Barn Find Benelli 750 SEI 6 cylinder!! That is a sentence you don't get to say often. Like all of the bikes I find this one came from Facebook Marketplace and had JUST been listed when I saw it. The ad had a single photo similar to the thumbnail in this video and I knew something was off as the engine width wasn't like a normal 4 cylinder. I contacted the seller right then and quickly hit the road before the next guy. Needless to say it was an awesome score!
Now I have never owned a Benelli and honestly know hardly anything about them but feel very confident I can make this icon live another day. Since it won't be a project I get to for a while I can use that time for research and parts sourcing which is ok by me. Just imagine how cool this bike would be as a period road racer with a 6 into 1, full fairing, and custom race inspired pieces throughout!
I know many of you will have an issue with my statement of "it's not worth restoring" but hear me out. It would take a minimum of $20k in parts and labor to do this to a concourse level and probably 2 years or more with parts rarity. When done it could bring a max of $40k which leaves $20k profit spread over 2 plus years. Thats $10k per year and not a livable income in my opinion. I do not see most bikes as an investment but rather the thing that fuel my passion in life. I appreciate restored bikes but feel this is not the right bike for that. As my joy comes from reviving and riding these old machines not seeing them sit hidden away in private collections never to be ridden.
