Benelli beauty booked-in!

Published: 30th November 2007

SURPRISE off-road exhibit at the NEC Motorcycle Show, when the doors were thrown open last Thursday, was this beautiful Benelli BX505 enduro model that is due to go on sale next March.

And an even bigger surprise is the news that its MX449 stablemate could well be actually available in the shops as early as December - and T+MX is already booked-in for the first test ride!
Benelli is a well-known Italian marque, famous for its GP road-racing heritage, that has struggled with the usual money troubles in recent years but which is now undergoing a major and exciting revolution un-der Chinese ownership.

Its flagship models are futuristically styled three-cylinder road-going motorcycles but Benelli did quietly debut its MX449 at European shows last year. It looked good but wasn’t really taken seriously, being seen as the result of a well-executed de-sign exercise. But with the recent announce-ment of imminent production, interest in the striking green newcomers is now set to boom.

Full technical details are not known but what we do know is impressive. Heart of the BX505 (and the MX449) is a single cylinder DOHC four-stroke motor with titatanium valves that sports EFI, electric start, a six-speed cassette-type gearbox and a twin-exhaust system.

The motor is slotted into a good-looking aluminium chassis that features extruded sections welded to square-section tubing coupled to a tough-looking aluminium swinging arm connected to a link-type rear suspension system. A collection of quality ancillaries, a nine-litre fuel tank plus that striking green bodywork complete the package.

Such was the sheer size of the Benelli range on display at the NEC - a surprise in itself to many early show-goers - the BX505 - actual capacity of the engine is 505cc - was tucked-away right up against a wall, which was a real shame as the model deserved a much more prominent setting.
T+MX looks forward to getting the exciting new Benelli models cracked into life just as soon as they become available...

Мотоцикл такого класса впервые встречается в модельном ряду компании, и выделяется среди конкурентов, прежде всего, дизайном. Сразу обращают на себя внимание диагональная рама и задний маятник внушительного размера. Пластиковые обтекатели окрашенные в зеленый и черный цвет прекрасно сочетаются с позолоченной передней вилкой. Все это дополняется светодиодным стоп-сигналом и двумя глушителями под "хвостом".

Супермото Benelli BX570 оснащен одноцилиндровым четырехтактным мотором жидкостного охлаждения рабочим объемом 569 куб.см. Инжекторный двигатель выдает мощность 65 лошадиных сил. Так же в арсенале модели 6-ступенчатая коробка передач, перевернутая вилка Sachs диаметром 50 мм, полностью регулируемый задний амортизатор.

На серьезный тормозной потенциал новинки указывает наличие переднего тормозного диска диаметром 320 мм с четырехпоршневым суппортом Brembo. По предварительным данным цена Benelli BX570 в Европе составит приблизительно 9000 евро.

Benelli’s first ever motocross and enduro bikes are now production ready, as these pictures show.

The BX449 Cross was revealed at the Cologne show in 2006 in prototype form, and in the year since the bike has moved from a clay model to a tested and completed machine ready to go into amateur-level motocross racing.

The bike is all Benelli’s design – the 450 four-stroke single is all new and features a clever one-piece crankcase design, which allows for the crank and gearbox to be slotted in from the side.

The frame is an aluminium beam design, but it has a removable top engine mount made from carbon fibre. Benelli will offer alternative mounts of varying rigidity to allow riders to tune chassis flex and feel.

The BX505 is an enduro version of the BX449 with a 56cc larger engine, and a revised chassis and setup designed for the different demands of enduro riding and racing. It also comes with lights and a small number plate holder to make it fully enduro legal.

Scooters - Benelli QuattroNove X (49X)

It would appear that Benelli have returned to the Australian scooter scene with the intent of selling copious amounts of scooters. Now we see the introduction later this month of the 49X or as the Italians would have it the QuattroNove X. Available in two formats with a balloon 10 inch tyre or in the standard 12 inch configuration the 49X strikes a different pose to most. With its open style handlebars and somewhat different styling the 49X was first seen on the stands in Milan as a concept scooter yet with the resurgence of Benelli we see the model hit production in such a short time frame. Inspired somewhat by the hot 50cc 2 stroke market in Europe the 49X comes standard with a wrap around power pipe and a wavey disc rotor on the front. RRP will be set at $2590 + ORC Stay Tuned.....

Мотоцикл, признанный в 2007-м году Европейским институтом дизайна самым красивым среди прототипов, идет на конвейер. Для Benelli мотоцикл так же нехарактерен, как и первые в его истории эндуро.
Вместо традиционного 3-цилиндрового рядника здесь установлен параллельный твин объемом 756 см3. Мотор используется как несущий элемент в раме, хитрая конструкция маятника прячет где-то в глубине моноамортизатор. Мотоцикл комплектуется 50-мм перевернутой вилкой, парой 320-мм тормозных дисков с 4-поршневыми радиальными суппортами.

Bike tests

13 February 2007 09:38

With millions of pounds of Chinese investment the Italian manufacturer Benelli is back on the world stage.
MCN was invited to the factory in Pesaro to see the new Due 756, first revealed at the Cologne Motorcycle Show in October. 
We got a UK exclusive ride in the saddle of the Due 756 with the full story in next week’s MCN, available from Wednesday, February 14, 2007.
Tom Rayner from MCN was also given a behind the scenes factory tour.

 

Velvet 125/150/250

Benelli позиционирует Velvet 250 как спортивный скутер. Как и полагается истинному «итальянцу», он построен на основе пространственной стальной рамы типа «птичья клетка». Комплектуется вилкой с диаметром перьев 28 мм и парой амортизаторов. Тормозные диски идентичные на обоих колесах, по 220 мм. О мощности двигателя итальянцы скромно умалчивают. Кроме 250-ки, существует также 150 см3 и 125 см3 версии.
