RENZO PASOLINI - PHOTO WITH AUTOGRAPH - Renzo Pasolini, known as Paso (Rimini, July 18, 1938 – Monza, May 20, 1973) was an Italian motorcycle racer. His way of racing thrilled the crowds, his motto could be summed up in ”everything and immediately”, one of those riders who did not make calculations, either on the podium or on the ground. The public of enthusiasts was divided in those years by the dualism with Giacomo Agostini who won a lot. Pasolini, on the other hand, also due to his way of racing and excessive competitive spirit, was accompanied by some unfortunate events that did not allow him to win the world championship. Competitive activity: 1965-1973 In that tragic accident on May 20 in Monza (initially there was talk of various causes, seizure, oil on the track, etc.) Pasolini fell because of the cold engine that seized, being thrown back onto the track and causing the fall of eight riders. Walter Villa is in serious condition, but will recover, while Renzo and Jarno Saarinen die. The last satisfactions are only posthumous, the victory in the championship of that year and the victories in the world championship, four, collected by Walter Villa himself, with the bike that developed Paso. Pasolini is buried in the monumental cemetery of Rimini. In 1985, Ducati, in those years part of the Cagiva Group, presents the Ducati Paso 750 at the EICMA in Milan, in honor of Renzo Pasolini. The bike was designed by Massimo Tamburini, one of the founders of Bimota. beautiful vintage photo. Frame with some signs of aging, slightly to be restored.
