Bill Lomas and Moto Guzzi 500cc V8 engine motorcycle photo factory racer

Description

A beautiful photo, made from the original black and white negative, of world champion
Bill Lomas
, showing the engine of
Moto Guzzi’s incredible
500cc V8 cylinder
.
It shows the engine of the most exotic racing bike Guzzi ever build, the incredible 500cc V-8-cylinder! The amazing Moto Guzzi 500cc V 8-cylinder was designed and put on the track by the ingenious ing. Giulio Carcano in a record time of only 8 months! In record-form the V8 later broke the
300 km/h
mark (
187.5 mph
), with Bill Lomas as the rider! On the photo Bill shows the engine, which only weighed
123,46 lbs
(
56 kg
)!
It was and still is considered a masterpiece of (motorcycle) engineering!
The Moto Guzzi V8 delivered a massive power output of 72hp at 12,000 rpm!
This
non period
photo will make a nice showpiece when framed, hence why the photo is printed in a nice large format of 7.8" x 11.8" (20 x 30cm).
This photo is very historic. Not only shows it the incredible 500cc V8 engine, but also Bill Lomas in a great way, as he would become world champion in 1955 and 1956 on the 350cc Moto Guzzi single.
