Finished in red with black accents, the motorcycle is powered by an air-cooled 490cc V-twin paired with a five-speed transmission. It also has an enclosed driveshaft, an electric starter, a pair of Dell’Orto carburetors, a dual exhaust system, triple disc brakes, silver-finished 18″ alloy wheels, a two-up seat, a rear grab bar, folding passenger foot pegs, bar-end mirrors, and both center and side stands. Work under current ownership is said to have included changing the oil, final drive lubricant, and brake fluid.

The bike is finished in red with black accents. Features include a round headlight, a rear grab bar, a two-up seat with an Italian flag inlay, and folding passenger foot pegs as well as both center and side stands.

Silver-finished 18″ alloy wheels are wrapped in Pirelli tires. Suspension consists of a telescopic fork in addition to dual shocks attached to the silver-finished swingarm on the left and the final-drive housing on the right. Braking is from Brembo calipers mounted over dual 260mm front discs as well as a single 235mm rear rotor. The brake fluid was flushed under current ownership.

The handlebar carries bar-end mirrors, and it is mounted aft of a Veglia Borletti 80-mph speedometer, a matching tachometer, and several warning lamps.

The air-cooled 490cc OHV V-twin is equipped with an electric starter, a pair of Dell’Orto carburetors, and a dual exhaust system. The oil was changed approximately 300 miles ago.
