When I was younger I had a Benelli 2-stroke, but I always liked the Benelli Sei.

It was the first six cylinder.

Road bike, maybe but 6 cylinder race bikes were around in the 60's I think

As a curiosity Benelli had a compressor (supercharged) engine in 1939, only two or three remain in existence.
