You don't need photoshop to see what it looks like. '14 Tank/shrouds, seat and subframe/airbox/rear fender fit on the 250. Airbox needs some modding to line up. (not my bike)

I forgot about that pic , that bike is pretty epic. I was honestly just bored wasnt thinking I was re inventing the wheel or anything. If they make a new one Ill most likely buy one.

Hands down the sickest Kawasaki 250 I have ever seen.

make the 250/450 look like the 85/100 and you'd have a great direction for Kawasaki. they have got to get back in the design game. new frame, new plastics, new styling, and do it with the same laser focus KTM uses.

Pick one accent color and go with it (blue or green... Considering it's a chevy bike id go with green, maybe some black... No blue parts).

Put a factory pipe on it.

Then it would be the sickest KX I've seen... IMO

Those are decent I suppose. A year or two ago I did some photoshop work and I convinced a lot of people here that Dungey was hired by Reed to ride on Two Two Motorsports. This is the picture that caused all sorts of panic and commotion within the industry for a few hours..........

With work like that, Pixar will be knocking your door down trying to hire you.

I know that's not a real pic, cuz he's not wearing a helmet.

Gotcha!!

That my friends is what 6 years and $120,000 at an art institute gets you. I did land a pretty sweet gig though as head illustrator at the blind children's center in downtown LA.

I actually think that the steel frame model looks better than the aluminum frame for the 2 stroke.

What kind of modding do you think is required to the air box? Much effort involved or is it a walk in the park

Yeah that design doesn't do a thing for me other than make me not want to (hypothetically) buy it.

This one looks so much cleaner.

Yeah, too bad it did not work out because they could not arrange a helmet deal. The Dunge was feeling unsafe and the mechanics were upset because he could not stop yelling to make some adjustments due to the lack of hear plugs ...

If I remember correctly from when I read the build thread, that bike is pretty well rigged. I had major interest in doing the same until I saw how it was done.
