Your favourite livery

I was wondering what everybodys favourite livery is from Grand Prix Motorcycle racing.



Two stand out for me. The Yamaha Gauloises livery and the Telefonica Movistar Honda livery. Why you ask? Well, in 2004 I remember watching the World Rally Chmapionship on Eurosport, and I saw an advert for the upcoming MotoGP race on Eurosport and it promoted the rivalry between Rossi and Gibernau. The shots of them two battling got me into MotoGP, so those two liverys I have a soft spot for.



From the past, the Rothmans Honda livery looks cool, as does the Lucky Strike Suzuki livery. The Repsol Honda liverys I'm liking more and more.



In 125cc I love the livery Marc Marquez had last year, I also love the livery's Danny Kent and Jonas Folger have this year as well.
 
Rainey's 91 YZR500 and Doohans 94 NSR500 are my two favorites, but that white livery Stoner ran a while back at PI was pretty sharp.

You mean the one ran at PI in 2009? If so, then yes, that was a brill livery.

Kesh, certainly that Lucky Strike was very cool. The red just popped of that white. The 34 looked manly, unlike the wannabe artsy ........ of today, where sometimes you have to look at it sidesways to make out what's the actually number. What fear it must have struck to see a big ... bold 34 comming up on your tail, eh.



I don't particularly like the color green, but I thought that Hopper's Kwaker looked cool.

This topic has been started many times in the past - which shows what a great thread it can make:

The traditional Yamaha KRsnr speedblock design...

..which was resurrected at Laguna in '05 for the 50th anniversary and then Valencia in the white and red -

Not GP, but one of my all time favourite colour schemes:

Also, interesting fact here..did you know 'you always have a chance of going quicker if your base is covered in the livery department' Thank's Rob

Nothing wrong with green. When I first started riding this was the baddest looking bike around.

Still makes my heart

All very good entries.



I also like that white Aussie lovery on Stoner's HRC debut. Which reminds me of Nicky's Stars and Stripes on his debut at Ducati.



Talpa, that Lambo with the 46, what is that? Did he race that in some series for fun or something or was it just presented to him for ..... and giggles?

Nah, it was just someones handywork based on a ford focus scheme VR raced somewhere, pretty cool though!
 
baross rcv.... not just the livery but the whole bike, especially with this rear end....epic

im starting to think you got issues barry and im serious.....your love for stoner is very strange even creepy... if i was stoner id take out a restraining order on you.



a white bike with some stars and a roo on it that looks like it was designed by a child is your favorate livery...wow



the ducati looks nice but you do worry me sometimes with your stoner love.... you cant comment on us boppers anymore your way way worse than any rossi fan ive known.



i hope you never meet stoner you prob kidnap him and try and make him fall in love with you.
 
1980 Suzuki RGB (better photo). BTW - this bike (this bike precisely) was raced by Graziano Rossi.
