it’s different cosmetically and imo the best looking dirt bike in a decade

when did motocross bike design go from SoCal cool to Mad Max? I seriously don’t get the overwrought looks of modern bikes.

yes let’s discuss this. there’s a lot of room for better graphics in both bike design and apparel.

I agree he’s waiting calmly for his moment. we can argue how much time he has, but the guy has speed so if he’s playing a supercross rope-a-dope, it would be a historic strategy

Bingo

Billy Whitley raced these and got to see them first hand. They were super trick bikes, and still look the part today. Great find.
