125-200cc World Champion 125's

Just thought I'd share this picture. Stored away and collecting dust upstairs of almost 1984 125 World Champions Corrado Maddi's workshop are Alessio Chiodi's 1998 and 1999 World Championship CR 125's.

In 2006 I was visiting Italy and was lucky enough to get invited to ride at Corrado's house. Afterwards we went back for a tour of the olive oil factory he operates that's been in his family for generations. I asked if he had any of his old bikes...I was hoping to see some 1980s works Cagivas. In a dust covered old room he had one of his Gilera's from the 1970's and the 2 title winning 125 Huskys that he managed.

Check out that pipe and carbon fiber sidepanels & rear fender.

lvly little piece of history. just needs the panels trimmed back. now thats a pipe. was that 125 a 4 speed?

Cool little piece of history....thanks for sharing...
