You do remember Neon, right?

I tried to come up with an appropriate and interesting weapon for her to use - and eventually decided for her to simply rely on good ol' fisticuffs!(At least for now.)

She stepped on his banana of love, right-right?

Neon's style of fighting is probably something like kickboxing, thus attacks aimed at certain sensitive body parts of the mugger are indeed... plausible.

In this case the mugger is lucky that - quite ironically - it's not the biker who has the helmet here...

You really leveled up on the drawing here! (Is that a Ducati?)

Thank you!

I can't recall what exactly I googled for finding reference pictures, back when I designed that thing (for last year's 30 Days), but it may quite well have been that I looked at Ducatis. Googling them now, I see that there is indeed a certain semblance.

But I still do know that I consciously didn't follow the contours of any existing bike model too closely anyway. In-universe, the brand is supposed to be an Okazaki (first mentioned here and here) - which in turn is a biological inside joke.

Also: Yes, I am aware that most people primarily associate red cyberpunk bikes with the manga/anime Akira.
