Rider Profile

Best ForSuits an intermediate to experienced rider who wants a torquey inline-four without the razor-edge focus of a pure sportbike.
PurposeBuilt for covering long distances comfortably while still offering a lively four-cylinder engine for enjoyable road riding.
Rider FitA substantial machine at over 240 kg wet, so shorter or less experienced riders may find low-speed maneuvering and parking lot handling a bit demanding.
CharacterA characterful, high-revving in-line four wrapped in a sport-touring package, offering strong mid-range and a smooth top-end rush with a windscreen and luggage-ready setup.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders seeking off-road capability or a lightweight, flickable city commuter.

2017 Benelli TNT 600 GT 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 2017 Benelli TNT 600 GT, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
