Authorities release photos of motorcycles seized from fugitive Olympic snowboarder.

Amazing collection! I'm seeing at least ten desmosedicis from Rossi, Lorenzo, Dovisioso, Iannone and Capirossi. NSR500's of Haslam and Gardner, NS500 of Spencer, at least one Foggy 916, a couple of Suzuka 8-hr RC45 or similar, WSBK Kawasakis of Russell, Gobert and lord knows what else is down the back I can't make out.
Hope they don't all get crushed!
It's another sign of how shady some of the dealings surrounding MotoGP are. Several teams (especially Moto2/3) are rumoured to be basically money laundering operations.
 
My question is why do Ducati (VW, Audi), Bohnhams and others cooperate with this black money / laundry money criminals?
 
Same here in Germany „ Geld stinkt nicht“ but anyway these are official works bikes i. e from Audi (Ducati)

What about your 200 Gemini, you can send fotos by pm, I also think about starting a collection too 😉
 
I should clean my glasses. I didn't notice that bike lurking in the shade. I reckon you're right about it being a Supermono. It seems he has (or had) the ultimate Ducati collection.
 
I watched the video. Some fantastic bikes for sure.
I think he’s guessed the Borough Superior incorrectly. Can quite tell what it is, but a Brough??? Hmmmmm.

It`s a MV Agusta 600 4C Turismo from the mid to late `sixties ......... the rectangular headlamp is one of the things which gives it away .

One of 135 made ....... 220 kg coupled with 52 bhp claimed and shaft drive meant it was a bit of a slug ........

The weekly paper Motor Cycle here in the UK gave one away as a prize in a competition back in 1968 .


Wouldn`t be a Brough or Vincent in their normal shape or form with those telescopic forks and disc brakes .......

Yes! Good eye!! Of course I see it now.
 
Yep., I reckon rocket is correct. Those MV's had the Scarab twin disk hub much the same as my racebike, which would look like the shadow Chris is pondering. Nothing but those era MV's had such a butt-ugly headlight setup. :D
