Villa began racing at 13, on a 175cc Moto Morini.

In the early 1970s, Harley-Davidson bought the ailing Aermacchi factory near Milan, with the aim of selling a range of bikes from 125cc machines to complement the traditional big V-twins built in the USA.
First, they marketed Aermacchi's horizontal single cylinder four-strokes, and then began to develop their own two-strokes.
The Aermacchi / Harley-Davidson factory hired Walter Villa for their racing effort in the Grand Prix motorcycle racing circuit after the death of Renzo Pasolini at Monza in May 1973.
During the winter of 1973 -1974, the factory under the direction of Dr. Sandro Colombo, made huge progress in developing their machines in order to compete with Yamaha.
This progress allowed Villa to take victory in the 1974 championship, with Villa winning the first 250 cc championship race of the year - in Italy by 45 seconds.
He went on to win the 1975 and 1976 250cc world championship together with the 350cc title in 1976.
In addition to the four World titles, he won eight Italian Championships.
After he retired at the end of the 1980 season, Villa became a key player in the grand prix historic motorsport circuit, riding in high speed demonstrations in addition to becoming his country's top trainer.
He died of a heart attack, aged 58, on 18 June 2002.
