Review
The 2011 Benelli TNT R 160 is a high-performance naked bike built for aggressive riding. Its 1131cc inline-triple engine produces a substantial 155 horsepower at 10300 RPM and 120 Nm of torque at 8000 RPM, providing exhilarating acceleration and a visceral riding experience. The six-speed gearbox allows the rider to fully exploit the engine's power, and the bike's responsive throttle ensures precise control. The bike features a relatively high 820mm (32.3 inches) seat height, placing the rider in an assertive position. Its weight of 208 kg (458.6 pounds) is reasonable for a bike of this class. The 16-liter fuel tank provides an adequate range for spirited riding. The suspension consists of 50mm upside-down forks adjustable for compression, rebound, and preload, providing excellent handling and feedback. Braking is handled by dual front discs with four-piston calipers, offering strong and reliable stopping power. The TNT R 160 is aimed at experienced riders who appreciate raw power and sharp handling. It's a bike that demands attention and rewards skilled riders with an adrenaline-pumping experience. Its aggressive styling and powerful engine make it a standout machine on the road.
