I can't find a high quality picture but when the cowboys yamaha ad came out in the late 90's I was 14 and instantly fell in love with the blue machines. To this day I think they are one of the best looking bikes. Too bad the japanese abandoned painted frames.

Yup, this is is right here for guys in their 30's. I know it didn't live up to the hype, but it looked amazing.

Came home to this brand new bike from school in 8th grade when I was 13 in November of 2007 and it's been my favorite ever since. Nothing sweeter

The Maico's are sweet. The all red Honda is epic. Love the Husky, but favored the black and gold 390 from that year.

Beat me to it. No one may have liked riding them much, but to me no other bike has been so radical a change as the 97/cr250 was . Every manufacturer except KTM has basically copied the aesthetics of the 97 cr. I bet they sold quite a few more 97 than 96.

There ya go!!!!! I had 1 of these, I put a 38mm carb on it, a pro circuit pipe and cut 2" off the silencer. It would pull Hondas down the straights and up the hills, it was awesome and handled amazingly !!!

I'll have to admit, it IS a pretty bike.

Hard to believe nobody has posted a pic of Johnny O's MUGEN. Another pretty bike.

I'm digging the '15.5 KTM Factory Edition 450 myself !

This one wins it for me, I was just getting into MX when these came out. I had a 93 KX80 and I was all about the Kawi's but looking back these 93 CR's were just awesome looking bikes.

The new Huskies are the first bike to make my wallet twitch in years.
Have Andy J flash backs.

Aprilia's make me weak too. The Italians are design Kings.
