Is this what the future of sports bikes could look like? This eye-catching design, conceived by famed designer Frank Stephenson, who led the styling teams for iconic cars like the first Mini hatch under BMW and the McLaren P1, is named the FSD 59 and was showcased at the Geneva Motor Show<\/a> in Switzerland last month. While it remains a design study and has not yet been brought into the real world, it is quite compelling.<\/p>\n

The team behind the FSD 59 says they aimed to create a bike that could adapt to different riding styles and preferences, bringing together the best aspects of sports bikes<\/a>, supersport cruisers, and high-end commuters.<\/p>\n

When viewed from the front, the FSD 59 stands out thanks to its small LED headlight and bulbous bodywork void of any of the wings and appendages of many current sports bikes. It also sports a removable windshield and has a panel that runs above the handlebars and flows seamlessly back to the seat. This shape means there are no gauges in the traditional position and instead, there is an AR-enabled head-up display, giving the 59 a unique look.<\/p>\n

Frank Stephenson Design<\/a>\u2018s bike has been conceived to feature an electric powertrain, meaning there is no need for a fuel tank. The company describes it as being \u201clight and agile without being too aggressive or compromising on comfort and safety.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOur team has been working hard behind the scenes to present this to the world and we are very excited to share it. We look forward to announcing more news on this in the future,\u201d Frank Stephenson said of the bike.<\/p>\n

Since Stephenson launched his namesake company in 2018, he has designed space capsules, supercomputers, supercars, eVTOLs<\/a>, watches, and baby seats. It remains unclear if the FSD 59 will ever reach production.<\/p>\n
