“Here's some new shots of Bree, the naughty schoolgirl. If you can get pastdrooling over Bree, there's one of our bikes with a cool devil chick in redpainted on the tank,” Said John Covington, president of Steed Muscle Bikes.
She's straddling one of John's Steed 300-VM AppaloosaChoppers. Bree has straddled plenty of Motorsports modeling and was a blastto shoot according to the master, John. As you can tell, she's got tons of attitude. I could use a taste of that attitude right here.
“We're compilingthese shots and letting the Bikernet.com surfers endure a preview of our 2006 18-month “Steeds N' Fillies” Calendar destined for releasenext summer,” John said gazing at the shots.
All new 2005 Steed Muscle Bikes have Steed Trademark single shock Monoglide Suspension ontheir proprietary 300 Avon tire chassis.
“We're running an All-American Drivetrain,” John destribed, “featuring an S&S 111-inch engines, Baker RSD 6-Speed transmissions, heads-updigital instruments that include a tach, speedo, odometer, trip-meter andall indicator lights hidden in the mirrors.” This bike has special-orderedred powder coated rims on 60-spoke wheels, among other Steedly detailsincluding the graphic paint by Steeds artist Rick Wescott. The MSRP forthis bike is only $31,995.
“As always, our bikes are built to ride,” John said, “with a 2-year factory warranty (not a 3rd party insurance company).
“I think this is the bike Bandit rode when we rolled up to your compound during theLA Calendar Bike show,” John reminded me. “I originally shot this bike with London, and Bikernethas a few shots of her. But I re-shot it with Bree and a theme,rather than just a stripper on a bike. “
“I just kind of stumbled into shooting the chicks,” John said. Bikes and parts are easyto shoot. Making a woman look hot is really tough. I see so many crappyshots with chicks in them, that I really strive to get the girls to lookgood.” He's doing one helluva job and he's just been at it for aboutsix months. He finds better ways to shoot them with each session.
“The hot chicks just keep coming by word of mouth,” John said. Bree's in Jessie's new calendar and was also on a few PMposters. “She's told several of her other modeling friends here in AZ. whowant to be in the Steed calendar, so the talent is improving for Bikernet shoots too. ”
“TheAsian girl, Lorna, is one of Bree, 'the naughty schoolgirl's' friends,” John said. “Together the organized a pro modeling Bikini Team, and all want extra shots for theirportfolios and web-sites. I've got several more of them lined up as soon asI finish some new Muscle bikes.” The talent pool is amazing in AZ.
“So now I gotta go grind on some tanks and fenders waiting for me toweld,” John said. “Which isn't nearly as much fun as the photography…I guess that'swhy they call it metalWORK.”
Think I could cop a job helping with the photos? Not likely.
