Stroke 158 - Aprilia Moto 6.5 by Starck



Ask the most famous designer to design a bike, it’s take the risk of creating a timeless icon.

That's what happened with this Aprilia, despite not having a significant market share, quickly reached the design icon status, and is now a collectable object included in several modern museum collections.

The key, as always, is the simplicity of the final design, mainly achieved with ingenious organization of the various parts, such as the exhaust which are confused with the frame.

As for SketchUp, modulation was made directly from the bike photos, so the textures were present from the beginning.

Let's start with an image showing the overall work:
