Legend Cook Neilson was reunited recently, with the bike he rode when he won the Daytona Superbike race in 1977.
The reunion took place at the Barber Vintage Museum in the US last Saturday, 20th October.
After an emotional speech during the gala dinner, Cook received a big surprise at the museum, pulling the cover off of the “Deja Blue”: a piece-for-piece replica of Cook’s 1977 Daytona Superbike race winning Ducati 750 SS “old blue”.

Cook said of the event: “The Barber Museum is motorcycling’s grandest cathedral.
For Phil and Ducati and me to be represented here is the greatest honor we could imagine.
‘Deja Blue’ is a masterpiece which perfectly captures not just the look of Old Blue, but its heart, sound and soul.
This has been a very emotional weekend for Phil and me and all our friends.
The people who knew about ‘Deja Blue’ hoped when it was done that it would be worthy of George Barber and the Barber Museum.
