| Benelli TNT 899 Sport
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| At a first glance you immediately know that this is
| |
| no Japanese machine and doesnt even intend to get close to that image
| |
| considered by many simple and uninspiring. What the two Benelli models try doing
| |
| is individualizing themselves in the world of stylish, aggressive and powerful
| |
| three-cylinder powered machines. Relying on their fuel-injected 899cc
| |
| liquid-cooled, three-cylinder, four-stroke, twelve-valves, DOHC engines and on
| |
| the versatile chassis to conquer the aimed market segment, both the normal and
| |
| the s versions of the Benelli Tornado Naked Tre 899 will have to fight the
| |
| finesse, heritage and immediate attraction that come with the name Triumph.
| |
| | |
| | |
| This takes us to the bikes strongest and most
| |
| challenging competitor. It is quite difficult to set the Tornado against either
| |
| the Speed Triple 1050 or the Street Triple 675 because Benellis 899ccs position
| |
| it just between the two as an option for potential customers who search for a
| |
| middle way.
| |
| | |
| | |
| But it is well worth taking in consideration the fact that the Triumph Street
| |
| Triple, a naked motorcycle powered by the famous 675cc liquid-cooled, DOHC,
| |
| in-line three-cylinder engine being fed through a multipoint sequential
| |
| electronic fuel injection develops an incredible 107bhp compared with Benellis
| |
| 114bhp. I reckon that the extra displacement doesnt pay off in the case of the
| |
| subjects of todays review, but their efforts couldnt have been unappreciated
| |
| as the results are quite remarkable.
| |
| | |
| Clearly setting it apart from the recently-appeared competitor are the British
| |
| bikes compactness, style and proved road abilities, while the Tornados would
| |
| have to prove that through the test drive opinions and the number of salves.
| |
| | |
| | |
| Until getting a feel of the bike, we can just admire
| |
| its personality and aggressive character exposed through its radical design. We
| |
| never underestimated the Italians talent when it comes to taking a white sheet
| |
| of paper and turning it into an entire generation of bikes, but this is one
| |
| demonstration of power. In fact two, I could say as there are clear design
| |
| differences between the Tornados Naked Tre 899 and the Tornado Naked Tre 899s.
| |
| The first is a roadster featuring an angry looking headlight, wide and yet small
| |
| side fairings painted in the colors of the gas tank. Their purpose is to uncover
| |
| to our eyes the source of entertaining, I mean the three-cylinder engine and the
| |
| exhausts way under the seat.
| |
| | |
| Having a massive 17
| |
| Liters
| |
| | |
| gas tank, the Tornado clearly indicates the fact that it was built for
| |
| sport-touring, only that it misses a wind-protective front fairing and
| |
| windshield which is a thing pretty much expected from Italian bikes as
| |
| nakedness is the key to their entire success.
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| The seat looks well accommodating and at 780mm above ground, it is perfect for
| |
| the average sized rider and if you were expecting for it to have a suddenly
| |
| ending rear end, well it has it and it doesnt. There is enough room for the
| |
| passengers but there, but it looks like the rear end of a fully-faired
| |
| previous-generation Japanese bike.
| |
| | |
| Wheels on both models feature 17 in diameter and the difference between the
| |
| simple and the s model is the fact that this last comes painted in an
| |
| aggressive orange paint scheme it is more compact and implicit better
| |
| handling.
