Another piece of Italian motorcycling history gone: Franco Farnè

It's very sad to see that the multi-faceted and historic 'personaggio' at Ducati that was Franco Farnè has died aged 81. We published a fascinating interview with him in Issue 5 of the magazine, and his passion for motorcycling, and for Ducati, was in his every bone and sinew.
There's a heartfelt piece by Livio Lodi, curator of the Ducati museum, on Farnè's passing here.

Here are a few images from our article with Franco Farnè.
