A Little Benelli History
Pardon my ignorance but I've lost track of who owns who in Italy these
days. Last time I looked Benelli was part of the De Tomaso empire. Who
owns them now? Are they independent ? Are they still part of Guzzi ?
Benelli are now owned by Italian businessman, Andrea Merloni, whose
family own Indesit, makers of fridges etc. www.strega.freeserve.co.uk
I forgot to mention that Franco Lambertini, designer of the 3 1/2 , has
left Piaggio and moved to Franco Morini Motori as head technician. Cagiva
no longer own the rights to use the Morini name, not that they ever intended
to anyway , presumably Lambertini still has the designs for the "new" Morini
750cc engine he designed around the time of the Cagiva take over. A new
large capacity Morini may be in the pipeline, but not for a few more years
yet. -- Steve -- www.478cc.cwc.net

Benelli 125 Sport
I own a red Benelli 125 Sport two-stroke motorcycle. I understand
that it was imported in 2000 and the year of manufacture has been listed
in the UK as 1982. It has only done 8920 (genuine) km.
I have all MoT certificates (from 2000) inc current one and also the
service books which have detailed drawings for servicing and electrical
systems diagrams.
It is in excellent condition, the engine is fine, runs perfect and the
chrome exhausts have hardly any marks on them - they polish up lovely!
I am looking to sell and am open to genuine offers.

I do not have a picture at this time I'm also in need of a flywheel
for the above mentioned bike. I discovered mine is cracked around the center
of the hub. what type of puller do you recommend to remove the flywheel?
thanks, Daniel
pennsylvania
Dansi is the name on the flywheel. It is approx. 4 1/2 inches in diameter
and 1 inch in thickness. I have several types of conventional pullers
but I think that they would destroy it during removal. Although at
this point it doesnt matter because its cracked, so I,ll need to
locate another at some point in time. Anything that you may run across
would GREATLY be appreciated.
THANK YOU DANIEL
The number on the flywheel is as follows, ASL201B below this number
is the manufacture date of 7 65. Hopes this is more helpful
to you than my previous imformation.
The type of flywheel puller required is similar
to that pictured here,
Daniel. I'll try to track down a source for the correct tool.

You want part I have them! I have 1.5 1972 650-S Tornado's, both engines
are fine one was in a fire and the front is missing, and the other is fully
complete. What I don't have are items such as rubbers :), seats,
back tail light sections and silencers. I do have 4 people interested in
some of the parts but no money yet. One engine is going to be broken
down and the other is going to stay as is for now. So if your in need of
some thing email me, if I don't have I just may be able too find it for
you. And if you are in need of silencers for the 650 or a total complete
exhaust system to that 750 sei. I have one setting around and if

Hi everyone-- I have a 1978 Benelli sei 750 and i am having a Charging
problem. Has anyone used a universal rectifier/voltage regulator {Voltpak
is not making them for the benelli any longer}. Has any one used one from
RICKS MOTORSPORT ELECTRICS and if so which one was used} Any other source
would be appriciated or stock parts are ok also. Is there a trouble shooting
spec sheet for the alternator /generator,rectifier ,voltage regulator.
When i start mine the charge light goes out at about 1200rpm's and
the lights get a little brighter when reved but it only charges from 10.5
volts at idle to about 12.5 when a meter is used accross the battery terminals.
The battery goes right down as this sis not enough to keep the battery
charged. Please e-mail me back at juwa1 at aol

To convert from the ridiculous duplex drive chain fitted originally
to the Benelli 900sei, you need the 16 tooth front sprocket from a Yamaha
DT250MX (569-16) and the rear sprocket from the same Yamaha DT250MX (855-47)
if you want the 47 toothsprocket, or the rear sprocket from the XJ600 Diversion
(855-48) if you want the 48 tooth sprocket.
These sprockets require a 520 pitch chain, I'm unsure of the number
of links but if you buy a 130 link chain it's not much more expensive than
the shorter ones and easy to cut to size.
In order to fit the locking plate on the front sprocket drive shaft,
you have to make 3 spacer tubes, one large to fit the shaft and two small
ones to fit the two bolts.

some refacing after spending one year of its life in a field. We decided
to restore the old girl. The machine starts immediately, contains all original
parts, nothing lost, with only 1200 original miles. Basically I am going
to restore it to a new or better appearance. I wish to re-kindle some riding
interest beyond pedaling for my father and I know this to be the ticket!
Can you tell me roughly what its worth, and furnish me with links for
replacing stickers and actual photos of machine as new. Also any advice
or recommendations about having chrome work for the tank done. i.e....who
to look acquire for this job.
I want this machine to stay in our family for years; any advice on preservation
after its done would be fantastic too.

What do I have?
I just picked up a very unique looking Benelli,
at a local salvage yard, for $50. They had just acquired it about a month
ago or so. Engine number is NL*4879*. Have not been able to locate the
frame number yet. Looking at photos of bikes that I found on 'Benelli
Club Nederland' site, I compared it to a 1958 125cc 4T. (The headlight
bracket, rear fender, and the front down-tube part of the frame that connects
to the engine, and the engine configurations all match). The tank on the
bike, however, looks larger, and the paint scheme looks like that of a
'68 Sprite/'67 Riverside/'65-'67 MotoBi Imperiale. Are the tanks on these
motorcycles interchangeable, or could a past owner just painted the original
tank to match the later models? Mine also has the seat strap that the rear
passenger would hang onto while riding; did not notice this on the 4T.
The headlight, hanging by the wires down to the front axle, looks like
it does not have any switches, but does have a square, clouded-over instrument
gauge on it. Is this a speedo or volt-meter?
Restored, or in it's present 'a truck must have run over it' condition,
what could this be worth?
I found this bike at Paul's M/C Salvage in Hiram ,
Ga., just in case the previous owner is out there.

For sale. My 1971 125cc Sport Special was imported from Bari
Italy. This bike was given to me by my uncle after sitting under
a sheet of plastic for 15 years. The motor was re-build but like
I said, it sat for 15 years untouched. There is a small leak coming
from the center gasket but nothing to worry about, all other gaskets have
been replaced recently. The bike itself has been completely restored
from the ground up including re-chroming of parts.

I own a '69 FULL RACE Barracuda. This bike was used for hill climbing
in the early '70s claiming several titles. It's been handed down to me
by family and friends, and now I'm contemplating a restoration to its modified
state. What I'm looking for is the shop manual, {I have the original parts
and price manuals} motor gaskets, a rebuild kit for the carburetor or complete
carburetor.
From what I understand the motor was built by a shop in Daytona, the
red line on the tach is at 13,000 RPM. The swing arm is still stock, this
being run before the thought of extending swing arms.
Before being stored away 15 years ago it ran very strong and very loud
with open header and megaphone.
Any information on this motor and parts availability will be greatly
appreciated!

I just found your site after numerous searches for Benellis in the past.
I have a 1970 Dynamo Trail, or what I have been told is a Dynamo Trail
with only 132.5 original miles on it. It is almost complete with only the
tools, manual and original air filter missing. The tires are
in like new condition, the exhaust pipe hasn't blued from heat, the gas
line hasn't discolored from fuel flowing through it, and the seat is in
very good condition without any tears or rips, just some slight scuff marks.
Sadly the gas tank needs to be cleaned of the internal rust and chemically
lined, the headlight housing to be rechromed, and the front forks scratched.
But the bike is in remarkable condition after 28 years.
I include a picture for you to post since this may be one of very few
such bikes left in this condition. I am also interested in
selling this bike, since I am not an avid collector and enjoy riding more
than polishing.

1968 Montgomery Ward Riverside 250cc
I had the above motorcycle (Benelli import) back in 1980 when I was
15 in San Diego, CA..The bike was almost mint (original tires, paint, onboard
tool kit & low mileage...around 200-300). I would sneak the bike
out at night ( no license, registration, insurance or helmet) & once
I got it started it was a running machine even though the gear shift was
on the wrong side. But it was a bear to start, probably tight from
being new, & more times than not I would abandon the kick start to
do a rolling jump start (Hey I was only 15!).I know I have at least one
picture of the Riverside, but lost its location when I left San Diego at
16.

Hi everyone,
I've just started an email list for the Benelli and MotoBi marques.
After a little testing and fine tuning this morning the list seems to be
up an running OK, so I'm letting everyone know that it is available.
To subscribe you'll send your message to:
majordomo at list.sirius.com
The list has both individual and digest (accumulation of messages issued
as one message) modes, so the body of the message will read either:
subscribe benelli-motobi youremailaddresshere
or
subscribe benelli-motobi-digest youremailaddresshere
depending on which version you want.
As with my other 6 lists, I'll be keeping the new list closed to non-member
posts which has proven to be effective in keeping the spammers out.
I'll be letting Carl Paukstis know about the list so he can include it
in the November issue of the mailing list roundup.

Hello Ron,
I paid $300 for my 5 speed. It wasn't complete or real nice, but did
come with a NOS fuel tank and a spare 4 speed engine.
I have a small list of MotoBi/Benelli owners that exchange email in
an informal list - they post something to me (once and awhile) and I send
it back out to everyone else. There are several very knowledgeable people
on the list (including Peter Oort who runs the Dutch MotoBi Amici web site).
If you or anyone else wants to have your name added to that just drop me
a line. I think I can assure you your mailbox won't be overflowing if you
do!
