Benelli

After posting photos of the Motobi 650 a few weeks ago I thought this would tie in nicely with that post. I think is a 1975 advert.


Adverts


Thought I'd let you see this advert I came across, as its just right for this season.
Its amazing what some people come up with just to let us ride our bikes all year round.... this one didn't seem to catch on.
Haven;t found any other details on it, as yet!

Friday Bike

A friend just sent me a link to this bike which is on ebay just now.
Its a 76 Kawasaki KZ900 fitted with a Tracy Body kit. I like the way its been painted using Z1B colours.
I think I've said else where in the past I wouldn't mind one of these bodies for one of my Zeds, may be some day......

Just a Photo



One for you to think about....

Had a look on the BSA Regal site for info on the project...

BSA TEMPEST 2003
Twin 1,000cc 85 BHP
Top Speed: 120 MPH
An initial concept prototype, built in Southampton, using the British-designed and built 1000cc Rhind-Tutt Wasp engine. BSA tested the market with this traditionally styled, recognisably British motorcycle placing a strong emphasis on handling and usability. Although was well received by most reviewers, its true test came when the lack of firm orders resulted in the Tempest not going into production.

Friday Bike

Last month I hitched a run south with my mate Vic, he was doing a bit of bike collecting. We stopped off at his friends place, which is a sort of Mecca for Benelli multi's. Amongst them was a very nice 1970 Motobi 650 Tornado, a bike I don't think I'd seen in the metal before. Heres a few photos of it.
