Benzina Magazine #15

June 1, 2019 - Benzina is back! It’s been almost two years since Benzina 14 went to the printers and, to be honest, that’s a good thing. It’s allowed a regrouping and a confidence that another three issues could be produced over the coming 12 months.

In this issue there are two big 2018 anniversaries to be celebrated. It’s 40 years since Mike Hailwood’s Formula 1 win that saved Ducati. And 25 years since the first Monster, the motorcycle that saved Ducati. Again. The Italians do like a bit of drama.

Price includes shipping within the USA via First Class mail.

Here's what's in the 240mm x 210mm 100 page paperback book:
