I don't think I ever remember factory Suzuki going with the retro look on the theme weekends. Anyone else?

Retro weekend? I thought Yamaha was going old school to celebrate their own history. Didn't think this was a full-scale retro weekend like they do at the SX.

I bet it's not intended to be retro. One of the higher-ups in and around that team has told me that they want to switch colors and themes from time to time. This is likely an extension on that idea. I bet the MEC bikes will feature an altogether different design.

Those bikes are hideous. Last year they had one of the coolest looks in the pits, this year its basically an all black bike covered in corporate logos with a yellow front fender just to remind you its a Zook. They need to take a que from the Yosh team

I agree. I love the look of Js7 and BB4's bikes.

One would think with all the "style" they are running on that RCH team they could of come up with something better. Maybe how bad those bikes look is Kenny's problem.

Get rid of all the black and purple and replace it with the neon yellow like the front fender. Then it would look really awesome with red plates on it. Looks like crap as is.

I spent a fair portion of my early working life as a billboard painter, and it was always easy to discern the designs done by big-time ad agencies from the ones done by small-time outfits, because the big-time guys used very few, extremely bold, words; and they always demonstrated a keen understanding of line and color. Well, to put it simply, the Red Bull KTMs are a textbook example of how a race bike looks when big-money advertisers with phenomenal talent design the graphics, whereas the RCH bikes are textbook examples of how a race bike looks when someone who once got a "C+" in a high school Art class decides he can do some totally badass, totally sick, totally killer, graphics. The RCH bikes look bad in the pits, and worse on the track. It blows my flippin' mind that someone got paid to do the design work on them. They're not just bad, they're embarrassingly bad.

Suzuki's need to be bright and they were not too long ago for RCH.

The Lakers? Tongue Nah but a done right Lakers Suzuki could look cool btw Hanny's looked pretty rad if I remember correctly. Anyway not sure what they were going for tho, if they were chucking purple in they should've put more in but all in all I don't know if flu yellow, purple and black are a good combination anyway Sick

Well like some of you said, the RCH bikes are very ugly. Last years bikes were a lot better but this year is just a shitshow. I would like to know who designed them.
