We have a WINNER!!!!

While the Spanish weren't known for reliability, they sure did have an eye for making a stunning dirt bike.

Runner up has to be the 1974 Bultaco M135 Pursang with honorable mention going to the boat tail Pursangs from 1969-1971.

78-79 CR250R for OEM beauty stock off the showroom floor. No contest.

The Phantoms (I had one) were drop dead gorgeous in their glass work and color scheme. The blue and orange were almost electric in how vivid they were.

Alright if I'm asked to build a replica (having the budget as well of course lol) this is the bike I'd do:
Ryan Villopoto 2007 KX250F (2008 version with the red plate was a beautiful bike too but I couldn't find any pic on the internet)

Idk, I've always thought the cylinder/fin design combined with the expansion chamber design and routing on those bikes was really ugly. Just my opinion

So nice, this is the bike that made me want to get a real dirt bike when I was a kid. Still looks good today!

Yes. This 100% gets my vote. This bike & effort turned me from a long time Reed hater to a lifetime fan.
