Named for Marco Lucchinelli's 1986 Battle of the Twins win at Laguna Seca, this was the follow-up limited run to the Montjuich. It used the same engine layout with different cylinder heads, a quieter exhaust, Paso-derived three-spoke wheels and discs, and a steel fuel tank as cost savings. Some were single-seat and some two-seat; it was fast, loud and is now highly collectible.
