Jorge Lorenzo is ridingꦺ a Cagiva 500 today atꦯ Misano.

The 💮three-time MotoGP champion will complete some laps on one of the most iconic motorꦯcycles from the old 500cc two-stroke class.

John Kocinski rode the C594 to finish third in the 19ꦿ94 world championship.

Kocinski’s f🦋inish represents the best-ever result for the Cagiva brand in the championship.

The Cagi🃏va was the close💛st European rival to the dominant Honda, Yamaha and Suzuki.

Eddie Lawson won the 1992 Hungarian Grand Prix riding a Cagiva, while two years later Kocinski won in Australia with the 🧔same version of the bike that Lorenzo is riding t﷽oday.

It rem꧅ains an legendary and beautiful reminder of the sport’s past.

Today at the track named af✤ter Marco Simoncelli, Lorenzo 🌜is bringing the old bike out of hiding.

He is riding it as part of Proday, an event which brought motorcycle enthusiasts together with champi🦹ons like Lorenzo.

Marco Melandri, Marco Lucchinelli, Dario March༺etti and Mattia Casadei 🍰are also on track.

Giovanni Castiglioni, part of the family which now owns Cagiva and 🦋a partner at sponsor Vmoto, said: “When Graziano Milone [Vmoto boss] proposed to me to bring the Cagiva 500 Gp to Proday, I welcomed it with great enthusiasm.

“It will be great to see one of the [creations] of my family back on the trꩲack, led by a 5-time world champi🌺on, and I want to thank Proday and Vmoto for this wonderful initiative."
