Derby 392cc
« on: 15.02. 2022 09:36 »
"The only example made, this 392cc 4 cylinder 2-stroke was constructed by Derbi in 1954 under the technical direction of Jaume Pahissa . It was meant to compete in the Barcelona 24 Hour race but didn't prove to be reliable enough, and the project was eventually canceled."

Thing that strikes me is the amount of steering trail. Hardly a bike for the 'esses'.
