Best Looking MX'er of all time. Vote.

To be a little controversial; What do you reckon is the best looking dirt bike of all time?

You must support your nomination with a piccy. 8)

I nominate the Husky CR390, but its gotta be the black one.



 
I should point out that I've never owned a husky, only ever ridden/raced one (1972 400)  and, other than for appearance of the CR390, never wanted to own one. In fact I think most of the others, Aberg rep's, mags and late model white ones, are on the other end of the scale - they look crap.

No cuppi doll for cyclegod  :D, RM looks like any other Jap MX'er fo the period IMHO. Nothing wrong with it but not a stand out.

090, you might sway me. Elegent simplicity  8). Maybe the red is overdone but not bad; not bad at all  8).

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder but I can't think of anything prettier than a Rickman Metisse.

For me its a toss up between 1974 CR250m and the 1974 Maico 440.

My best looking choice has to be an HL500.

White tank and the LHS exhaust!
