That's an ugly scheme if you ask me........... I wonder how it ever got approved from the design studio and Rossi himself..............  Why not a "blue" color MotoGP scheme like the one he's using this year?

Because Yamaha wants to honour (or cash in on) Rossi.  The blue scheme and "Goooo!!!" is a Gauloises tobacoo theme.

The sun & moon, black & yellow theme is Rossi's personal design.  It's on his helmet.

There are many different scheme to choose from to honor Rossi and only Rossi.  The one shown here doesn't cut it any way.............  His 2003 helmet looks a lot better than this crap.................

Do you mean this helmet? http://www.agv.com/AGV%20News/GoldHelmet.htm  [note the words on Vale's sweatshirt.]

Or do you mean this helmet? (https://www.ccsforum.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.agv.com%2FPhotos%2FXR2%2FXR2_ROSSI_VALENCIA_11.jpg&hash=2c16a38473b8c9299974ede1178d9bfd5aff85fe)

Or even this one in 2003? (https://www.ccsforum.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.agv.com%2FPhotos%2FXR2%2FXR2%2520Rossi%2520500.jpg&hash=4772052521d4e8129b3382f0fda04088da62c8eb)

The last one did have a pretty cool moon image on the back.
