Description

This is the Italian Model of the Benelli 125cc Nuovo Leoncino. Montgomery Wards also imported an identical bike and called it a Cobra. This is not the Wards bike but the Italian Bike. Story from the guy I bought it from is a Vietnam Vet brought it into the country when he was discharged. It has a clear title and runs great. I doubt if the mileage is correct by the finish but the tires are original and show minimal wear. It has original Pirelli Tires with good tread an minimal cracking. These tires are tough to find for a correct restoration.

I have had this bike for years and have accumulated all of the parts for a total restoration. I am unable to finish for personal reasons my loss is your gain.

Take a close look at the pictures there is a lot of money in parts. TheNOS laced rear hub has dual sprockets which is near impossible to find. This would be a beautiful bike finished. You could make some money selling the extra parts after restoration.

I will not box and ship buyer is responsible for shipping. I have had good success with uShip minimal cost. I can store it for a short time until pickup. Make sure you ask how long so there is no conflict.

I will not sell any parts separately. Don't ask. I won't bother responding.

Some of the never used NOS parts are; front forks front rim and spokes rear dual sprocket rear wheel handle bars and controls new seat on bike old seat included electrical components complete exhaust system with shields chrome fender struts rear rack is NOS but I has shelf corrosion and many more pieces. Look at the picture of the parts on the blue tarp closely and feel free to ask questions. You can part all of these out and make some good money on them.There is also another engine in a box that I picked up for a spare on another bike. Handy to have if you plan to put miles on an old bike.The tank has been Kreemed. The key works and is included. Clear Pennsylvania title. Hope that answers all of the questions.
