Title: Someone please buy this Benelli Sei
Post by: Canuck750 on May 03, 2020, 06:58:54 PM
I have been looking for a nice one of these 750 Sei for years, I don't think I can get it shipped to Canada with the - closure of the border, on top of that the CDN dollar is in the tank and my investments have shrunk substantially. This looks like a decent bike, low mileage, and looks to be mostly complete.

Someone please buy it!

But it is so 70's Italian design! Think of those square edge FIAT's like the X-19, the Lancia's etc....

If you google the Morgan Trikes, the pre-2018 models used up the remnants of the Benelli gauge stock :grin:

Reminicant of a Moto Guzzi dash of the period.

I know.  But that doesn't mean it's right!

Agreed, the Sei dash is just wrong for the rest of the bike, speaking of ugly, the Japanese also got caught up in the square edge style

But I have to think the 1st gen Suzuki Rotary bike dash takes the cake

That appears to be the solution for Breva dash problems.   :grin: :grin:

That appears to be the dash of a Suzuki rotary.  If so, it would probably cost more than the Breva.

There is a video on YouTube with Benelli Sixes with different exhausts.  Simply heavenly.  I think it was titled to the effect of, "best sounding motorcycle".

I've been told that by ending the auction with a description like broken or whatever excuse usually means the seller sold it privately out from under ebay so he doesn't have to pay the fees.
