re: Benelli TNT 600i - Owners' Reviews & Experiences

While filling of fuel, usually bigger cc bikes have some sort of drain around the bike, I saw this problem during a YouTube review mr vikash ramachalla in Hyderabad.

For me, The looks is something for the people who are not on the saddle. I happily traded the looks for ride comfort as touring is something I had in mind while choosing the Benelli. Went in the showroom for a 600i and ended up booking a GT. I love the perfect seating position and the fact that 27 Liters of fuel helps me take lesser stops. The sound of the inline 4 with single underbelly exhaust after the engine hits 8000 RPM takes the minor flaws of the looks in the back pocket and all you're left with is the satisfaction of munching away miles in one big bite with least body fatigue and after 850kms of ride from Pune to Bangalore you're still fresh as a daisy!



That way The recent rather disturbing news of a fellow biker being charred to death in Delhi on a Royal Enfield should have all the RE owners running to their dealers for a refund.

The point is its how you mentain the bike that matters. Benelli might have started on a wrong foot by partnering with DSK in India, but the company is making real progress in terms of quality. All the bikes (especially GT) rolling off the assembly line are near perfect. Lets give DSK a thumbs up... The ruination of hyosung has taught them some lessons which can be seen in Benelli.

Go ahead! You'll have lots of fun! 4 inline, 84 bhp (approx) 200kgs and a sound that can turn heads from 100 meter away is something you'll LOVE!

Like what Sanket pointed out rightly, the spilling falls right on the engine case which could turn dangerous after you drive for sometime and overfill the tank, so its better we improvise and try to extend the drain tube all the way to the bottom near the side stand or better make sure you dont fill to the brim of the tank and worry for that later. Better to leave an inch or two from the top and be happy.

re: Benelli TNT 600i - Owners' Reviews & Experiences

This isn't a deal breaker if you ask me. Agree that It took 2-3 fills to understand how much the tank should be filled, but, now it's not a bother as such, really!

re: Benelli TNT 600i - Owners' Reviews & Experiences

Has anyone tuned their bikes? I know the 600's powerband is high up in the rev range, instead of 8000rpm, I thought 5000 or 6000rpm would be ideal for Most of the power to kick in.

Size comparison with R15 - for those few who haven't seen the 600i in flesh:

re: Benelli TNT 600i - Owners' Reviews & Experiences

Looks like the ABS version of 600i and GT will be launched in March this year, hopefully for many who are waiting the upgrade kits should be available soon aswell...

re: Benelli TNT 600i - Owners' Reviews & Experiences

Yup, I am exited to get the ABS kit for my 600i. Hope they provide the kit for non-ABS model at some extra cost. I think all the old non ABS model should be able to accommodate the ABS Technology.

Can you please provide the source of this information? Thanks

Re: Benelli TNT 600i - Onwers' Reviews & Experiences

We should be in a position to handle that kind of power under such low RPMs. Trust me, I crossed once 6k RPM inside city and I was pi**ing my pants. S**t scary, The power band high up the revv counter is good , IMO.

Nice twins bro. Make sure you get rid of the rear sliders if you planning on hitting the track or try to corner the bikes. If the sliders scraps the tarmac or gets caught in any holes or undulations on the road, you will be thrown off the bike or loose balance.

Take care,.

Re: Benelli TNT 600i - Onwers' Reviews & Experiences

No plans for the track with the 600. Isn't it a bit too heavy for the track?
I feel, track duties are taken care of better in the R15.

Anyway, the sliders, I didn't want to put it in the first place, but, gave in to peer pressure, you know! [emoji52]

re: Benelli TNT 600i - Owners' Reviews & Experiences

Addition of abs will definitely put this bike up there as a very strong middle weight contender, I will be more inclined to the benelli now than previously n more than the er6f.
