Built by Lino Tonti, designer of the famed Moto Guzzi frames, this 500cc GP racer was developed using a pair of Aermacchi 250 top ends mated to a crankcase of his own design. It debuted in 1968 and 15 of these 1969 machines were built, the one pictured reserved for works riders Alberto Pagani (Italy) and Jack Findlay (Australia).
