Simon rides a Benelli Tornado to the track and back
day of judgment.For 40 miles the sardine cans are bumper to bumper, but there was some relief. The Tornado had a new Benelli Sport end can fitted, a beautiful piece of kit made of titanium, and, if nothing else, it has made the already seductive

They might be giants: Triumph Tiger & Benelli Tre K
By Mark Forsyth on 29/07/2010 09:54:59
It’s a bit like meeting a TV star for the first time, they’re never quite as big as they appear on screen. Say hello to the Triumph Tiger and Benelli Tre K. They’re both big, but which is the best?
Let’s face it, these two very similar bikes are a choice of the head, not the heart. They’ll let you cruise in wind-blast free comfort for tankfull after tankfull. They’ll commute and scratch, and your wrists and neck won’t get the same battering they’d get from an arse-up, head-...

By Roland Brown on 04/05/2010 13:33:48

Benelli's 250cc single
By Ben Cope on 08/11/2012 13:38:06
Should be cheap, at least.
THIS time a year ago, Benelli showed a rather attractive 250cc supermoto called the Motard 250. OK, so it was only a 25bhp single, but even so it looked appealing.Since then, we've heard little of that bike, but now Benelli has transplanted the same

Benelli 600 launched (again)
By Visordown News on 08/11/2012 13:41:54
No, not the hub-centre-steered supersports they promised a few years ago
TODAY sees the release of pictures of Benelli's new BN600 – an inline-four-cylinder naked due for its unveiling at next week's Milan show. But it seems somewhat familiar.That familiarity is probably thanks to the fact it's virtually identical

By Jon Urry on 08/12/2003 15:14:26
When it comes to style few can match the Italians. But is Ducati's 999, Benelli's Tornado and Aprilia's RSV-R's beauty only skin deep?
