when it comes to aesthetics, the shroud area is probably the most anticipated design section when a new mx machine is rolled out to market. somehow over the past 6-7 years, i feel the designers have lacked in this area, aside from KTM which is taking it leaps ahead. KTM btw is the coolest MX manufacturer to EVER hit this sport.
however, Kawasaki just introduced this amazing looking 2014 KX85/100. now this is what their larger fleet should look like, because like some of the other mfg machines over the last decade, the big bikes have suffered a lame shroud design which takes a lot of the appeal away imo. the bikes look cool in person but in print magazines and on the web, they seem boring and lacking creativity.
Kawasaki - make your 250 and 450 mimic the design of this! because this is one badass looking machine.

this new 85/100 uses different angles and brings it all together way more stylishly imo.
That's no bad thing, I think the lil Kawi looks the tits.
Wish this re garnered interest in 2t spreads to them re-introducing the 125.
