JvB-MOTO - Real Rock`n`Roll bikes!

Ducati Flat Red

They call it retro. We call it Rock`n Roll.
Winner of the int. Ducati Design Contest `04 JvB

In my work for the Ducati design contest”Design your Dream Ducati”, I wanted to find a compromise between the style of a classic, clean chopper and the performance of a superlight, fast and powerfull sports bike. Inspired by old-school hot rods , I wanted to build a real rock`n roll bike.

1:12 Scale Model

JvB

Timeless hot rod styling, absolutely minimalistic design, low riding position and visible clean technics bring motorcycle fascination even to people who are not into bikes.
Of course it´s not the most practical bike, neither is it made for the racetrack, but it doesn´t want to be.
It wants to be good fun, it will deliver lots of character and it is going to be cooler and quicker than every „cruiser“ ever built.
