I keep up on everything (Motorcycle) that is note worthy. I actually look at stuff comming out today, and thinking of owning it a couple of years from now. The future looks neat in the way of bikes comming out. This new one from Benelli is the coolest thing that has come down the pipe since the KTM 950 Adventure.

A parallel twin with 95hp called the Tre-K Amazonas. We will probably never see it here in the USA but it is very cool all the same. Thought you guys would like to droooool over it.

Sexy indeed!! Looks like it would give the new Triumph Tiger a real run for it's money! Don't know about Benelli's reliability and parts availability tho. Still, the drool factor is very high!!

Very sexy. I like that Tre-K. Are the front turn signals built into the mirrors? That is cool and I like the space savings and "simplicity" of it....but I'd be breaking those darn things too often....kaching!

Every time I see an adventure bike with a low front fender I wonder how many people get thrown when a rock lodges between the tire and the fender. Mark "Big Dog" Sampson says his 950 Adventure about killed him when that happened. He raised the front fender.

Thanks for telling us about these cool new bikes, Tracy!

I was reading more on it tonight. Its not a twin but a triple like the Tiger. The Benelli Due 756 is the twin.
