This is a very rare opportunity to purchase an interesting motorcycle. It's from the The Professor Fritz Ehn Motorcycle Museum Collection.

70 kilometres from new
1986 Villa Daytona 125 Frame no. 4175 Brothers Francesco and Walter Villa began building their own machines in the mid-1960s. Walter raced Villa bikes before his rise to stardom, securing three consecutive 250-class World Championships for Harley-Davidson between 1974 and ’76, to which he added one in the 350 class.
Manufactured up to 1988, the firm’s lightweight roadsters,successful moto-cross and enduro models used motors of Villa’s own design. From 1986 the roadsters featured water-cooled engines, such as the Daytona 125 offered here.
Acquired for the Museum in 1987, this particular machine has never been registered and has covered a mere 70 kilometres only in the course of homologation testing for the Austrian market. It is offered with bill of sale, Italian/German-language specifications, original technical drawing and customs document.
It is in need of some light restoration. The tank has several rust bubbles. The engine turns over, but the fuel system will need an overhaul. It isn't registered.
Please satisfy yourself before bidding that you know what you are intending to purchase.
