Benelli’s Sei was the first production six-cylinder motorcycle when it was introduced as a 750. In ’78 it got a redesign which included a displacement bump up to 900cc. Though the press enjoyed the motorcycle, sales were modest because the MSRP was healthy – by 1983 it was $5,406.
The 905cc engine produced 80 horsepower, good enough to push the 484 pound (dry) bike up to a top speed of approximately 120 miles per hour. For more on the 900 Sei, check out this profile from Motorcycle Classics.
This example (VIN: 10627) has just 49 miles and has it never been registered. The seller claims it’s “as new in all regards, stored with care for over 30 years.” It’s currently on the way from Italy but will be sold with a California title. The seller says it’s one of the finest, all original 900 Seis still in existence, and I can’t disagree with him.
