Oberdan Bezzi is an italian industrial designer specialized in mortorbikes design. He is a proffesional, although in this free time he also creates design proposals that he publish in his blog Motosketches. It caught my attention the constant way in which Bezzi works, because he publish at least one sketch every month.
In his blog you will find things like this Ducati Martini Racing:
Or this Moto Guzzi RR01:
One of the Bezzi designs that some time ago captured my attention (and that is not showed in his blog) is this proposal for a motogp developed by Porsche and sponsorized by Gulf. This sketch was related with some rumours saying that Porsche was going to race in motogp.
The sketch showed some curious aerodynamic solutions, it is remarkable that the rear area is much more covered than nowadays. I find interesting the rear cover located under the swingarm, that extends the keel of the bike backwards.
In general the rear area reminds me the Derbi 125 GP 1988 ridden by Aspar, which is one of my favourite bikes throughout the time (photo via Europark).
