Classic Duke 888

Alf of Alf's Motorcycles was running a Ducati 888 Corsa at the Classic TT. It was ridden by the able Mick Godfrey. Mick was flying in practice with a lap of 113mph. From Alf's Facebook page:



Unfortunately they had engine troubles. Overheating in practice and then an internal knock at the Jurby Festival (the day before the race) prompted and overnight engine change to a standard SP5 unit. The new engine did 3 laps of the Formula 1 race before a broken wire put an end to the valiant effort. Alf say's they'll be back next year.
