I don't mind it; there was a dearth of dark blue bikes last year after the departures of Gauloisses and Telefonica/ Movistar. I question Marco's choice of color for his number. How about a red number? You know, something that would stand out from the dark background so fans could actually read your number.
 
I don't really like it...it's all scrappy with the design. I think it's mainly the stripes or however they describe them on the sides of the bike. Owell it's the performance on the track that counts.
 
it's HORRIBLE....that back hugger/fender looks like an up-side-down bathroom sink!.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (news1213 @ Feb 23 2007, 11:59 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>Yeah, I actually like the look, but I'm sure the sponsors are not too happy with the small fairings..there is barely space for the stickers anywhere, and thats probably why the bike looks so busy..
If I were a sponsor I would look into getting my logo on the underbelly of Crashy's fairing. Bound to get some coverage a few times a year.
 
If they add the rest of the side fairing, they could get rid of the logo's on the front end.Cause it looks amateurish!And while they're add it flush that toilet of a rear fender..
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Rising Sun @ Feb 23 2007, 08:08 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>It's, uh... different. I think a solid white line would look better. And some colour in the wheels, like others have mentioned. I wonder if Hanspree's sticker size reflects how much money they've actually kicked in?

Prolly just the lack of space

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Yamahamer-AL @ Feb 23 2007, 08:30 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>.... i could have done a better job than that!...looks like a WSBK, or WSS bike..

looks too much like Winston Ten Kate..... where's James T?

Well, HANNspree is sponsoring both Gresini and Ten Kate so they are the same bike minus the fairing space

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (baldylocks @ Feb 23 2007, 09:52 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>They look a bit........... un-finished ?

I know f all about aerodynamics (i don't think i can even spell it) but surely a bit more carbon fibre on the side wouldn't kill anyone ?

Well, aerodynamics of the fairing does very little in terms of top speed because there is little to cover the actual rider in a smooth contour.. I think HRC is going for weight reduction, although IMO it ain't much.
 
i prefer JT's Hanspree Ten Kate Blade.

Hanspree certainly got their moneys worth there.
 
They must be putting a fair bit into it, they had banners all around the circuit and stuff like that. But the bikes do look nice.
 
They make flat screen televisions and LCD's. Mainly in novelty shapes and stuff like that.
 
The main thing I don't get (and the reason why I would be pissed if I were HANNspree) is that they put a piss-yellow "HANNspree" over a white background. I could barely read it if I were standing right in front of the bike! And I am willing to bet it will be damned hard to read on TV and impossible from the stands. Its like money wasted. Just make it red or take out the white background, for crissakes. Somebody get me a job as a livery designer. I could make some kickass looking bikes!

Oh, just came across this. Theres a full picture of the KR bike on crash.net

It looks like "I'm not a bank" Kenny Roberts found some kinda sponsor! Anybody know what that "M" is on there?
 
Sweet. KR bike looks great
<
but
maybe my brain has been washed with red and blue from watching
palace too much. That m looks seriously familiar. Can't think where
from...

Oh. Maybe i've been in a black hole all my life but that "livery" word is seriously weird to me...much prefer paint job!

Its almost the same colours

I was just thinking it looked like the old Modenas.

I don't think the Gresini bikes are'nt that bad. I mean, sure, not the best paint jobs but it sure is good to gets some real blue back after last year.
