I really do, its quite sad isn't it Ahh well, I was this excited when I had my little Corsa
They do a model, but only the 1130cc model, I've got to get it from Italy to have the 900cc model like i've got.
Old mans got one, i'll get one at some point
C2Rl Meaty bicycle
Barns, nope, Benelli Motorcycles have been around for a looooooooooooooooooong time.

I think Benelli's are only second to Ducati on visual excitment.

Yes pal I'm a member on the org under the same name. Only become a member recently but a they're a really decent bunch and I've already been on a few rideouts with a few of the Yorkshire members.
You're called Daimo over on the org aren't you? Saw the thread you made about the Tornado when you first got it. Look forward to seeing some footage of you putting Nelli through her paces on the track.

Its a bloody good camera, but I was a little dissapointed with how well the quality came out. Its 30fps, but I zoomed in so I think thats made the difference. Usually comes out better quality.
Its one of those Panasonic DMC-TZ5. Great camera, like x10/x12 (?) Optical zoom or something mad.

I dont ride bikes and doubt I ever will but I've got a thing about buying a Ducati one day even though it would only sit in the garage. Or maybe hang it on the wall like I saw on Grand Designs

That looked awful though, if he'd just parked it in the corner of the room would of looked better, or possibly ridden the thing.

Theres a guy in the USA who has TWO of the 150 LE's in the world. Number 131 and number 150!!!!
150 is sat in a glass cabinet in his 1500sq ft games room, in the middle of his bar. 131 is still ridden. When he was based in the UK he had another LE, of which my old man bought before the bloke went back to the states.
He's a USAF jet pilot. Mofo! Currently in Afgan though Still, what a job.
I'd have one like that as well if I could afford it. 916, 888 etc

I thought it looked ok.
Be better on a slightly raised plinth in the corner of the room though
