Default ugliest bikes?

I was just wondering, who do you think makes the ugliest utility bikes? I know I could
have asked this on the polls forum but I wanted to hear why you think the bikes are ugly.
Also, I am asking the people on the Honda forum because I know we all ride the
best looking bikes there are and the 05's are no exception. Bikes with poor build quality are ugly no matter what the plastic bodywork looks like. My vote for the ugliest manufacturer is Arctic Cat, hands down. To me their utility bikes just ooze ugly, from the goofy bodywork to the bad placement of switches, ect. Also, they have cheap looking stickers on them to identify the model, looks like something you would buy at K-Mart. Second place goes to Polaris, the only
reason I say this is that from the handlebars back the newer bikes look very nice but the
front rack looks like it was designed by one guy and the rest of the bike by someone
else, they just don't match. Bombardier deserves mention here as well, their step-thru
design is very handy but is hard on the eyes, so much for form over function, although you have
to give them credit for having the ***** to make a bike that is funcional but ugly. Dont' be shy, let me
know what you think.

I agree. The rounded "egg" shape looked pretty cool back when the bike was a TRX 250X, but 18 years later; couldn't Honda at least redo the 300EX's styling, like they did with the 400EX?

Also, I'm aware that Hondas are typically red; but I'd also like to see Honda offer some of their sport quads in blue, blue/white or blue/white/red just like they did back in 1986-1992.

A blue TRX 450R would kick SO MUCH A$$!
