This big Italian roadster is in a class of its own in the clan of beasts of character. It does not lack, far from it, and its engine is a monument in itself. Do not expect to find a competitor of the Ducati Monster there. No, this Centauro is a cocktail of power and charisma. A massive machine, elegant and which presents well. Some delicate attentions are present: inverted fork, injection for the twin and cardan for the transmission. The big V2 fat proof of strength and emotions. It vibrates, it grows, it’s big watts caught in the fat of a copious couple. The chassis handles well as long as the road is good. If the asphalt degrades, the limits of the motorcycle are quickly reached. The philosophy of the Centauro is not efficiency but sensations. She does this easily with a distilled charm without sweeteners. Too bad the driving position is so restrictive.
