SERIOUS OFFERS CONSIDERED
Please note: 24 new photos taken this morning, 10. 11. 2024, so that you really can see what you are buying!
I am reducing my collection at present, so here is your opportunity to acquire this totally original, unused, unregistered blue chip investment grade "New Old Stock" motorcycle.
I am serious about selling this, so if interested please phone me on in the old fashioned way. I will not consider offers from those who don't at least phone and have a chat with me, or come and see the bike, as I don't have time to answer anonymous messages. However I am open to serious offers from serious collectors.
I have, for the peace of mind of the buyer, had my friend and lifelong professional motorcycle engineer, Patrick, do a basic commission of the bike as we understand that, having never been fuelled since being supplied to its previous owner, by M&S motorcycles, Newcastle all those years ago, there will be some concern as to how it will run. So, it has had all new fuel lines, brake fluid, filters and oil, everything checked electrically etc and has been fired up and run for the first time since leaving the Benelli factory it sounds absolutely spot on. We unpacked the original Fiamm 40 year old battery, filled it with acid and charged it and it took and holds a full charge. I have a 3 minute video of the bike with the bodywork off firing up from cold and running perfectly on six cylinders. We have not replaced the original tyres so as to preserve its originality and we have not put fuel in the tank, just filling the carbs to start it. To see this video I need your number to send it by WhatsApp.
This motorcycle is frankly astonishing. I have owned it for a few years. It is a never registered, new old stock Benelli 900 SEi 6 cylinder flashbike. It is absolutely pristine, and is in fanatically detailed show condition throughout. It has just a few factory kms on the clock.
This is a genuine UK supplied bike, delivered brand new by the Authorised UK Benelli Dealership and installed into a gentleman's dining room, where it graced meal times until 2016 when it was returned to the original dealership to re-sell, and I bought it. Since then it has stood in perfect, dry conditions as part of my large collection. It is complete with its original V55/ 3 from the DVLA, and has never been registered, and not a whiff of fuel in the tank. The battery when I bought it had not been connected and was still wrapped in its original packaging!!!
It is totally beautiful - very different, and in my view more stylish than anything the Japanese produced, and being incredibly rare, it makes for a very sound investment indeed. If you want six cylinders, why buy one of the ubiquitous CBX1000s or Z1300s "recently imported from the USA", that are flooding the market, when you can acquire this piece of absolutely stunning Italian motorcycle art?
Unlike others 900 sei's you sometimes see for sale, this is not one of the black and white police bikes that have stood for ever in crates since the 90s and have recently been brought out into the daylight. These do crop up from time to time with low miles on them and are perfectly fine machines, but why not pay a little more for this: the rarest of all... supplied from the main dealer in 1985... a genuine UK supplied bike, in the correct colours. I don't think you will ever see another one of these.
If you are interested in purchasing, please ring me.
If you need the bike delivering, I know a very good company who will deliver this valuable machine to your door with extreme care. It will cost about £150 to most of England.
