That doesn't make him the best designer for Ducati, and I think the Supermono is still the most beautiful piece of automotive design ever penned, but it was a 916 for me, all the way.

Unreasonable emotion comes with owning a Ducati.

Yup...wasn't going to reply but have to agree...Tamburini's design made me sit up and take notice of motorbikes.
I was aspiring to own a duke from seeing a 916 in '95 sitting at home with a new baby on my lap!
AND it's still my dream. It would have never entered my head to even attempt to pass my test if it wasn't for that man...
