I've been trying to find info as well (not that I can afford one, just curiosity).

That thing is positively evil, and I would get that color in a heartbeat...

Cool looking bikes, but heavy, no? All of them are as heavy as my hulking 95 zx7. Gotta say the cafe racer model is pretty sick. Not too keen on the full fairing model though.

National Powersports, on Rte 106 in Pembroke, recently became a dealer for Bennelli.
The owner, Nate, will be one of the instructors at the upcoming LAPS trackday on August 29.

Someone around here has one - I saw the gold cafe racer version parked by the cambridge side galleria (a few weeks ago). To me, the air box thingys that sort of wrap around the forks are ugly. Tone those down and the bike is pretty sweet.

I believe a Benelli was featured in a Bike or PB shoot out a couple issues ago. If I remember, the bike broke down before they could test it.

Also, who names a bike "cafe racer." I saw that on the bike and couldn't believe it was the name for the line of bikes. Just in case you are too stupid to catch on to the style of bike.
