Beautiful 250 cc Spanish off-road bike made in 1972 (the replica) based in the one that Mick Andrews rode and helped to develop in the 70's when he joined OSSA. Riding for OSSA, Andrews won three times the Scottish champ (70, 71 and 72) and two times the European champ. After 1972 he left the Spanish brand and signed for Yamaha.
Ossa is a Spanish motorcycle manufacturer which was active from 1924 to 1982 and reborn in 2010. Founded by Manuel Giró, an industrialist from Barcelona, Ossa was best known for lightweight, two-stroke engine bikes used in observed trials, motocross and enduro.[1] The company was known originally as Orpheo Sincronic Sociedad Anónima (O.S.S.A.) and was later renamed Maquinaria Cinematográfica, S.A.. In 2010, the Ossa brand was reborn when the trademark was purchased and a new company began producing motorcycles.
