Paton is an Italian maker from Milan, founded in 1958 by Giuseppe Pattoni, who had worked at Mondial. It built racing bikes for the 125 to 500 cc classes in the 1960s and 1970s and later the V-twin and V4 racers of the 1980s and 1990s. The brand returned for road use in the 2010s with the S1 and S1R, including a 60th Anniversary edition.
