Graphic Detail #5 - Jeremy Mcgrath's 1995/96 Factory Honda


Let me start of this edition of Graphic Detail by saying, Mcgrath and Lamson's 1995/96 Hondas were some of the best looking bikes ever! That just fuckin' happened.  If you disagree with me on that, then you might as well just slit your own throat, you've contributed all you can to this world.  Honda knew that, that's why they kept pretty much identical Graphics for 2 years in a row and then only tweeked it slightly for '97(once they'd lost Jeremy and any title hopes). The 100% designer's didn't even need to show up for a 1996 design pitch, they just stayed at home counting their money and calling Taxi's for the sluts they picked up at the club/Havasu the previous night. Again this bike sticks with just four colours, which as I've said before (several times) is the max amount that should be used on any two wheeled sex symbol. The design on the tank and rad shrouds is amazingly simple but looks simply amazing (Oh yeah, didn't know I was capable of that, did you?) The white rear fender and side plate look was 14 years ahead of its time (see the 2009 crfs) plus the Number 1 on the plates just gives it that extra sploodge value. Let's face it, it's pretty much porn. I mean, who wouldn't want a threesome with this bike and the special 1996 MXDN edition, it's the equivelent to the Mum and Daughter and daughter three way, the Holy Grail.
