In 2013, the Italian motorcycle maker released the Benelli BN 600i, a half-faired motorcycle with an aggressive design created to satisfy the wishes of the most demanding riders.
The Benelli BN 600i was a middle-class naked motorcycle manufactured by Benelli from 2012 to 2016. It was made for various riders, especially the more adventurous Benelli fans.
In the visual department, the bike had standard fittings, like a single headlight unit integrated into a small cowl, a two-piece dual seat with passenger grab rails, an off-set horizontal-mounted rear shock absorber, a four-into-one-into-two exhaust system with silencers mounted under the seat, and multi-spoke alloy wheels.
The 2013 Benelli BN 600i had installed a 600cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine underneath the fuel tank, boasting 82 hp with a peak force at 11,500 rpm and 52 Nm (38 lb-ft) torque at 10,500 rpm.
The bike's suspension system comprised a 50 mm upside-down telescopic fork on the front with 120 mm of travel and an aluminum alloy swingarm with a spring preload-adjustable shock absorber on the rear, providing 123 mm of travel.
In the braking department, the bike packed two 320 mm brake discs coupled to four-piston calipers on the front and a 240 mm brake disc tied to a dual-piston caliper on the rear, offering excellent stopping performance.
