Update Benelli 250 2c first serie 1972

After riding the bike in caferacer style
for a couple of months

I changed it in the Original style
This is better for the engine
because you dont have to go faster and faster
Its better to keep this machine in the Original way it is
I think.......

Moto Guzzi V50 III

This is a wonderful bike to drive.
First I wanted to change it in a scrambler....
than to a caferacer.....
 
and now I think: let it original
 
 
Great sound by the way
 
 


Mine Triumph T140 had Triumph silencers and not from BSA

 
Ok
a lot of people  think that the silencers are BSA ones,
but that isn't so
Triumph had them aswell but they are longer,
so the kickstart won't hit the exchaust
 
So if you looking foor this kind of silincers on you're Triumph....
 
they excist

Update 23-4-2013 Benelli 250 2c first serie 1972

I met Sytze van den Berg from Holland and he was one of the mechanics of Rob Bron.
Now Rob Bron was a very good racer in the 70-80's
He drove in the same races as Agostini, Sheene and Turner
He also drove a topspeed of 342 km/u - 212.50 m/h on the 200 miles of  Daytona in 1978.
Now you know where I'm talking about.
Now Sytze is very into Benelli 2 stroke.
So I met him last week and he was very pleased to see me !!!!!
Why?

Now first I asked him te look at mine engine if I need some new bits and pieces
Then he told me that it was one of the first series of the 250 2c.
Even the crankshaft was from the first serie he told me.
(i didn't know there was a different one)
The pistons had grooves (see photo)
And even the manifold (intake befor the carbs)where the early ones
He looked at the complete bike with the different footrests (see photo)
and the early framenumber (just 4 figures)
Aprilia taillight
Borrani rims (record)
Inox mudgards
Grimeca double leading brake shoe (L+R)
Marzocchi front
Tomaselli handlebar and so on....
Than He told me I got a very rare nearly original bike
Just the silentium silincers are from a later model but they are nearly brand new
So, not only I met somebody who knows where he's talking about, even met a nice person who was very pleased he saw all the beautiful original early stuff of the 250 2c
 
Now a few photo's of the Benelli 250 2c
