Old mans Benelli Tornado - SV650.org

30-08-06, 10:06 PM

Met up with my old man and one of his friends tonight. Took a few pictures.

He let me have a ride, but i've bottled it. It was getting dark, loads of bikes around, not worth it, he'd cry if i dropped it

Another time though

Ohh I know what it is, there are no Vauxhalls in the frame!!!

Very very nice - although who would choose yellow over that delicious silver/green scheme?!

The tank always looks really viscious on those things.

My thoughts exactly

The green/silver is the nicest IMHO. Hope that one's yer dad's

Yeah his is the green and silver one.

The yellow one is newer, just before Benelli went bust (they went bust as they put everything into WSB). The companys been re-bought again though.

YEllow one is an RS model, note the front brakes and suspension is much thicker.

Everythings matched on the bike, key forb, footrests, hangers, mirrors, indicators etc etc, all a triangular shape and keeps in theme. He's just having new exhaust hangers made up getting rid of the footpegs for the Benelli owners. Should be done in a few days, will get more snaps.
