Motorcycle specifications Benelli900 Tornado Limited Edition 2002 Thus came the storm

some bikes have a destiny, sometimes giving way to oblivion, sometimes to the birth of a legend. While we can't predict the destiny of the new Benelli Tornado, it takes care to assert itself in the present. This bike is unlike any other... Starting with its otherworldly design. At once elegant and aggressive, with an unusual look and singular shapes as if inspired by a strange creature. But in this dress and silver, she fascinates the eye. You move forward at a snail's pace, gradually filling yourself with curiosity... and the reassuring elements entice you: inverted forks and Öhlins suspension, Brembo brakes. Getting closer..... You're too late! You've been captivated!

Underneath all its finery, the beauty already fascinates you. It's no use resisting, temptation will be the strongest. But why? Just listen. That beating heart is the 3-cylinder engine. A surprisingly compact engine that expresses itself in bewitching vocals. The frame is a set of steel tubes inserted and bonded into aluminum structures. To cool the 898 cm3, a classic water-cooling system is used, except that it is routed under the seat. 2 tunnels pass through the fairing on either side to bring fresh air to the radiator. And for the exhaust? 2 propellers housed in the rear shell take care of that. Hop in, she's ready and waiting. Admire the tank, the neat dashboard and the quality of the parts. Start the mill and you're in another world: the world of passion bikes. Let's recall the principle of a 3-cylinder: it's supposed to give you the flexibility and length of a 4-cylinder with the low-end torque of a twin. Thanks to its high-quality chassis and peripherals, the machine should prove highly efficient and provoke more than a smile on your face. The Benelli Tornado is a machine of rare intensity, on a par with an MV-Agusta F4. Its charm leads to passionate embraces - a quality that elevates the bike to the status of an objet d'art... and will make you forget its minor performance weaknesses in the face of the Japanese Bombes. But that's not what a Tornado is all about.
