Motorcycles are rarely posted here but for those who are keen on some interesting two-wheelers, what is this one?
Make, model and year please for one point.
No Rookie motor cycle experts so moving up a level.
the engine is a Benelli 500 cc : I think that the bike is a sort of race one

Yes it's a racing Benelli.
I'll LOCK it for you until your next answer to come up with the model number and the year.
so, I think that this bike was made from the late Benelli 500 Quattro - the 504 sport- from 1979 or the latest 654 Sport but I'm not sure it was born as a race bike, probably not a factory modification

Yes it's the Benelli 654 Sport but the date is a few years younger.
Still locked for you.
Benelli 654 Sport was produced from 1981 to 1986: this one...first try: 1982?

......and 1982 is spot on!
That earns you another point and edges you closer to Pro status. (make sure you enjoy the last 20 points!)
