technical knowledge and a decidedly aggressive driving style. Angelo Bergamonti was hired for development of the six-cylinder prototype and to be a teammate to Agostini in the World Championship. In 1970 a single 350 6C bike was built in the motorcycle workshop. It was continuously developed, but was not obtaining the desired results, precisely because of the defects already identified by Agostini who in that year, achieved double success in the 350 and 500 championships with the "tricilindriche". Giacomo Agostini tested it again in 1971 while testing in Modena. Abandonment The development of the "350 6C" continued into the first months of 1971, to be finally abandoned after the opening race of the Temporada Romagnola, in which Bergamonti lost his life, and new regulations that limited the maximum number of cylinders to four in the world championship.
