Ferrari, just once, gave its blessing to a motorcycle bearing its name

David Kay

It's a sidebar in motorcycle history, rather than a major chapter: Ferrari as we know it today did, just once, permit its brand to be attached to a motorcycle – a one-off 1995 900cc four created by David Kay (above) and the team at MV Mecchanica Verghera in the UK.

A factory blessing was decided by Piero Ferrari, the second son of founder Enzo. The latter had strong motorcycle connections.

As for the motorcycle, it clearly has MV Agusta roots.

There are several stories online about the machine. Our favourite is this, a long  assembly of sources published by The Autopian. See it here
