1965 Montesa: Production Racer? Who needs one?

Montesa - 1st "non-works" finisher, Daytona USGP

In a field of over 60 entries, including 10 makes, Montesa beat all production racers & all modifieds. In fact only genuine factory works machines with factory works riders finished ahead of Montesa.

1. Phil Read - Yamaha RD56
2. Mike Duff - Yamaha RD56
3. Silvio Grassetti - Morini
4. Frank Perris - Suzuki 4
5. Jose Busquets - Montesa
6. John Buckner - Yamaha TD1
7. Bo Gehring - Bultaco TSS
8. George Murphy - Ducati
9. Ken King - Honda



AAMRR - Sebring

Montesa again beat all comers, finishing 2nd and 5th. Only the "works" Morini was capable of finishing ahead of Montesa. The same Montesa ran both races (with complete reliability) and also the A.M.A. Daytona (ran out of gas).....Reliability!
