    I don't like it, it looks like they've given a child free reign with a spray can. Prefer the original repsol design.

    Been trying to get these pictures to load on my phone all yesterday I gave up and loooked on the lappy instead.

    It looks like one of them cheap chinese sets and the colour looks really garish and yucky.

    It looks like it's been let loose on a bunch of failed university art students on smack, the original Repsol design is awsome....what were they thinking?

    From what I can gather it was originally a Guy Martin design, a brown colour with what looked like rain drops on it, I think that was Guy Martin I,m not sure???????? Anyway if there if is not one member that like the scheme then one could argue Honda have made a big mistake and will either discount it or repaint it? We will see.

    No, it was a John McGuiness Rep, designed to look like a pint of guiness.

    Yuk, who ever would purchase a bike in that colour scheme....... good look when trading it in !!! You sometimes know that some colours will grow on you... this one will not.

    Repsol spanks it's arse into next week.

    Was that colour scheme not a competition ran at a Spanish primary school for the Aragon MotoGP?

    Certainly different.
