		Fabio Taglioni died in Bologna in late July at the age of 80.
		Taglioni had complete control of the race team in those days, an arrangement which suited him perfectly - he was willing to take the responsibility and to spend the time, if only he could be free of office politics.
		Fabio Taglioni lead this small team and its few bikes in the paddocks, always in jacket and tie and with a cigarette in his mouth, while Franco Farne' greased his hands and overalls.

	Fabio Taglioni - Wikipedia
		Nach einem Studium an der Universität Bologna stieg er 1943 als Motorenkonstrukteur in die Rennsportabteilung von Mondial ein, um dort 1953 von Ducati abgeworben zu werden.
		Um den Ruf als Motorradhersteller zu festigen, sollte ein Sportmotorrad mit geringsten finanziellen Mitteln entwickelt werden, was Taglioni dann in Rekordzeit mit der 100 ccm großen Gran Sport (auch als "Marianna" bezeichnet) auch bewerkstelligte.
		In diesem Rennmotor fand erstmals die von Taglioni entwickelte Desmodromik (Zwangssteuerung der Ventile) Verwendung, die noch bis heute Markenzeichen sämtlicher Ducatis ist.

	The Ducati V-twin
		Fabio Taglioni made his initial scetches of an idea for a V-twin.
		Taglioni only had limited resources at his disposal, and there was a certain marketing risk involved in developing and trying to sell a larger capacity bike when the company was known only for smaller singles.
		Taglioni´s second drawing was completed exactly one moth later, on april 20, 1970, and here he indicates a projected power output of 80 bhp (SAE) at 9.200 rpm from 750 cc.

	Guardian \| Fabio Taglioni
		By the time that the engineer and designer Fabio Taglioni, who has died aged 80 of heart failure after a battle with cancer, retired from Ducati in 1989, he had given to that Italian motorcycle company a trademark sophistication which parallels that of Ferrari in the world of automobiles.
		Taglioni stamped his identity on the company when, in 1957, he built the 125cc Bialbero, the first machine to incorporate desmodromic valves.
		It was addressed by Taglioni and, as he went on stage, 5,000 riders revved their motorcycles in tribute.

	The Apollo
		Ducati's Fabio Taglioni produced as many as 1000 different engine designs during his 30 years as the company's engineering guru (1954 until '84), three of which were fours.
		Taglioni considered liquid-cooling but rejected it due to complications and bulk, and likewise turned down Berliner's suggestion to incorporate shaft drive (which Taglioni mistrusted) in favor of a duplex final-drive chain.
		Taglioni was equally prejudiced against employing four valves per cylinder, meaning the V-four featured desmodue cylinder heads with a single camshaft per bank driven by a pair of toothed belts, Pantah-style.

		The prancing horse has not always identified the Ferrari brand only: Fabio Taglioni used it on his Ducati motorbikes.
		Taglioni's father was in fact a companion of Baracca's and fought with him in the 91st Air Squad, but as Ferrari's fame grew, Ducati abandoned the horse; this may have been the result of a private agreement between the two brands.

		But, by 1954, an engineer named Fabio Taglioni had joined Ducati, and his brilliant aesthetic sense combined with his genius for motor-making transformed the firm into a design and motoring tour de force.
		In 1955, the Gran Sport was only a 100cc bike with a four-stroke, single-camshaft engine, but by late 1956, Taglioni had developed a triple-camshaft "desmo" 125cc Gran Premio racing bike capable of a screaming 12,500 rpms--unheard-of revs in those days.
		But even before the Gran Premio, competition had proved the brilliance of the Marianna--so nicknamed because Taglioni's 1955 design was approved for production during the Catholic celebration of St. Mary.
