Reference Images

I was wondering if anyone had any reference images (top and side). i am wanting to make some 3d models in blender but i cant seem to find any top down pictures of any bikes so maybe you can send me some please? :)

There is own thread for these, search for it.
But as you noticed there's not much top view images from bikes, maybe a couple one and it depends of the bike. So that's what makes it harder, you need to have the perspective eye to get the shapes and sizes right. So it's not impossible without a complete blueprint, you just need to use different pictures you have and try to get it look real. Try to find good side picture and a lot of pics from other views.

Took about 5 sec to type the word reference on the search and there it was on the first page. I assumed that you'd have tried a bit more if you are a modeler.
But there you go:
