This book is a compilation of contemporary articles on the Spanish Bultaco from 1964 through to 1970. Included are road, trail & track tests, new model reports, history and racing. Models covered: Metralla, Sherpa, TSS, Mercurio, Matador, Metisse, Pursang, El Bandido, Campera, El Tigre & Lobitto. The key man in all of this was Francisco Bultaco. A former director of Montesa, it was he who gave his name to the fledgling enterprise that was established in June 1958 at a meeting of associates at his country house. Their machines were generally in the small displacements class, starting with a 125cc with 196cc and 244cc as options although by the late 60s the company was marketing the 362cc single for the El Bandido off-road racer. The philosophy of the company was probably unique at the time insofar as any technical improvement or innovation was always proved in racing first and then passed onto the private buyer. There was a direct link between success on the racetrack and what the public could buy. Between 1964 and 1970 Bultaco had established itself as one of the more characterful motorbike manufacturers, the world’s press in particular were rapt by its simple but effective design and the performance that it gave along with excellent handling characteristics.
