Benelli ?

Just spotted this, which is new to me:

Like a kind of cheap and cheerful version of Ducati's Scrambler perhaps? Might be the kind of thing that would appeal to some on this forum ?

Made in China...interesting to see how the Chinese are getting bigger and better.

Today, the company is fully owned by Qianjiang Group, and is one of 10 branches of Qianjiang. Benelli is purely designed and manufactured in China since 2005.

It's been out for a couple of years as 17" wheels but the trail was added later with the 19" front.
I've sat on one a couple of times at a dealers as I liked the scrambler/vanvan style but the weight really put me off so didn't bother test riding it.
They also do a custom which again I liked the look of but the unusual footrest position didn't appeal.

Love the Lion model sitting on the front of the front fender ! I wonder what other manufacturers would put there if this catches on.... ?!
