kawee should bring back that green/blue combo.

that looks like a 96 CR?
I had a 94, the red plastics were so bright, they might as well have been pink.
the parts book called it "atomic red"

Ahhhh... my MAGENTA 92 YZ 250. Be pretty sweet to see one of the current Yamaha teams go with the 92 graphics for a race or two.

Was it Unadilla last year when Honda ran some old school graphics. The bailey replica and the 1-800-COLLECT honda looked so good.

I had one of those Suzukis. Slowest piece of crap I ever had the displeasure to throw a leg over.
Used to eat clutch baskets for breakfast too.

I just remember watching Guy Cooper jumping everything he could back then on those things. We need to get some Cooper SX footage on here.

That McGrath/ Lampson replica bike is badass. I was thinking about getting those graphics for my bike.

Nice taste, Torco. I liked those two bikes too: they've held up well over time. Unlike that nasty RM that helped kick off the thread.

Great photo! Classic. I hope you've got some photos from that race. Please post them if you do.

If it had a blue ceet it would be almost perfect.

By the way anyone heard if the Mugen Banzai kits for the 2009/10 CRF450R have came out?
