Trying to be different doesn't mean you throw all rules of design out the window or into the seat...

Who cares how it looks if it's fast. But... ...if it don't go, chrome it.

I think it looks damn good. That's the good thing about bikes. As long as your happy with your bike then who cares everyone else thinks.

The intent is there and it's close, just some balance stuff would make the difference really.

The top dark blue band and the seat combine to add to the visual weight of the bike, makes it look heavy. Get that right and the bike looks way better.

Rear mudguard and fork guards are cool, offset. As usual some ugly logos, reversing them in white is nice but not always possible. ie, if the twisted dev was white it'd be cleaner.

Without that lighter blue color it'd look more professional

At least the guy is getting paid for all that ugliness. All I see at the track is everyone's bike covered in 17 pounds of sponsor decals......none of them getting paid or even supported for it.

Also same guys that pay retail for MX gear, parts, etc and keep the industry alive.

Fast guys don't pay retail for pretty much anything usually.

Those graphics would look better on a Suzuki but if it's what A Stars wants and they're paying for it, then so be it.

I don't care if Bam Bam rides a flat black bike, all I care is how it works and how well he rides it. If he podiums it will suddenly look great to you knuckledraggers Laughing

Swap the blues so the darker solid blue is next to the white. Match a new light blue seat cover with a white top .

If the dark blue band by the seat was the same thickness as the white band, then have red again before the seat it would be totally bitchin'

I like it, just would have matched the angle of the seat...maybe flip the angle to match the back part of the seat actually. But you wouldn't be able to see alpinestar once the rider is on.
