tank painted...

These bikes demaned fun.

Poor thing.

Tank and Seat

The original tank was far to gone to save, it basically melted under the welding gun.
I made this tank and seat out of sheet metal, it currently is primed and waiting to
be painted silver.

Coming 2gether

Front end and frame redone.
Frame sandblasted, welded new seat sub-frame and fairing mount.
Frame and fork painted with engine enamel paint and clear coat.
Front fender body work done to rid all the rust pitting and painted silver with clear coat.
New front end, tommaselli matador replica levers, Nos Magura natural rubber grips,
pit bike clip-ons, and vintage tommaselli racing throttle.
Most hardware, bolts, etc. replaced with hex key bolts (easy to carry set of hex
keys then a ton wrenches on a ride).

The Begining

Just picked up a really sad Benelli, everything is wrong with it but the frame is solid.
A kid put an axe thru the rusty tank, all the fun hard to find parts are missing, and the engine
is rusted shut: no movement.
