Title: Benelli's version of what the 2007 Tiger should have been
Post by: eldiii on September 07, 2008, 04:32:13 AM
It's a Tre-k Amazonas, limited production, 123 HP, Metzler Tourances and expensive ($16,000)

Google it; BENELLI TRE-K AMAZONAS
 
Here is a link to a magazine article; www.benelliamerica.net/press_release/MSLNOV015.pdf (http://www.benelliamerica.net/press_release/MSLNOV015.pdf)

Looks pretty cool but I don't like the look of the side bag in photo 2, just might be able to squeeze my shades in there!  :)

Yes, the panniers are a little bit like a purse.

I'd ride one first :( the motors are as rough as a bears ass.

The crash bars look like they were made from a folding lawn chair.

I can second that! Our local Triumph dealer also imports Bennelli's. They look the part, but that's all !
