A Brief History of the Marque
Built 1981-1983 in Vendôme (Loire-et-Cher) by Louis Boccardo, formerly of BFG, in partnership with Siccardi and others, the M.F. (Moto Française) was powered by a Citroen Visa 650cc engine with gearbox and final drive from the Moto Guzzi V50. Visually similar to the R45/R65 there were three models, R, RT and TC. Some 90 machines were produced before the firm ceased trading in 1983.
