About this model
About the Benelli 254
The Benelli 254 is the 231cc four-cylinder from the late 1970s and early 1980s. Technically it shares its small air-cooled SOHC inline-four with the Benelli 250 Quattro, but the 254 received its own more conventional sport/touring specification and remained in production longer. Names and photographs are often mixed in adverts; bodywork, instruments and frame number make the difference.
The 254 appeals as a rare mini four with plenty of character, but needs more attention than an ordinary single-cylinder 250. Four carburettors, valves, ignition and cooling airflow must work together correctly. Choose on clean cold starting, documented synchronisation and original complete bodywork.

Before you buy
What to check before buying
- Identify 254 versus 250 Quattro by frame plate and bodywork; the shared 231cc engine alone does not establish model identity.
- Check four carburettors for synchronisation, leaks and storage contamination.
- Check valve clearances, cam chain, oil level and starting behaviour of the compact SOHC inline-four.
- Test contact-breaker ignition, charging, switches and instruments for reliable operation.
- Inspect exhaust, wheels and plastic parts for corrosion, cracks and incorrect replacements.
