Owner review: Benrus 3061 – The Bullitt Benrus

When I was young, one of my favourite movies was The Great Escape with Steve McQueen, especially when you watch him run away from the Germans on the recently commandeered motorbike. To me he was one of the coolest people to ever live, his style, the cars he owned, there just will never be anyone…
