Much as I like a Guzzi (I had a V50), I'm struggling to see this one was inspired?

I like that.

But yeah, not seeing the inspiration part.

Here's my apple inspired by an orange.

From the title I thought it was going to be horrible but that looks nothing like an Red Bull and I really like it!

Given how ugly and feeble the Breva 750 starts out, that's a very good transformation 👍

And that's a fair point. From something 'styled' sub-Eurostyle Honda Superdream, it's a good transformation, with lots of interesting detail.

Although "CAD design" in the write-up made me snigger :)

There are some really nice touches on that, but I think my /\ edit is more appropriate.

I like that, quite a lot. Lots of nice little touches and the bike works as a unified whole, rather than just being a collection of bling aftermarket bits. I'm definitely coming round to under-engine exhaust systems; they free up space at the side and back of the bike and lower the CofG, even if only marginally. And the inclusion of the Japanese family crest as a logo is spot on.

Interesting way of filling the 'hole' with a mini-saddlebag ;)

BTW - my comments were also based on it having very little to with Red Bull. Which has got to be good

To be fair, Red Bull do know how to make a speedy car!

It always used to be a thing in F1, people would disparagingly refer to them as "The Fizzy Drinks Company", to which I'd reply "The Fizzy Drinks Company who are kicking your arse" :D

I could live with that. The car connection is lost on me,though.

FTFY.

Nice bike though, and it actually has a mudguard.

I'd ride it.
