The Cagiva Elephant was introduced in the early 1980s as an enduro motorcycle.. The Cagiva Elephant competed against both German and Japanese motorcycles in the prestigious 1987 Paris-Dakar 'off-road' rally. The bike was characterized by its large fairing which covered the steel tube and light alloy trellis frame. The aircooled twin-cylinder engine provided 80 HP at 8500 rpm and allowed the Italian bike to reach a maximum off-road speed of 185 km / h. The design reflected a "typical" Saharan configuration, with protective fairing, Ohlins off-road shocks and low front fender.
