CR250 1979 ???

Wow I love them both, I think it's cool when they retroize a modern bike.  I think a down-pipe will soon get trashed with long travel suspension though.

I like them both as well. The vintage dirt bike world would be a very boring place if everyone restored bikes to look exactly like the picture on the sales brochure. So it is always refreshing to look at the ideas of someone who is artistic and thinks outside of the square. I personally would have preferred the Elsinore to have the original RZ tank painted with the green-stripe colours and an up-pipe, but each to there own. I also like the look of the Service Honda CR500AF done in the green-stripe colours.

Husky didn't quite get it right unfortunately:

But this Kato rendition by Oberdan Bezzi looks the goods.

Yes, Husky didn't quite get it right with the pic Firko posted, but I don't mind Oberdan Bezzi's idea of a Husky. Hopefully , Husqvarna might return to innovative design and outside the square thinking, with the merging back with Husaberg and the Swedish engineers. It would be nice to see a return of a refined 70 degree laydown Berg motor, or maybe even a revisit to automatic transmission technology.
