Criticising a designer who 'has only designed one model' is dubious criticism when it's been so successful. For a single (motorcycle) design success, I think it would be difficult to beat Edward Turners original Triumph vertical twin engine which was the basis of the company's output from 1936 to 1983.
Given todays extremely competitive market place, the best designer for any company is the own who has many differing ideas. Expand your production to as many models as you can comfortably handle, and your cover as many customer requirements as you can. Just look at the wide range of designs from the Jap factories - whatever style you're after they already produce it.
My vote goes to Terreblanche purely for the realities of todays market. My heart says vote for the Tamburini design!
