Bezzi / Barr Photoshop Phantasy Pthreadfest

[Guzzistajohn]

C'mon Mike , it is a perfect HIPSTER bike  :D I do like this one , reminds me of the OP's CX 100  ;-T

Hey peckerhead! you callin' me a hipster? You're liable to get a suprise in your electric blanky in CV!

[Sasquatch Jim]

  You have to be young to want a bike like that, us old geezers not only don't have a concept butt, but don't do well in the monkey f---n a football riding position.
  It's too difficult to bend the neck up to see where you are going.  But it is a pretty bike.

Mikey came clean on another thread and admitted to being a "rockin hillbilly hipster"  ;D Oh , no chance anyone would mistake YOU for a hipster  :D

If being a hipster is not being a fan of over priced froo-froo beers and diggin' on good old rock-a-billy music like Wanda Jackson, and Carl Perkins, then I'm a "Rockin' Hillbilly Hipster" too ;-T And damn proud of it!

[Mayor_of_BBQ]

Whose concept is it?   Is it really a Moto Guzzi idea or a clever photoshop thingie?

In either case, I'd love to see Moto Guzzi produce it.   I really think it would sell, and not just to curmudgeons ....

This looks like a random fan photoshop to me but it's a dang cool one

It's an artist with an interest in Moto Guzzi, not sure what his motivation is. But I like most of the designs he comes up with. <SHRUG>

Whatever happened to curves and smooth lines?  It's all elbows and knees.

Is being a "hipster" a bad thing? I have yet to see a true definition of what that is. Is it having a beard and wearing flannel as a fashion statement? As long as they don't force me to hug them, we'll get along just fine.

Pretty hip dude! I'm smellin' what your steppin' in.

[Frulk]

The Oberdan design is too angular for my tastes. Also and I know I'm nitpicking here, but the motor looks like it needs to be canted 5 degrees forward  ;D

  Don't want to be the downer in the group but ................ that's a Griso   :-\

   Ciao

Hey John,
That, fantasy or not, looks like a modern version of the CX. It pushes my buttons!!!

Think they would make it with carbs?

Mike :-)

[Cam3512]

Looks pretty cool. Needs dual exhaust though.

[youcanrunnaked]

It looks kinda squished -- as if the bodywork both above and below the belt line is too narrow (particularly the side covers).  As noted, it needs the 8V engine.  I would also like to see dual exhausts with an under-engine crossover, rather than the Griso-like exhaust in this concept.

Message to Mandello:  Build it!

[guzzimike]

Not bad...but it needs Alloy 5-spoke wheels such as Magni's EPMs in order to be considered  a worthy contender as a Tribute Bike to the early Le Mans bloodline.

BTW, I still much prefer the design lines of my CX100 over those featured in this rendering

(Sigh!) The 2V big block is dead. Let it go. Good greif! Why do so many people want to keep looking backwards???

you must be a lot older and geezier than me, I have a airhawk cushion and could ride it all day..

accept for the different frame and motor.

What's a Griso?

They're all specials based on the Bellagio.

[Dean Rose]

If you were talented like Chuck, you fab up the parts to make an 8V Griso to look like that. Maybe Chuck needs to start a custom bike shop, hire a couple of apprentices to learn his talents.

Good Idea!

Because something might be gaining on you!

No, I like the two valve engines 'cause the big exhaust valves make beautiful sounds, much more mellow that the smaller ones found in the four valve heads. Its the same with the airhead beemers, no contest!

I find I just need about 55 to 65 HP to get my pulse up on the public roads and with the right package that will be enough to stay pretty close to anything out there.

Old bones heal slowly, and sometimes less is better.

[kckershovel]

I agree with dropping the faring line down to match the bottom of the tank line. I will add straighten out the exhaust and arch the front fender to match the tire and I could go either way on the rear fender. Super cool I would love to see the factory build a very close production bike with 8V heads and optional ABS/trac control.

[kirby1923]

Good Idea!

Dusty CV..2025!

:-)

[dan_s]

I swear...  We really need an Oberdan Bezzi merged threadfest around here...

Bezzi's Photoshop fantasy art is just that:  Fantasy.

None of his Guzzi Photoshop Abominations will ever make it off of the computer screen...

All bikes in the last ~30 years started on a computer screen

er.



mike  :-)

  Yep , , in fact 40 HP in a 400 lb package with a 165 lb rider can keep up  ;D I also like that "2" valve sound , although 4 valve Ducs and the RC 51 made some nice noises .

  Dusty

[kirby1923]

Yeah, Allot of clanking ticking and rattling, thankful for ear plugs that filter most of that, but my S2R sounds better? too me at least that its 4 valve brothers.
