Beschreibung
This motorcycle is to be auctioned at The Autumn Stafford Sale - The Classic Motorcycle Mechanics Show
Now Chinese owned, although still based in its home town of Pesaro, Benelli is best known for its Grand Prix successes of the 1950s/ 1960s when it secured two 250cc World Championships, and also for its outrageous six-cylinder road bikes of the 1970s. The Italian manufacturer has, of course, always produced less exotic fare such as the Pepe motor scooter offered here. Many Italian motorcycle manufacturers tried climbing aboard the scooter bandwagon in the years immediately following WW2, sometimes with peculiar motorcycle/ scooter hybrids, but none was a successful as either the Vespa or Lambretta. 'Quirky' does not do justice to the exuberant styling of this modern-day Benelli scooter, which comes with original Benelli paperwork from 1998 and Italian Ministry of Transport documentation. The machine has covered only 646 kilometres and is presented in age-related condition. Offered with an instruction book and old/ current IoM registration documents (missing second '0' in the frame number due to a clerical error). Two keys present.
