Exactly,

Those graphics + Honda

Sorry, simple colors with mixed contrasts at best.

Race replicas are cool - for a track bike, stupid on a street bike as well.

“Hey let’s go for a ride through Adirondaks”  
“Don’t know what that is, but check out my sweet tribal grafixxx that match my tribal armband, I don’t wear a jacket to make sure verybody gets to see how tribal I am.”

No they are not, neither is the graffity on the CBR, nor are the graphics on cars from FnF, but they all carry the same gaudy point as an armband does.

This.

- rep

I mean it really is a take of F&F, the whole graphics thing on a car was stupid now they are trying to bring it to bikes, these new designs are almost as bad as the people that put vinyl flames on their bike b/c they think it looks cool.

All sorts of quality helmets have similar designs. Is this a sign of lacking quality?

I’m a fan of Honda motorcycles and I did not like the graffiti style bike either! But yes Yamaha would be the last choice in bikes for me.
