Founded in 1987 by
Umberto Borile in Vo Euganeo near Padova, it reborns in 2010
with the entrance as a co-owner of the Bassi family and
takes the name of Umberto Borile & Co.
An extraordinary
adventure, a symbol of an authentic Made in Italy and a
story that comes from the passion of a man, Umberto Borile,
which supervises step by step the production of the
motorcycles from design to construction using only the best
materials and technologies.
A vision that
blends, making them an unique thing, an Italian quality and
modernity of the chosen solutions.
The first motorcycle was
born in 1988, the Feather 520, a single-cylinder 4 stroke
500 cc. off-road model, so innovative, that its futuristic
design solutions are still being adopted today.
In 1997 was presented the
Borile B54T, with this bike we chose a new route,
reinventing a classic off-road look from the sixties. While
inspired by the English style of the era, our B500 is
thoroughly modern mechanically, assembled by our craftsmen
with painstaking care and featuring details in aluminium,
machined precisely and polished by hand.
The first Café Racer B500CR was presented
in 1999 with a new engine in unit with its gearbox. This
bike rapidly earned the respect and appreciation of the
motorcycle press, being recognized several times, as one of
the best Italian bikes in recent history.
The last two years have seen Umberto
Borile & Co. Srl put the wonderfully unique Multiuso in to
production, rapidly followed by the stunning B450 Scrambler,
powered by our exciting new engine. We have plans for a new
version of the B500CR, and a B350EN Enduro model is in the
works too. The beautiful off-road ‘B500 Ricki’ is currently
being hand-built to order, in a very limited run of 20
specimens.
Any corrections or more information on these motorcycles will be kindly appreciated.
