At least it is paying off for Yamaha and Honda, A kawi guy is leading the title, KTM second in points and all the attention coming into A2 so far has been on the Factory Honda bikes and the JGR Yamaha's. Good for their sponsors.

JGR, Honda, Rock River, Jimmy Albertson and Weston Peick are the ones I've seen so far. Nothing from Kawasaki, Yosh Suzuki, or KTM.

Wow, that is spectacular! The blue rubber fork boots are a nice visual touch, but I think I'd leave them off!

Anyone know if Barcia knows much of the sports history?

Last time Honda did this you could bet that Shorty and Ivan and Davi knew some history. Barcia is probably born in the 90s?

I only changed a couple of tiny details on each bike... Very nice though, especially the '80's Honda! ^^^

as cool as the idea is I don't know why it wouldn't be EXACTLY the same.. did the painter do it by memory? seems strange to go to the effort of the replica to just end up kinda half assing it

All that said I love the sentiment and still think it's cool
Because Troy Lee holds the rights to the exact pattern. That wasn't that hard to figure out was it.

I am sure in real life he is a cool cat..
To be fair he does have to babysit this place, So it is a job to him and we all know how work can suck..

But c'mon man its Supercross season and most of us have reverted back to the Kids we all were or still are..
Met him last year at STL SX, he's a pretty chill dude so it must be the amount of posers and idiots in here that gets to him, but on the flip side, on a public forum you have to expect a little of everything.

And next time I buy a bike I will remember who SUPPORTS the sport. As soon as Toyota makes a half ton Diesel, I'll have one of those also. I think the retro is awesome. Actually getting into this weekends race.

Don't give a rats ass who wins the SX title, Put Pastrana on a Yamaha or Honda and I'll watch him ride in last place before I want to see Stewart or Villopoto or Dungey win. Hell, put Henry on the line, place would go freakin crazy.

Outdoors started yet.

What are you talking about dude, you have a view of the third corner after the start, in the middle of the biggest timing section and have a perfect view of the last corner before the finish.

First base is on the right, correct!!!

Ezza, my man, I'm sorry but you are lightyears ahead of what any of the people at suzuki could come up with.

They would look at that killer design and be like:

Yellow frame, silver rims, black hubs and that would be the tits. This is just a seat cover and an RM graphic. Barcia's team wins best looking retro bike by a country mile.
