That was a name thing, as I never thought the original Maserati people built bikes. But it was a nice tie to another interest. I must say, however, that since they do not even use the famous trident mark, they have lost a lot of lustre for me. I may still have one someday, but in part, the initial thrill is gone. Perhaps a Fiorelli Coppi? >>

Crosswaithe & Gardner, the famous English car restorers, made a track frame with the Maserati trident engraved in the crown. And, no, you can't get one. I tried. It was a one off. Phil Brown
