Zhejiang Qianjiang, the owner of Benelli has unveiled the new TNT 600i for the Chinese market. The motorcycle has been launched as the QJ SRK 600 in China, and the latest iteration of the middleweight naked roadster features several cosmetic upgrades over its predecessor. Here we bring you a detailed image gallery of the new QJ SRK 600 (Benelli TNT 600i).
The most noticeable styling change is the revised front fascia that now features a more aggressive headlight design. The updated model uses full-LED projectors to perform illumination tasks.
The new, edgier fuel tank extensions complement the muscular, dual-tone look of the tank.
The cockpit has also been updated, and the new TNT 600i comes with a fully-digital instrument cluster. The console displays the speedometer, tachometer, odometer, fuel gauge, temperature gauge, gear-position indicator and a clock.
The redesigned tail-section features rear-tyre hugger-mounted numberplate and turn indicators. The new design also drops the under-seat exhaust setup for a cleaner look.
The under-seat exhaust from the old model has been replaced by a compact, underbelly unit on the new motorcycle.
The middleweight roadster is listed in three variants – Standard, Medium, and High. All three variants get different suspension and braking hardware. The colour options include four choices – white, black, red, and blue.
The new TNT 600i tips the weighing scale at 198k, which is 33kg lighter than the model sold in India.
The motorcycle uses a 600cc, inline-four-cylinder motor. The peak power output is rated at 80.4bhp at 11,000rpm, which is 1.4bhp than its predecessor. The maximum torque has also increased marginally and it is now rated at 55Nm.
