There are a seemingly infinite number of different types of motorcycle enthusiasts in the world, but it takes a very specific type of person to see something in pretty rough shape and know they need to have it. Of course, making good content for the Internet is surely a part of the decision-making process—but even so, there’s only so far down the path that factor might take you.
Folks, this is a barn-find 1976 Benelli Sei, spotted by Brick House Builds on a Facebook Marketplace ad less than an hour after it was posted for sale. As BJ of BHB tells the story, there was but a single photo, of this sad machine tipped over and slowly becoming one with all the leaves, mud, and general barn debris all around it. It was, of course, filthy—and you could barely see enough to know what you were looking at. Still, the sight of the width of that engine and realizing it was no mere four-cylinder is what spurred him to hit up the seller and go check it out in person.
