Motosketches' auto-inspired two-wheeled designs
I ran across this posting over at Motorcycle News and thought I would share my findings with the rest of the class. A man by the name of Oberdan Bezzi has his own blog where he sketches his two-wheeled fantasies and posts them for all to see. That takes some guts, unless, of course, you are extremely talented, which we think Oberdan qualifies as. As we are a site that obsessively covers the automotive industry first and foremost, we think you should take a look at his ideas on the types of bikes companies such as Audi, Mercedes Benz and Bugatti could produce. BMW already produces motorcycles, but he tackles the Bavarian automaker anyway. Now that you have started off with those, feel free to take a look at some of his other designs and notice how he integrates well known styling cues from major manufacturers into his designs. Very good work indeed!

Very impressive. Some of those look as though they could actually be built...which would be great to see.

i agree that these bikes have beautiful designs. but two things:
1. to the suggestion that the companies should actually build these bikes: mb and audi have ZERO bike experience. it would take them years before they could make a bike that would be even close to competitive with what BMW makes. drawing a neat-looking bike is one thing, actually engineering it is something totally different.
2. i think these designs are spectacular. but i don't quite see how he integrates styling cues from the manufacturers into his designs, as you say he does, jeremy...

Audi is formed by many car makers...
DKW, Horch, Audi, NSU, Wanderer, Adler..
in the 1950´s NSU was the second biggest motor bike producer in the world.(based on numbers). They become several time world champion in different classes. Sure it does not help much today but they are not completly green in bike bussiness.
DKW produced bikes too.

The bugatti doesn't go nearly far enough. And they all look japanese to my eyes.

Makes me kind of bummed seeing all the sweet motorcycle brands that we're unable to buy.
