Bikes like the 916 & MV F4 are as gorgeous today as they were when they first came to life on Tamburini's drafting table. It's hard to name any other designs that have proven as timeless.

For those whose Italian (or whose Google Translate) isn't any better than mine, here's an obituary in English:
