Aren't Benelli's now made in China?

Not that there is anything wrong with that.

I had some brit at the gas pump yesterday asking me all sorts of questions about my CityX, then the best part, he asked, "What does that cost, 30Gs?"

The bike above looks like that too.

That looks like field artillery, pull the string and it goes boom!

cool looking, parts are likely difficult to impossible to get.

Liked the "titanium" version my self.
the "Dealer" in the link above has no stock IN TERMS OF CYCLES ......

SEEMS ALL TO FAMILIAR ...

Right down the block from where José and I found the Fischer motorcycle warehouse was a warehouse that was formerly Beretta and is now Benelli. Located on the beautiful eastern shore of Maryland in scenic Snow Hill.

And you people complain about the Buell dealer support...good luck finding somebody to fix this thing.

I think I'll stick with my tubers for a little longer.
