Let's post the team bikes and gear once they become available.

I'll start off with Colton Facciotti's bike who will ride the #28 Honda for Team Canada in the MXGP class.

Team Germany released a teaser of Henry Jacobi's bike along with his helmet. I don't follow the GP's so I'm hoping the teaser is the front number plate/fender if not I hope they do something with the bike because it doesn't look very "German".

I'm assuming those graphics are what he's currently running in the GP's?

bringing the white V back on Seely's helmet is excellent

Love threads like this especially the helmets, boots and gear sets Woohoo

Germany's national flag colors are on the top right corner of the number plate. They also put Germany's coat of arms on the front fender and inside the "O" of the rider's name on the number plate.

Well seeing as MXdN is a race against other Nations being patriotic makes a lot of sense don't you think?

Desalle's bike isn't that bad but that big green M takes away from the look in my opinion. I wish Monster, Rockstar, Red Bull, etc. would let things slide for that 1 race but I understand that they pay the bills and that it's the most watched race of the year. Just a shame really.

I know the colors for Germany. I'm just hoping the teaser is the number plate/front fender and not the whole bike. If it's the whole bike then the side shrouds leave a lot to be desired.

Favorite race of the year. I love seeing things from all the different countries involved. The one off bikes, gear, etc. is just so cool.

Yeah for sure I'm all for the teams being patriotic with there helmets and gear but for some reason I think the bikes look tacky when the colours of the country's flag doesn't match the OEM colour, guess I'm just being fussy though.

I totally get what your saying. Some teams can pull it off and others not so much but that's why I like that it's one off everything. If the bikes would keep the same look they have all year to me that would make it a little "boring". They already have one off helmets and gear at some races whether it's retro SX or military appreciation or whatever else. Sure you can say they have a one off look graphics for military appreciation but to me they all look similar with the camo patterns. Not really original if you ask me.

Wish Rockstar would let them get rid of the yellow in their logo, the yellow kills it IMO.

Agree, and the actual # 8 could use a restyle, it's just blah.

Osbornes bike doesn't look good, seriously.

It looks cheap.

Was expecting more from the number 8. It's a little bland. So far both Cole's and Facciotti's setups are my favorites.

I agree. Was hoping they'd improve the look from last year but it's exactly the same.

I think Seely's bike is alright, but the black shroud and the black 7 on the side kinda throws it off, in my opinion. Red, white and blue go great together, I'm kinda disappointed.

Yes, for the love of God and country, please change the font of the 8. Big downer for sure.

That's cool. Tell him to send you pics of them when he's done printing them and post them here.

Sounds good. Post pics of them once you have them printed.

Is a sneak peak available?

Here's Team Canada Shawn Maffenbeier's Helmet




Personally I like the matte look but absolutely hate the Rockstar logos. I know that Rockstar's colors are black and yellow but in my opinion there's too much black on that helmet especially for that race.

I can't wait to see Facciotti's and Medaglia's helmet. Pretty sure they're going to blow Maffenbeier's lid out of the water.
