I don't think it is because nobody is interested?

I think the lack of response is due to the fact that not many were imported into the UK, so not many people here will ever have owned one or seen one, and may not have even heard of a "Benelli 254".

correct probably ,,,, but this should be a notice of interest for the biker ... expecially because it is the same as a Guzzi 254 (maybe more common) ...

it is a rarety in Italy too (probably no more than 4\5) ,,,

anyway ... i've found one into my frind's house in the countryard ... left there for more than 20 years ...
an now running again!

ive got one, a red 1982 one. starter is gone and ive put off replacing it because of other projects, it wasnt running when bought, i done the head gasket and a few other bits, sorted some dodgy wiring and got it running , rode it a few times and it was nice.
from what i gathered there was 5 imported to ireland by a particular dealer, they were too expensive so diddnt sell (almost twice the price of a honda 250 ) so 1 was kept for the dealers daughter and the rest exported .
you can still get parts in germany from benelli.de , ive got a few bits there and would reccomend them .
