Cagiva Elefant 350 (1985 - 86)

The Cagiva Elefant 350 is a motorcycle that defies its somewhat unflattering reputation. Despite its heavier build and less-than-stellar performance, this model boasts an impressive array of high-quality components.

At the heart of the Elefant lies the potent Ducati-derived dimo-twin engine, providing a unique blend of power and character to the ride. Paired with Hlins mono shock absorber, Marzocchi forks, and Brembo braking system – all borrowed from larger models – this motorcycle delivers an exceptional riding experience.

Whether navigating twisty roads or cruising down straightaways, the Elefant 350 rewards riders with a thrilling blend of agility and control, thanks to its precise handling and responsive engine.
