The term “race replica” can mean different things: a stock bike with a graphics design that mimics a famous competition machine, or an homologation machine that will be used in part or nearly whole in some form of production racing. But all that goes out the window here: this is a genuine World Superbike Ducati…
It looks like Gilera was taking its’ racing version of the Saturno very serious. It was specifically created for “Super Mono” racing throughout Europe. A simple glance tells you there isn’t much in common with the Saturno road bike other than the name. These bikes were bumped up to 569cc’s and apparently some factory…
If you only had money for one, which would you choose? The seller that brought us the Ducati Santamonica at the end of February has found some other gems in the back of his garage. Like the Santamonica, these bikes are actually located in Italy but listed on Ebay UK. Another fine example of…
You know it is exotic when the engine size doesn’t match what the badge on the fairing says. Ducati meant it when they called this the Raymond Roche Replica; it was built for racing.

Links updated. -dc I remember coming across this photo back in 2006 and thinking to myself, “Wow! Moto Guzzi has turned the corner.” I thought this bike would be the beginning of…
There certainly are not too many of these about. A 1998 916R which apparently is a Corsa factory bike. Now that would be tough to believe except this is a FBF bike but for those who know about Eraldo Ferracci and his relationship with Ducati, there would be little doubt that this beauty came from…
Guzzi Exotica: 2006 Moto Guzzi MGS01 CORSA If it looks this good standing still, it must be a sight to see and hear in motion. Can anything really be bad with word “Corsa” in the title? This is as exotic as they get straight from the Moto Guzzi factory to date. Trying to find accurate info…
