Benelli 500 Quattro project
« on: January 01, 2021, 06:29:11 PM »
I would like t get a hold of one of these drum brake Benelli 500's, this one may be a little overpriced but they are rare on the ground. Same frame as the 6 cylinder Sei and shares side panels, gas tank, fenders etc.... I hope it gets saved, too far away from me.

Yep that's the one to have! same front brake used on the Benelli 650S, built by Grimeca for Benelli.

So much of it is missing that it might be easier and cheaper to just build a "tribute" to this:

 I saw one of the 250 fours at Vintage Days many years ago. They are so tiny.
