Brain Ducati CF 01

This prototype, built around a 250 GP, also used the Yamaha TZ elements or Honda RS, all mixed with some.  16 castings for a framework of only 6.5 kg!

Preparations developed by Japanese teams for Pro-twins races are mostly genuine technical jewels. One of them goes even further with a technology that could one day end up on the series of motorcycles: a carbon frame. Alan Carthcart us discover this amazing Brain Ducati.
