Hailwood @ Mallory In Sports Mcs Ducati

  1. Came across this on YouTube.

    Good because Mallory is my favourite track and the Sports Motorcycles Ducati was iconic after Hailwood won the IoM. 1978



    Also good because there are other riders who I had forgotten but they were all stars back in the day.

  2. Excellent vid

    Amazing to think how worried we all get about ducati reliability, seeing that old bus getting caned like that all those years ago is pretty impressive....very impressive I meant

  3. The story that I have heard (can't remember where) was that Hailwood's bike self-destructed as it crossed the line at the TT. I think that it was not until a routine strip down afterwards that they found the damage.

    Anyone know about this?
     
  4. I’d imagine a tt race equates to 25 years ownership in the road riding world ha
