Oh dear. And some people hated the Ducati 999. Here's the Bimota Tesi 2d.
Are you sure this isn't a "cut-a-way" view?????? Phheeewww.

Some kid is really handy in machine shop. I'll be interested to see the results when he's finished.

Hang a fairing on it with view windows to the neat parts, carbon fiber on the rest.
Ride it...

Looks like they've abandoned center-hub steering.

I voted "hideous", but that is only because you did not have a "butt-heinous" category.

Did they steal the headlight setup from the R1200ST?

Re..that front view...looks like those mirors should have the indecators in them...then they could loose the front idecator wing thingies.

As for the Tesi, i responded that i liked it. I always like to see forward thinking (or outside the box thinking, fwiw) with bike design. Can you say Suzuki Nuda front end???? whatever did suzuki do with all that research into the nuda? dallara??????
As for the streetfighter (eliro?) THAT BIKE IS FREAKY DEAKY AWESOME!!!!! I think the bike may have to elevated to supra-brutale status.

Suzuki lore much past the race bikes of the '60's, '70's, and '80's is not an area I have ever delved into much... And the Suzuki Nuda...
Well, it just never was my cup of tea... All I know about it was that it was supposed to have hydraulic drive to each wheel, and steer hydraulically as well... I seem to remember it was strictly a "concept" bike and I don't recall there ever being a running prototype.
Cheers!

The 1991 Gilera CX125 is still cool to me.
