    Make : Benelli
    Model : TNT600i

    DSK-Benelli recently revealed their motorcycle range for India. There’s a range of five bikes to be sold in our market initially, from 300cc to 1130cc. That includes a pair of 600’s, both equipped with in-line four cylinder engines. We have just had a quick spin on the Benelli TNT600i, the sportier bike of this pair.

    The Benelli TNT600i is designed in Italy, built in China, and assembled in India by DSK Motowheels - Benelli quality standards adhered to throughout. Viewed head on, the naked Benelli TNT600i’s front bikini fairing lacks the charm many of us have come to associate with Italian bikes. Looking beyond though, the Benelli TNT600i is a handsome and well-proportioned motorcycle overall. Between its dual tone, sleek fuel-tank and contemporary tail piece, sits a wide split saddle. Smart knee recesses are well designed in the tank, and allow the rider good tank grip. The Benelli TNT600i comes with thick looking underseat exhausts that match its sporty intent.

    There’s plush, comfortable palm grips, well shaped control levers (reach adjustable for the brake) and smart mirrors. A massive alloy swingarm, attractive alloy wheels and chunky tyres add to the bike’s muscular stance.
