Overview[edit | edit source]

Just like the Benelli Tornado Naked T, the Benelli Tornado 302 treads on one of motorcycling’s iconic names, replacing it with a budget-oriented model. At its core is the same 300cc parallel-twin 36hp engine found in the Benelli BN302, but Benelli has built a bespoke chassis for the sport bike, which is certainly appealing to our senses.
