Team Monster Energy Yamaha

Already posted yesterday.

Those are killer looking bikes and normally I don't like all black. Kickass.

Thanks for that action shot from Mantova. Those bikes are nothing if not being ridden. Wish I was there at Mantova and Valence.

For me, I'm not into all the black,
even last yrs. bikes.
You gotta have the factories colors somewhere
worked into the design scheme even if it's minimal.
For me, it's shows the factories involvement &
gives respect to their help & support.
& what's with the trend of white rears........
Honda
KTM
& now here too.........
Don't like it.......
the un-finished look,
the grab what ya found look.........
Not a good trend to me design wise/look wise!
Anyway, that's just me...........

I think you made the point right there. thus this years bike is black ;0)

I think once we can get away from having to have a red honda, blue yamaha, etc. it will help the sport with outsides sponsors. you no longer will have to look for sponsors the match your colors ala KTM. I hate tp use this example butare all fords in nascar blue?

The livery of a bike is directly related to the investment from sponsors. Its obviouse then that the lions share of Rinaldi's budget comes from Monster. KTMs colours I suppose are just a reflection of the factories massive investment in thier race team.

I rather see a black yamaha dan a broke blue yamaha.
