The Benelli 600i is now available with ABS, it will sell alongside the non-ABS version of the bike. The ABS version is priced at a premium of Rs 33,000 over the non-ABS version at Rs 5,91,000 (ex-showroom Mumbai).
The Benelli TNT 600i is a middleweight streetfighter motorcycle which was launched along with four other Benelli models in March 2015. After a significant amount of request from customers the manufacturer has finally equipped the 600i with ABS.
The TNT 600i is built around a composite chassis made of steel trestle in the front and an aluminium section at the rear, which links the offset monoshock. The TNT 600i is powered by the same 600cc inline-four engine which is used in the TNT 600GT. This liquid-cooled engine is equipped with electronic fuel injection and delivers 82bhp and 52Nm of torque through a six-speed transmission.
The 600i will now prove to be a safer buy for people looking to buy a motorcycle in that segment as many were drawn away from it earlier since it lacked ABS. Benelli has just started accepting bookings for the ABS-equipped Benelli TNT 600i.
