New Racer






























I just bought Brian Catterson's old Allazzurra racebike. I plan on getting it back in race trim by the end of the year. The bike was featured in the 2 Valve Ducati book by Ian Falloon and was raced often at Willow Springs.

Very nice bike. Did not know that this bike was still around. Now it must be a real collectors item. Looked at it (in the book) several times to spot some good modifications for my Alazzurra. I suppose you are willing to publish some (unexpected) hidden features?

Not too much to tell... The bike is fairly stockish except for FZR600 forks and wheels. Brian did mid 1:30's around Willow on it, which is exceptional.

Hi Ed,

Any other frame modifications (reinforcing)at this bike? Or at you're champion bike? Ever a need for it under racing conditions?

Thanks, Ben from Holland.

My black #1 bike has a 99% stock frame. The only change is repositioning the rear shock mounts to raise the rear for clearance.

Brian's bike is fairly stock,too. Some brackets have been removed, but that's about it!
