Whats the cost of this #$%*

Def. badass......

Yes definitely bad ass. I can't find a price anywhere. Not even listed in the NADA guide. Sort of like sex on wheels. From what I know this is a 3 cylinder like the speed triple. But damn if I can find a price for one.

I loved my "super" bikes. Wish that I had a larger garage - two cars take up too much room. I never kept my super bikes very long, I would sell them after a year or two. I became bored with them for some reason. It certainly wasn't because of their performance. I think that my love for tinkering with mechanical stuff wasn't being fulfilled with those bikes. The CB750 cured all of that. I do miss the sheer power, handling, and reliability of those bikes, but they are machines to be respected. I did this too often (see photos) and decided that maybe a less powerful and heavier bike might help me keep my license a bit longer.

Yes, the Benelli TNT is an inline triple. I don't know for sure if it was ever sold in the US. But I found on motorcyclenews.com the list price is 9500 UK pounds for an '04 or '05. That is equal to 17,892.30 U.S. dollars.

Kick ass Sparty!

That ZRX pic looks like you're going around a corner on one wheel.

I was going around a corner with that wheelie. Just a little weight shift here and there and you could steer that bike on the rear wheel.

That would be some talent you there. So, how's the CB do on one wheel? Got any pics of that?

No photos of the Cb in a wheelie, nor will I take it up, those front forks can't take it.
