Cagiva Freccia

Late news breaking...

Unconfirmed reports are coming in from our roving Mercenary Correspondent in 1988 that the Ducati Paso may not be the most Cyberpunk and Eighties thing ever after all.

It has long been accepted that the 1986 Ducati Paso designed by Massimo Tamburini was the pinnacle of eightiesness and also the most Cyberpunk artifact of that, or indeed any other decade.

However news fresh in from 1988 is calling this long-standing wisdom into doubt. Secret photographs smuggled out of the late eighties reveal a barely credible More '80s, More Cyberpunk motorcycle. 

The 125cc Cagiva Freccia C10R, also designed by Massimo Tamburini is broadly similar to the Paso but with more cowbell. Thought to have blown his lifetime supply of eightiesness on the Paso, Tamburini evidently experienced a second, even greater surge of concentrated eightiesness on the Freccia dialing the Cyberpunk all the way up to eleven.

Remember, you heard it first here at Mercenary Garage.

Elefant

I'm off to Italy on Monday to (hopefully*) recommission my Africa Twin and ride it back to Dublin - So Italy and adventure bikes have been occupying my thoughts...

Anyway, I was in the Ducati museum in Bologna a couple of years ago. It's good. If you're in that part of Italy, it's worth a detour. This was my favorite bike there...

*The reason I'm hopeful about this trip, as opposed to in a sort of 'taking it for granted' mindset is, I'm not entirely sure that the bike is where I last left it. Nor am I sure what condition it's in. So it might get complicated...
