Moto Rumi La Strada prototype


 In 1960 three versions of this sweet little 4 stroke V twin were shown at the Milan Motor show, 98, 125 and 175cc. Unfortunately Rumi was struggling at this point and the machine did not make it to production. One prototype remains.

Boy, pretty. I'd like to see a cutaway.

Moto Rumi made goofy-looking (weren't they all?) scooters that apparently were hellishly fast for 125cc and great handling for what they were.

Oh I want that! They made unusual 125 cc flat 2 stroke twins- like the one in the scooter. I think I've only seen one or two ever.
