Auction closing Saturday 8/27 at 1:45PM ET | 10:45AM PT, bidding has been hot and heavy for this unique, amazingly preserved final-year airhead. Acquired by Moto Borgotaro last year, this bike had been preserved by Blackfoot Motorsports in Calgary, Alberta for 27 years.

NEW T-SHIRTS
—
LAVERDA SFC SHIRT BY HOLGER AUE
The Laverda shop shirt comes straight from legendary comic artist Holger Aue, who I met over 20 years ago riding Guzzis all around Hamburg Germany.
Orders ship week of September 12.
DUCATI 750SS GUGGENHEIM SHIRT
Based on the decal from the 4km-Ducati 750SS that was featured in the Guggenheim’s Art of the Motorcycle show. This T-shirt is meant to remind us that some bikes should never be restored, they should be preserved. All the details in the cracks tell the story that is unique to the motorcycle. This Ducati 750SS survived for 47 years un-run and un-ridden and recently sold this year to a private collection.
Orders ship week of September 12.
POSTERS
DUCATI POSTERS
Moto Borgotaro was lucky enough to be a part of the sale of 2 of the most significant original Ducatis from the 1970s — the first being the only un-run 750SS, the second being a never-ridden Ducati NCR all the way from Japan. Outrageous photography from in-house photographer Glen Allsop shot on location at the Guggenheim museum and Tribeca, NY.
