Gotta say i don't like the look of them! They 'look' bulky. cumbersome and heavy.

So you don't like the look of Kawis? haha... They do look pretty stout compared...

BUT... Black wheels in particular make a bike look chunkier...

And the number plate section is making the rear seem bigger too... The photoshop I did looks lighter for sure. Fortunately looks don't make any difference to actual handling haha.

My retro ktm

Looks great! All it needs is red hubs and frame and it would be the perfect replica.

Was gonna change the rims, but checked, they were definitely silver back in the day... though technically a 93 has a blue seat not purple.

I've been looking the last little while at resto rebuilds now! Not good news for my bank balance. Wondering about a retro KX or YZ build. Dammit!

If Suzuki were to offer an RM250 in this style for '16 I'd be the first in line to buy one and do the '89-'90 retro look. That bike is SO badass looking.

This, my friends, is what a Suzuki is supposed to look like. Hello, Japan, are you hearing me. Get rid of the red and black. They don't belong on Suzuki's.

Edit: This girl looks all business.

Honda and KTM, really? What party poopers! I love these retro nights and love the people who get in the spirit. KTM, Honda and Factory Kawi are a bunch of lame asses.

In honor of retro night. I'm gonna have to bust out my Auburn and pop some wheelies.
