Objet d'art pt.VI
Gilera-Bimota
The 1993 Bimota-Gilera GB1. Powered by a 750 Single from their Paris-Dakar bike and made to compete in the Italian Supermoto championship.
DB1
The Bimota DB1 is for sure one of my favorite motorcycle designs, even though I've yet to try one. This is a 650 prototype built by Bimota, commisioned by Ducati. Bimota would later go on to develop the DB1 pretty much based on this bike.

Roger Tallon

Another French designer. His most well known design is the TGV. My favorite of his is the LIP Mach 2000 watch. Also designed this Derny Taon 125 from '55. Pretty innovative and the inspiration for the Bimota Mantra?
