Benelli Tornado - First Impressions.
Well picked her up about 2 hours ago. First impressions are that between Hebden Bridge and Rochdale that it's ****ing down and foggy, so just had a fairly steady trundle home. What a noise though.

Re: Benelli Tornado - First Impressions
There was only a little in a couple of places.
To be fair, I've heard a few times that the 955 Sprint was bettter built than the 1050. I liked the bike, but it's been so tempremental at times, I'm not that sorry to see it go. Will have to wait and see how this one goes with regards to reliability, coz let's face it, the reputation in that respect isn't great.

Re: Benelli Tornado - First Impressions
Hmmmmmm lovely looking bike, I've not ridden a faired version but if it's anything like the TNT, it'll be a fun ride, hope you enjoy it and have many good miles.
Cheers Mark.
