Parts  
Finding alternative parts for the Benelli 2C is a constant challenge for the restorer. The following is a list I have compiled during the restoration.
   
PART SUPPLIER or ALTERNATIVE
   
Air Filter Fram CA73PL (I am told this is now just called a CA73). Also, in Australia, Ryco A5
   
Front sprocket Yamaha DT175, 17 tooth
   
Footpeg rubbers Same as Moto Guzzi V50. Possibly similar to many Yamaha.
   
Stainless spokes Originals are painted silver. Stailess available from Central Wheel Components
   
Petrol cap Same as certain Moto Morinis. These are still available new.
   
Fork seals Two per leg. Any bearing shop. Take a sample.
   
Bearings So far, all the bearings have been off-the-shelf at the bearing shop. Easy. Cheap.
   
Fork seal dust covers Contact Domiracer

Connecting Rod Big End Bearings Prox International (Netherlands) Big End Cage # 22.182415. 15 needle, silver.

Do you know any parts which fit the Benelli 2C? I am particularly interested in finding out if there are any other pistons which can be used on this bike. Contact me with any of your tips or tricks.
