this change seems to have occurred sometime during the decade of the seventies
T-Mar hath writ that Agrati acquired Torresini in eighty-three
have wondered how long they held it
today the Torpado marque is the property of the Esperia entity

I was actually considering presenting serial numbers, to see if they helped define vintage and/or model of the bikes. That said, the oldest of my Torpados must be the Professional. This is the number presented
The Pro was the only one to arrive with a lovely head badge, rather than the more common sticker..
