Beschreibung
1981 Benelli 900 Sei Registration no. SVR 433W Frame no. BO*10825* Engine no. BO*10823* Despite a racing heritage second to none, Benelli was in trouble by the late 1960s and fell into the clutches of Argentine industrialist Alejandro De Tomaso in 1971. Under De Tomaso's stewardship the revitalised company was soon grabbing the headlines with a host of new models, none more startling than the 750cc Sei (Six) of 1972, the world's first production six-cylinder motorcycle. The fact that Benelli was able to produce the design so quickly despite lacking previous experience of this type of engine was easily explained: it looked like a Honda CB500 'four' with two extra cylinders, which in effect was just what it was. Even the bore and stroke dimensions were identical to those of the Japanese unit. Production proper began in 1974 but the Benelli was soon overshadowed by Honda's own CBX1000 'six', forcing the Italian company to respond with the 900 Sei in 1980. Purchased by the current vendor in September 2021, the Benelli was first imported into the UK in 2014 and currently displays 3,107km to the odometer. Documentation consists of a Benelli Owners Club dating certificate, V5C, expired MoT (most recent 2021) and photocopy manuals. Offered with key Footnotes: All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.
