Pernod 250 - 1985

This bike’s frame was designed in 1985 by the Frenchman Alain Chevallier, at that time famous for his revolutionary bikes. Only one example produced! The frame was built with a steel frame (25 CD4 S) and titan. The engine is a rare bi-cylinder 250 cc with rotary distribution and magnesium carter, developed by the French engineer Jean Bidalot. This Pernod Chevallier participated at the 1985 season with Jean François Baldé. It was restored in 2007 and participated at the Varano Motor Show in Italy in June 2007, as in former times, driven by Jean François Baldé personally.
