A recent re-entrant into the superbike market with its Tornado-derived family of triples, Benelli is best known for its Grand Prix successes in the 1960s when it secured two 250cc World Championships, and for its outrageous six-cylinder road bikes of the 1970s. The Italian manufacturer has, of course, always produced less exotic fare such as that offered here. Revitalised after its take-over in 1971 by Argentine industrialist Alejandro de Tomaso, Benelli launched a plethora of new models in the 1970s, the off-road styled 50cc Cross among them. This rare machine has been the subject of a 'no expense spared' full restoration, which was only completed in 2018. Last run in June 2019, it is described by the vendor as in excellent condition throughout and running superbly. Accompanying documentation consists of a NOVA confirmation letter and original Italian registration paperwork.
