Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits riders who have moved past the absolute beginner stage and want a naked bike that rewards a more revvy, engaged riding style.
PurposeIt's built primarily for spirited street riding and weekend backroad fun rather than outright racing or long-distance touring.
Rider FitA moderate 800mm seat height and a curb weight around 220kg make it manageable for most average-height riders without being intimidating.
CharacterThe inline-four engine gives it a smooth, high-revving character with a distinctive engine note that sets it apart from typical twin-cylinder rivals in its class.
Not Ideal ForIt's not the right choice for riders seeking off-road capability or a plush, wind-protected long-haul touring experience.

2018 Benelli TNT 600 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 800mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2018 Benelli TNT 600, with a relaxed knee angle of around 125 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
