Apart from Dungey's, they all look like the same bike with different stickers. They're all mechanics' works of art in terms of being absolute perfection, but damn, they're just stickers.

I wish they would have kept the red stripe on the rims for racing

Not a big fan of the white rear fender on RV bike, copy cat of Honda.

Alessi bike looks sweet as most of them do.

I like the looks of Stroupe's bike, there was a picture of it somewhere but can't find it now. I thought it was the best looking yamaha

You guys are serious? Most of these bikes look like patch-jobs of nothing more than sponsor stickers. These teams could use better industrial designers, that's for sure.

Keep in mind, it's plainess is amplified by the fact that its the only picture not taken with a DSLR and a decent flash. Its a point a shoot shot in front of a garage door. By no means a flashy bike but serves its purpose. representation of two title sponsors, honda and supercross.com

Still my least favorite but I'm sure the simple design was an intentional move rather than a bad designer. Its not like they don't have the means.

Dungey's all orange is awesome. The TLD bikes are sweet too. A lot of good lookers out there, except Short's bike.that is a truly awful looking effort. Really? Was that the best they could do?

So that is the Moto Concepts MC450 that Alessi will be racing. Not a single Suzuki logo visible anywhere.
There will be after he reels off a couple of box finishes and outpaces Metty. Wink

You can tell what kind of budget they are on IMO. There's no way they payed top dollar for that design.
