Alain Renouf : A Norton Racer



Alain Renouf (August 31st 1949, Nice - March 17th 1974, Toulon) was a french motorcycle racer, a "course de côte" specialist on Norton.
Winner of the first "Tour de France Moto" on Kawasaki 900 Z1 in 1973.
2nd on the 1973 Bol d'Or with René Guili on a Z1 Kawasaki Prepared by King's Motorcycle.
I never met this guy but he was for sure a Norton lover and a great racer
Just wanted to say "good job man..." even if he left us in 1974
