After winning on flat track, they are now preparing for supermoto, and then supercross !

Of course it is a lot of photoshop work, but not from anybody:
Read more about Oberdan Bezzi
He obiously made a "supermono" with half of an 848 or 1098 engine.
I think he might have taken a lot of parts from the Aprilla supermoto ;-)
But there are a lot of thoughts, creativity and design work into it, the result is indeed very nice!

This guy is taking way too many liberties with a great name.
-No trellis frame
-Ganked swing arm
-Scrappy bodywork
-Fake supermono engine
It's not even a attempt at a mono, just at testastretta that's been rotated 70 degrees and had the vertical cylinder lobbed off. Basically it has no sump, and also the fact that there is no room for the pseudo 2nd rod. It's too small from the outside.
And I like how he names every major manufacturer and then says he cannot specify what he's had a hand in, just saying his work has been produced. Why doesn't he have a portfolio of real examples? Guy's a poser if you ask me.
