History
This is one of the world's best known motorcycles. It was designed by Giuseppe Salmaggi in 1940, and a total of 6,000 were built in several different versions, until 1958. As the model evolved over the years, attention was focused more on the cycle elements than on the engineering, which remained faithful to the original design: vertical cylinder, rocker arm timing gear, bore x stroke 84 x 90 mm.
With its unmistakable styling, it is one of the most popular motorcycles with enthusiasts all over the world.
