Ferrari motorcycle built by David Kay Engineering
and bears frame and engine number SF-O1M. It’s the only real Ferrari motorcycle
in the world.
Back in 1990, David Kay wrote to Piero Ferrari (Enzo Ferrari’s son), asking him
if he could build a motorcycle that would carry the prancing horse badge, in
tribute to the late Enzo. Piero did approve the project and gave David the
permission to put a Ferrari badge on his motorcycle.
The bike, which took 3,000 man-hours to build, was completed in 1995. Its 900cc,
four-cylinder, DOHC engine is custom-built, and produces 105 horsepower at
8,800rpm – enough to propel the 172-kilo bike to a top speed of 265km/h.
Other bits on this 1995 Ferrari 900 include a tubular steel chassis, aluminium
bodywork, custom-built exhaust system, digital instrument panel, Forcelle Italia
USD fork, Brembo disc brakes, 17-inch Astralite wheels and twin WPS shock
absorbers at the back.
