With JGR moving to Suzuki, and Cycra being a long time sponsor of JGR...does this mean we will finally see Cycra RM(Z) plastics?

yes, I mentioned it already in the other jgr thread. cycra is developing a kit for the '17 suzuki at the moment. the kit will obviously fit other years as well as the rmz hasn't changed all that much.

Everyone kept saying that Cycra would wait until the 2018 comes out to do Suzuki stuff, but if you think about it there is a HUGE market out there for RMZ450 plastic. That bike goes back a while and they could release one powerflow kit that would cover many years. I wouldn't be surprised if we see them just come out with current gen Zook stuff.

Also, wonder if the JGR 250 bikes will have Cycra on them? You have to think they will...

Everyone is pumped about a number plate, but I see the gold rims and a hotdog suit that looks like he just took a dump in his pants.

I love the JGR Suzuki look, the ONLY thing that bothers me (only a little) is the amount of sponsor stickers, but I guess the team needs the sponsors so got to have them

Maybe ML can chime in here, but do I see RG3 stickers on those forks? IS RG3 going back to servicing the Factory Suzuki suspension program again?

Also, I'm still kinda MEH on the JGR graphics...

Yes those are RG3 stickers. Rob and Co. have handled their stuff for a long time.

Not sure if this has been asked but how come Cycra hasn't made Suzuki plastics in the past? From what ive read, that doesnt really answer the question is, maybe it's because the zooks haven't changed much for the past almost decade but so what? It'd still be nice to have an option from them. Even if you were just buying replacement stock molds. IMO, a plastic company should offer plastics for the main 5, now 6 manufacuters, at least for big bikes.

Are there any other bikes that Cycra doesnt offer plastics for? What about other plastic companies? UFO, Acerbis, etc. Do they have an option for every mx bike?

Also I know you don't see as many older 4 strokes out there but why not a pre 2010 restyle kit for Suzuki's. I know a few people that would kill for those.

While I'm on the subject and maybe its worthy of a new thread but I'm surprised more plastic companies don't make custom shape plastics. Instead of a restyle kit or replica molds, why not make your own shape and style? As long as it doesnt look like the Blue Buffalo bike of course. That's like taking a girl with double ds and dropping them down to an a. It just doesnt look as good. ( . Y . )

Looking forward to hearing some replies!

I agree. Side plates are too crazy.

Top of seat is yellow, but it ties into a fender that has blue on top.

I hope their A1 bikes look a little different.

Suspension is done by Showa on the lites so far. RG3 may be doing something with linkages but not suspension at this time.

I wish they would have stayed with FX Graphics imo everything Dirt Candy has come up with looks like complete crap. They need to invest in some new designers...
