SUMMARY

DESCRIPTION

Revitalised following its take-over by Alejandro de Tomaso, Benelli launched a range of new four and six-cylinder sports bikes in the 1970s
Smallest of the range was the 254 (actually 231cc) quarter-litre roadster, its name deriving from '250cc/four-cylinder'
The smallest production four-cylinder motorcycle at the time, it was also one of the most expensive, but it did include cast alloy wheels, Brembo disc brakes, and an electric starter
Stunningly styled and built like a Swiss watch, the 28bhp, high-revving lightweight was capable of over 90mph
This example is presented in complete condition but will need recommissioning or restoring before use
One previous owner and current owner since 2003
Showing just over 4,000 recorded km
Complete with original owners handbook, service manual and some old MOTs
Also supplied with numerous spares as pictured including panels and spare wheels
UK-registered on a current V5C
Being offered with No Reserve
