, where usually it would all be 1 mesh. When you intersect polygons like you have, it can play havoc with things like collision and texturing is more difficult. There's times when intersecting is a good idea, when it saves lots of polygons, but I think you should try and make a non-intersecting version.

I know I rambled there and it is a minor point, the bike looks great and would fit in anywhere, looking forward to seeing it textured.

Thanks for the interest Van B..

I definately have some argumrnts for intersecting polygons and texturing because when u intersect, u efficiently hide the seams...

as far as collision is concerned, i thought that if all of the bike acted as an object then a simple bounding box would do the job with no problems at all,,, or would it be problematic?

plz enlighten me on this one....
