This motorcycle in Italy has a very low price, around 3500 euros. I learned a lot about the quality of the components and there seems to be no compromise. It is true, it is produced in China, but all the motorcycles produced return to Italy for quality check. I think I will buy it in September, for me it is certainly the ideal way to drive in and around Rome with fun ...and without selling a kidney ;-) I recommend it.
A well done review. Enjoyed.
So many great names have fallen by the wayside I guess its good to see a few them still limping along!
it's constant change!
They’re doing proper offroad bikes now too. Glad to see a lsot brand coming back
We'll try to review the bigger model, before too long
I can see the appeal of this, a stylish little package without the crazy power everything’s got these days!
Exactly!
Great location and looks like a good looking and nimble machine. Nice job!
Thanks! Paros is great, and this Benelli is a little gem.
It’s a single-cylinder but water-cooled - pretty sophisticated set up!
yeah, that was a surprise!
Great work!!!! Thank you!!!!
It was fun!
Neat looking bike.
it's a lovely colour, in real life
Great filming!
Great team! :)
Benelli was magical in its day. Sad to see it reduce to little tourist bikes on Greek islands.
we all live and learn, I guess!
Your right about those scooters - death traps!
There's the fun of two-wheeling I suppose, but the Benelli is so much better
i love it big time... Nice!!!
Good stuff - we enjoyed it too!
Those colours are cool, are there any others?
Take a look around their website as each model year brings new things!
I was looking for a 250cc bike that isn’t just another Japanese filler so this one really excites me. What’s the build quality like?
It looks good...of course, only time will tell

@@superfonic we agree! It's a true bargain and a nice bike
I own a benelli trk 251. With leoncino they share the same engine and a lot other parts. They are value for money motorcycle s in this category!
I read up about this and they do a 500c too. That must be a twin?
not sure of that, but we'll be trying one out before too long and report on it
I’ve been riding a Suzuki VanVan for a while and would like something with a bit more style. Do you know if they’re available in the UK?
The VanVan is great! Yes, apparently Benelli are available in the UK - www.benelli.co.uk/
What about the second passenger??
it's not a bike you'd go touring the world on, but as a commuter, it's perfectly comfortable!
It reminds me of Indian who put a chieftains head on the front fender too. Imitation and flattery?
yeah, same idea - well spotted!
Is this bike suitable for a 6'2" rider?
Which island is that?
Paros, in Greece
That wiggle in the corners comes from a wheelbase that’s too short. The bike’s a city bike.
you're probably right there, though it's also to do with the suspension set-up
I guess they’re trying to cover their Chinese tracks by plastering the name all over it!
We're not sure they're ashamed of being Chinese, they're just trying to bring to mind the Italian heritage of the bike.
