The Spirit of Semtex

Palmer

i più ameranno, progettino del 1994, costruito a mano da un ingeniere di vari team motogp...impressionante...135cv/140kg...per chi capisce l'inglese, noterà molte e molte assonanze,sia nello slogan portatne del progetto, nella sua realizzazione e nella filosofia sottostante per pesi, forme, centralizzazione, pezzi inutili...ma veniamo alla moto...
