Layout will do that. If you haven't already set a keyframe for the camera at frame zero, then layout will try to set the scene so that everything will fit in the camera view. You can rescale it by adjusting the grid size.

Oh, that looks very nice. Only thing that I think would make it better would be to rotate the bike about 30 degrees so that the light isn't so straight on, that way you can see all of the wonderful details better (and show off that sweet chrome and paint )

Davie -

This has really come a long way from your early efforts. You've had problems en route, but a big kudos to you for sticking with it and pushing out some blinding renders here. Great work!
