Derbi 1973 Angel Nieto Replica

Derbi-1973-RAN-PA-1.jpg
Spurred on by Angel Nieto's long history with the company (5 World Championships between 1964 and 1972, and twice runner up) Derbi released the Angel Nieto Replica in 1973 as a privateer racer.

The disc-valve two-stroke single developed 15.5 hp at 15,000 rpm and used a Mahle piston and 24mm Irz carburettor.

As most of these bikes were heavily modified over the years it is unusual to find one in such original condition as this.
