John Wittner was one of those human beings of those who mark school. Although it is no longer among us, the story of the dentist who created motorcycle motorcycles Guzzi is still exciting and, occasionally, he still receives some kind of recognition such as the one that designer Oberdan Bezzi has carried out with a concept of what a sports motorcycle V100 sports would be like.
It must be said that little this design has to do with Wittner’s motorcycles, beyond the color game at certain times and the fact that the Guzzi motorcycle logo does not appear but a Guzzi in the deposit. Well, that and the peculiar engine of the Italian brand with those two pistons looking for its hole on the sides, all with a tubular chassis.
From that point we find a proposal in which the carbon is an important part of it in what would be the part of the saddle, in addition, we assume, the rest of the fairing that would be painted and in which we located precisely the wink to Dr. John.
It also draws attention a detail that we do not see the solution in the image of Bezzi and is the swinging that is monobrazo. Not having the design created by the other side, we do not know exactly the way in which it would be decided to anchor it to the chassis, although the truth is that since it is a simple style design is something that does not matter much and that, by the way, it is good, it looks good for the motorcycle.
The Guzzi V100 motorcycle «Dr. John Tribute »has very curious details
He also hurt that minimalist colin and escapes coming out under it, but not in the style that we are used to but in an intermediate space. How could it be otherwise, Bezzi resorts to Öhlins suspensions and Brembo brakes to bring the imaginary set to the maximum performance in these sections.
In general, there is no doubt that the tribute is at a great level, although there is something that does not finish fitting and are the headlights. Very well integrated, but far from what was the essence of Dr. John’s motorcycles, who was always focused more on the speed than those headlights could be necessary.
