BENELLI BN 600i (2014-2015) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Benelli BN 600i was a middle-class naked motorcycle produced by Benelli from 2012 to 2016. It suited various riders, but especially the more adventurous Benelli fans.

In 2014, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer released the Benelli BN 600i, a half-faired motorcycle with an aggressive design created to satisfy the wishes of the most demanding riders.

The 2014 model came in the same shape and form as the previous one, packing the same technical, visual, and performance characteristics without any significant modifications whatsoever.

The 2014 Benelli BN 600i had its heartbeat set by a 600cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine mounted 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.

Visually, the motorcycle had standard features, such as 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.

For suspension, the bike packed 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.

As for the braking power, the model's wheels were fitted with two 320 mm brake discs squeezed by four-piston calipers on the front and a 240 mm brake disc tied to a dual-piston caliper on the rear, providing excellent stopping performance.
