Why Are There So Many Second-hand Benelli 752s?
2 Answers
Here are the reasons why there are many second-hand Benelli 752s: 1. Market Environment: Whether it's imported or domestically produced, new models are constantly being launched, and these new bikes are more exciting to ride. After riding for a while—usually a few months or a few thousand kilometers—the original motorcycle is often sold, and the rider purchases a new model. 2. Performance: When the 752S was first launched, many riders wanted to experience it due to its 750cc displacement. This naturally led to a certain number of these bikes being available on the market. From an individual perspective, it also relates to the bike's own riding experience. 3. Appearance: Domestic motorcycles tend to age relatively quickly after being used for a while. Beyond a certain point, the bike's condition—both in terms of refinement and appearance—shows a noticeable decline compared to a new one. As a domestically produced motorcycle, the Benelli 752S often exhibits signs of aging after riding over 10,000 kilometers, such as wear on the exterior parts, localized rust, and a less refined look. The steering bearings in the front may even develop some stiffness.
I just sold my 752s, let me explain why there are so many second-hand ones. This bike was a hot seller when new, with many young riders choosing it as their first big-displacement motorcycle, resulting in a huge ownership base. Many people ride it for just a year or two before upgrading, naturally flooding the used market. Additionally, while the 752s looks stylish, it has some minor issues like low-speed jerking and less-than-ideal vibration control, prompting some owners to sell. Its relatively high fuel consumption also makes city commuting expensive, leading budget-conscious riders to part ways. Plus, its strong appeal as a beginner's transitional bike means many sell after gaining experience. The bike's design is decent, but Benelli's resale value simply can't match Japanese rivals.
