Yes, yes I know it's Wikipedia and it's probably bollocks written by some rando' Ducatista but I have heard similar things before
It happened when Ducati was owned by Cagiva and the Castiglioni family. It would also explain my MV Augusta built 300ish F4 1000 Senna's
[QUOTE=Voltaire;1131121613]I love those WW2 German Bikes ( clearly Triumph liberated the swinging arm tele fork alternator as reparations)
Love that front guard 1959 to 196?. Gotta admit though, I didn't notice that when I was watching the movie...
There is a grey blur, and a green blur. I try to stay on the grey one. - Joey Dunlop
[QUOTE=pritch;1131121617]Putting my Triumph anorak on, head looks like a 60's one, front guard is off some tourer,pre 57 front brake and the twin down tubes are 60 onwards.

TBF there was a German Triumph motorbike company

plus the BSA bantam was a copy of a prewar DKW
From memory all the guards spoke english in the movie as well
That didn’t look like a terrible deal, really. Wtf is that seat though.

I believe the bit about not being the brightest. Is a bike capable of self-harming? We need an intervention.Although we can not claim to being the biggest and brightest motorcycle shop in New Zealand...
