XM655 Maintenance and Preservation Society

03/08/2013 Benelli Riders Forum Visit

Saturday saw XM655 surrounded by 15 Benelli motorbikes and their riders from the Benelli Forum.

With the sun shining brightly, our visiters soon removed their leathers and found the Coleman tractor a useful substitute for a cloakroom!

It was something of a family visit as at least one member of the group arrived by car, bringing his sons along for the day, the two young boys joining in the fun.

All the group were very keen to look and discuss each others machines whilst waiting for their cockpit tours, especially as so many Benelli bikes all together is not a scene to be found every day!

All our visitors were very keen to get photos of their machines by XM655.

Simon, the group organiser, said "First of all I'd like to thank you and your team for making us all feel so welcome and providing an informative and enthralling day.

The guys on the Benelli forum all had a fantastic day out and will be talking about it for months to come."

Finally, having arrived in an immaculate convoy, at least 5 of the group left in the same way.
