Many years ago when I had a British Racing Green Centauro there was a guy on the Centauro Owners Group forum named Jim Palma. His burgundy Centauro was the absolute most beautiful example, anywhere. It was pristine and he certainly knew how to ride it. They were a motorcycle well before their time. They literally wouldn't run right at all as delivered. Thankfully, Will Creedon made a chip that could easily be swapped out with the oem computer chip that allowed them to run quite well. I still miss that Centauro.

Your greenie was no slouch in the looks department. Jim was a treasure of Centuaro knowledge. I know a lot of that made it into mine.
