Look at this paint job for this weekends GP at Laguna, WOW!!! even for a UJM it looks nice, even in the slower yellow ;)

All to celebrate the return to the US and Kenny Roberts getting them 3 GP titles

In memory of Felix's 916RS of course....they've copied his paint scheme !!!!

Hope he enjoys hearing that thrap round the Laguna Seca course on Sunday....little consolation I know, but consolation all the same

It's a shame, nice looking bike, but all the other riders will just see his cans as usual;)

I've always loved that paint scheme - got to be one of the all time greats

Phwooooaaaaarrrrrr !!!!!!

As a schoolboy motocrosser I grew up lusting after the yellow/black/white yz's that the states got. Then when the LC's came out, a few of the lads that worked for my dad had them (I was too young), but the one that sticks in my memory is the one with the Roberts paint scheme. I've never seen one since, but I'd buy one if I saw one for sale. Anyone got one they want to sell?

shame that they always have to splash the bikes with tobacco advertising, as this looks great.:burn:

forget Rossi, this is for Edwards! I bet KR jnr feels sore seeing his Dads colours out on his home track.

Yamaha celebration round this one, they have spent $millions on Laguna, they want a home win.

Look at Colin's helmet :lol:
