Taking its initials from designers Arduino Catelli and Leonardo Fiorani, CF was founded in Piacenza, Italy in 1928. The firm built high-performance 175cc and 248cc models, which enjoyed considerable success in racing, until it was taken over by Fusi, the Italian FN importer, in 1937. In 1967 an ex-Benelli executive, Sr Campagna, revived the brand and began producing two-stroke lightweights powered by Minarelli engines. Following Campagna's death, the firm was sold and closed down for good in 1971. Styled as only the Italians know how, this beautiful ultra-lightweight from a rarely encountered marque displays a total of 15,377 kilometres on the odometer and appears cosmetically restored. The engine turns over with compression and the gears engage. Offered with a printout photograph of the motorcycle. There is no import paperwork with this Lot. The vendor has had the machine running recently.
