Zaeta by Oberdan Bezzi

Oberdan Bezzi creates concepts of bikes in production, hoping to improve on what is out there, he also mashes up brands and resurrects old bikes and manufacturers. He's turned his talents to the Zaeta. The road bike (with Z plate) looks too conventional to us, as a concept, though with those chunky forks it would look good in the flesh. The race bike is above it.
Paolo, the man behind Zaeta, says is going to make the road-going Zaeta a little less of the traditional street tracker look when the road bike surfaces.
Below is Bezzi's Yamaha 250 V-twin street tracker. That's the Virago motor, right? Thanks to Fordy for the tip-off. G

Unfortunately, not in the U.S. Another bike on the "we're not smart enough to appreciate it here" list. Like the FTR230...
