BENELLI BN 600i (2015-2016) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2015, 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. It was in its fourth production year, packing the same specifications as the previous one.

The 2015 model came in the same package as the previous one, delivering the same technical, visual, and performance specifications without any significant modifications whatsoever.

Suspension-wise, the motorcycle packed a 50 mm upside-down telescopic fork on the front, offering 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 motorcycle packed two 320 mm brake rotors coupled to four-piston calipers on the front end and a 240 mm brake disc tied to a dual-piston caliper on the rear, offering excellent stopping performance.

In the visual department, the bike was characterized by 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.

As for power, the 2015 Benelli BN 600i took its muscles from a 600cc four-stroke liquid-cooled four-cylinder engine that delivered an output power of 82 hp at 11,500 rpm and 52 Nm (38 lb-ft) torque at 10,500 rpm.
