A superb and rare image, made from what we believe is the original negative, of the famous Honda CB 750 Four, ridden by Italian racing ace Vasco Loro, in action on the circuit of Imola on the 12th of April 1971. The production racing event on Italian circuit of Imola was one of the racing highlights of the year. Vasco Loro finished the 18 laps (90.3 km – 56.1 miles) long race in a brilliant 4th place; in a time of 39’15”1.

 

In the early 1970’s, long distance racing was extremely popular in Italy. These events were responsible for the quick gaining popularity of the heavier sports motorcycle, like the Honda CB 750 Four, the Kawasaki 500 and 750 two strokes, but also the Italian machines like the Ducati 750 SS, the Moto Guzzi V7 Sport, the Benelli Tornado, and the Laverda 750 SFC. Riders that would make world fame, like Franco Uncini and Marco Lucchinelli, all participated in these races before they made the steps to the Grand Prix World Championship racing scene.
