The Desmo Story | Italy’s Museo Prunaro Deconstructs Desmodromics | Alan Cathcart | Motorcyclist Magazine

The Desmo Story | Italy’s Museo Prunaro Deconstructs Desmodromics | Alan Cathcart | Motorcyclist Magazine | Ductalk | Scoop.it

  Though motorcyclists typically associate desmodromics with Italian Ducatis, the term doesn’t have Latin roots.


WORDS: Alan Cathcart

Though motorcyclists typically associate desmodromics with Italian Ducatis, the term doesn’t have Latin roots. It’s actually derived from two Greek words: desmos, meaning controlled, and dromos, for the run, or track, an object follows. In engineering terms, it refers to a valvetrain that opens and closes its valves positively, using a solid lever mechanism instead of a spring. British engineer F. H. Arnott obtained the frst patents for a desmodromic valve system in 1910, and the frst practical application of the technology appeared in the Peugeot L76 racer that won the 1913 Indianapolis 500. But Ducati remains the only frm on two wheels or four to have successfully applied desmodromics to mass production.
It therefore makes sense that “Desmo Story,” a year-long exhibit chronicling the history of desmodromic valve actuation, is hosted by the Museo Prunaro in Budrio, 15 miles east of Ducati’s factory in Bologna. “Bologna was the Città Desmodromica in the 1950s, when no fewer than six different car and bike manufacturers in this area were working on desmo engine designs,” says Ducati’s Technical Director Gianluigi Mengoli, organizer of this exhibit. “I regarded it as a duty as well as a pleasure to help Ducati enthusiasts understand the history and development of the desmo concept.”

The Vintagent: 'MOTO BELLISSIMA' Italian Motorcycle Exhibit AT San Francisco Airport

The Vintagent: 'MOTO BELLISSIMA' Italian Motorcycle Exhibit AT San Francisco Airport | Ductalk | Scoop.it
From thevintagent.blogspot.com - December 11, 2011 6:22 PM

The San Francisco Arts Commission is mandated by political brokering to include art and exhibitions in public spaces in SF; a small percentage of all large real estate deals is earmarked thus, and SF Int'l Airport, being one of the largest pieces of real estate in town, has a huge collection of art on the walls of its terminals, with the best at the International Terminal. Each gate has a huge painting (Squeak Carnwath, Enrique Chagoya), and the walkways are dotted with sculptures by the likes of radical ceramicist Peter Voulkos and detritus/horse sculptor Deborah Butterfield.
