A lot of super nice bikes but I have to say, I am not a fan of RV's new bike. The white rear fender and all that lightning bolt jibberish just doesn't look that great to me. Not as terrible as the Supercross bike, but no bueno in my opinion.

I happen to like the white spokes on the H&H bikes though.
Yeah, it kinda seems to want to be very TwoTwo-ish.

Tell me you're joking...

I'm a designer, and a pretty damn good one if I say so myself, and that thing, is fucking disgusting...

I agree...

I think the Kawi's look good but they went to far with the white stripes...

Reedy's is the cleanest I think, and works with his gear really well... That Red white and Blue stuff is almost enough to make me get a set and put the TLD GP gear in the cupboard...

I guess Mike doesn't want the $150 that Suzuki contingency pays for winning a SX main. WTF is he thinking passing up that kind of dough? Laughing

I think Dungey's bike look bad ass!

Grants bike is less than awe-inspiring to me.

So does that mean Alessi isn't eligible for contingency?

Reeds bike by far, it's like the Ferrari of MX. Got nothing to do with Reed being Aussie either

They way I understood it was that Moto Concepts just went and bought their bikes with no support at all (also the reason they have guys on different brands) so no reason to but any logos on. The H&H bikes didn't have any Kawasaki logos last year either.

The Muscle milk logo kinda kills it for me as the font doesn't flow with the design (still great looking bike though), Reeds bike has the little details perfected for the overall look

I'll be honest. None of them other than Dungey's and Roczen's and maybe Stewart's do much for me. I mean they are all amazing of course but none really stun me. Something about the US bikes I am not liking that much this year.

I much prefer the FIM's MX1 and MX2 bikes to be honest. Roczen's and Herlings MX2 bikes are beauties as is Monster Energy Yamaha's Gautier Paulin and Steven Frossard. Absolute beauties that put the AMA SX/MX bikes to shame, in my opinion. Too many ads on the US bikes or something.

I think the Factory Honda's simple classic look is the best, not too cluttered with sponsors, plus I really like the Muscle Milk fork guards. Second I think is the Red Bull KTM Lites bikes (looks better with black numbers), I may be in the minority but I like the new shrouds.
x2 on the Honda

I think Short's bike is by far the ugliest, Villopoto's bike is my favorite. I liked the H&H bikes better when they were black and white.

I like Leib's bike. They really matched the color scheme to the main sponsor

That thing looks like something you would find on Craigslist in 1992. It just looks used.

Clearly the budget started tightening up when it came time to put graphics on the bike.

Dungey's then Alessi's for me. Love the gold rims on the zook.
