We promised ourselves that we wouldn’t publish any more Ducati singles by Oberdan Bezzi, after the Italian designer set out with his pen and paper to imagine the Italian brand with a bevy of off-road inspired motorcycles; however Bezzi’s Ducati Desmolight 450 concept was just too great of a design to ignore, and thus here we are. With styling drawn from the current Monster line, Obiboi’s 450cc single looks delicious, especially with the coloring that’s reminiscent of Ducati’s Corse theme. This is the kind of bike that would go in our fantasy garage, and we’ll need a Prozac knowing it won’t be built.
Deus Ex Machina is coming stateside, and for its American debut, the Yamaha SR500 based SR542 will be their inaugural motorcycle. Based on a model motorcycle, the Deus has some coin in it with Öhlins suspension, and a littany of hand done custom fabricated parts. Pictures and press release after the jump.
