Much better. In the late 80's Panasonic changed their bike paint schemes to front to back fades. They took a good selling bike, the DX-3000, and made it into a yellow front to black back fade. Customers called it the bumblebee bike and it killed the sales for the year. I had a hard time looking at them on the sales floor.

I like it much better now. The red and blue stripes and the lettering make it look like a different paint job.
