Description

A superb and rare photo of
world champion
Fergus Anderson
during
1953 Isle of Man 350cc Junior T.T.!
The great Scotsman Fergus
Anderson
is seen riding the experimental Guzzi 317cc S.O.H.C. single. It was a bored out 250, but it FLEW! Fergus finished 3rd during the race and that was such a promising result that the Guzzi factory decided to compete the rest of the season as well in the 350 World Championship. Not a bad choice, as
Anderson and Guzzi indeed won the 350cc World Championship that year
! This wonderful machine was designed by Guzzi's genious top designer Giulio Carcano. It weighed
269 lb
and could reach a topspeed of
130 mph
. The engine's power output was 33 hp at 7,500 rpm.

non period
