Not impressed, I thought it would be something to look at after having how many years of watching the competition.

...and it's LT-R, not Z.

To be honest, I think all of todays new quads look terrible. The front of the 450R looks stumpy, the YFZ looks like the yamaha engineers wanted to see how many sharp angles they could make out of the plastics, and the new LT-R looks like a spaceship. What happened to the classic designs of the Banshee, Zilla, and 250R which, in my opinion, look meaner than the new bikes?

I agree. All the new quads have that wing look.

Since when is the zuki lt250r considered a marvel of exterior design? That bike is ugly as hell too, and the zilla was nothing to clamor about. The honda 250 R looked terrible until you removed the headlight from the early models. I think the new zuki is ugly and I'm not a huge fan of the hard lines on the raptor 700 nor does the winged bubble bat look of the 450R or the jagged dvx400 appeal to me. But I certainly dont think the old machines were all that appealing either.
