    Trackhouse should have done a vintage Colin Edwards Aprilia.

    LOL half of those look better than their normal schemes. I like the Chesterfield APE best, with Castrol, KTM etc.

    Not a huge fan of the Rossi (Yea I know Motion) and the Taka (what is that) also dont love the trackhouse.

    Factory Ducati was LAZY I actually like Prima but still bettter with the Purple.

    All the bikes look great. I really like the Aprilia paint and the memories it stirs of Biaggi on a 250, but that red, white, blue Honda is awesome. Definitely the best looking retro scheme for me. Please Joan, take it easy this weekend, don't destroy all that beautiful bodywork.

    The KTM and Gas Gas, I'm not sure I consider retro, but they are beautiful.

    Edit. I read the comments comparing the KTM to wonder bread and now I can't unsee it. now edited to say the Gas Gas bike is beautiful

    What BigBird posted is just a sampling. MotoGP and RRW sites have all the pictures posted that show all the riders with their bikes. :p

    I have emailed Dorna, explaining the definition of 'livery' is 'horse stable.'

    I did not like the factory or Pramac Ducati themes and I felt that the riders didn’t seem to excited to talk about them.
    The Biaggi replica Aprilias were nice, the Castrol was great and I liked listening to Zarco describe things.

    An autistic transgender kid throwing chalk at a wet sidewalk could design a better paint scheme than VR46’.

    As a proud parent of a child with ASD (autism) let me congratulate you on your incredibly ignorant, small-minded comment.

    Well nothing stands out from first practice much… Miller putting in a new tire at the end and trying to stay relevant for a job… Fernandez back to the back since he’s locked his in…

    Pecco looks to be back on his slow P1 data collection run mid pack strategy…

    Side note. I always thought the autism puzzle design would look so cool on a bike. A guy I know dedicated his mini truck to that paint scheme and it came out great.

    As the ashamed and embarrassed parent of a child with so many traits that should make an ASD diagnosis a no-brainer, let me congratulate you on your selective outrage over your particular sacred ox being gored…

    That made me think of Anna Vives with Down’s syndrome that did the design for JL99’s helmet at Barcelona in 2013. She also partnered with him to design sunglasses and did other design work too. :cool:
