My father went to work in Kenya in 1958 ,and after six years of
school I went to England to finish my “A” levels
at the Portsmouth Technical College .
There for
my daily transport my first motorcycle was a Triumph Tiger Cub , but
after passing my driving test I bought myself a Triumph Tiger T100A
, in true “rocker” style , 120 miles per hour with no brakes
!Back
to Italy in 1969 for my army service , I starter work as warehouseman
. Tired of this in 1982 I opened a motorcycle
repair shop , specialized in British motorcycles called “l’inglese”.
This went on until 2001 , when a terribile road accident forced me
to close my shop .
Over the years I had bought a stock of spares first from Plinio Pasetti , who imported Triumph and Norton motorcycles in Italy in the late sixties , and then from Luigi Ghezzi , BSA importer from the fifties and then adding Triumph and Norton from 1974 . I have sold most of my spares to www.ronfarthing.co.uk but I have over 30 years experience on British bikes and Triumph in particular .
