Benelli COBRA tech info
Benelli COBRA description
This motorcycle is a Benelli 125 2-stroke and was originally sold through Montgomery Wards as the Wards Riverside. Very light weight and a nimble handler. 4-speed rocker shift on the right side, rear brake is the left foot with the normal left hand clutch and right hand throttle. Highly original red and silver metallic paint, though faded, and original exhaust with no holes. Recovered seat in correct style. Turn signals are aftermarket since originally only a headlight and tail light were used. Made in Italy by one of the oldest makers of motorcycles now better known for their firearms. Super easy to start and maintain. One mechanical issue: the rocker shifter must be nudged back to the neutral position after each shift. This is fairly easy to adjust to. New rims, spokes, and tires and ready for a nice, slow road. The speedometer recently went on strike, but the miles are believed to be correct based on overall condition.
Purchased virtually rust-free in Arizona a few years ago as a companion to our larger Benelli / Motobi 250. We do not ride it enough, and want it to go to someone who will use it regularly. Buyer must arrange for shipping. Will fit in a minivan. |

Benelli explores Europe
Sat, 14 May 2016The Chinese owners of the Italian brand Benelli are targeting the European market. The company is preparing to release two new motorcycles, a 750cc and a 900cc naked. The yellow naked, very similar to the Ducati Monster, is equipped with a 750cc parallel twin, an imposing inverted telescopic fork and a dual disc front brake with radial calipers.
Benelli introduced a new tourer
Tue, 06 Mar 2018The bike is equipped with an in-line "two", but the power is unlikely to impress. Qianjiang, which owns the Benelli brand, has introduced a new 302 Tourer to the Chinese market with a nice design, but not the most advanced stuffing. The motorcycle has a 300cc engine from a naked BN302, but in a slightly derated format - it develops 34 hp and 27 Nm (naked has 37 “horses” and 26 Nm).
2011 Benelli TNT R160

Benelli claims 155.6 hp at 10,200 rpm and 88.5 ft-lb.
