Yacouba Galle's Bestiale concept

Amounting to little more than custom bodywork on an MV Augusta Brutale chassis, Yacouba Galle’s Bestiale concept is nonetheless a significant bike. Essentially a declaration of intent, Galle wants to use this concept to launch his career as a designer.

We like the way he uses Street Fighter–inspired design themes, like the kicked-up tail and flat headlight housing, integrating them into a more mature look. It brings a welcome edge of aggression to the Brutale beneath it; previously so feminine it felt limp-wristed.

Yacouba works as a journalist for Moto&Motards magazine in France and is also the man responsible for the insane KTM Super Duke launch video. We predict big things.
