Benelli Tnt 1130
The Benelli Tnt 1130 has a top speed of 240 km/h, produces 150 hp and weighs 215 kg. Motoryk rates it 7/10.
Le Benelli TNT 1130 a été introduit en 2004, marquant le retour audacieux de Benelli aux motos hautes performances sous la nouvelle propriété chinoise du groupe Qianjiang. Il était équipé d'un moteur triple cylindre distinctif de 1 130 cm3 issu de l'héritage de la course automobile et a été salué pour son style agressif et sa note d'échappement unique. Ce modèle a fait de Benelli un concurrent sérieux dans le segment des motos sportives et a jeté les bases des variantes TNT suivantes, notamment les éditions Sport, Titanium et Café Racer.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir
Triple Cylinder Powerhouse
The TNT 1130 uses a unique 3-cylinder 1130cc engine that delivers strong midrange torque and a distinctive exhaust note rarely found in this class. This setup makes it feel livelier than comparable inline-fours at everyday riding speeds.
Watch the Electrics
Common owner complaints include electrical gremlins such as faulty sensors, charging system issues, and temperamental fuel injection, especially on earlier models. Always inspect wiring condition and test the charging system before buying used.
Depreciation Works For You
The TNT 1130 holds relatively low resale value compared to Japanese rivals, meaning used buyers can find strong performance at a significant discount. However, reselling later can be slower due to limited brand recognition in Western markets.
Générations et spécifications par année
Lancement original avec un triple moteur de 1 130 cm3, un moteur dérivé de Tornado, un cadre en treillis et un style nu agressif.
"Le tonnerre italien avec un bagage de fiabilité italien frustrant."
Ce triple-régime ne ressemble à aucun autre dans sa catégorie : à moins de 4 000 tr/min, il est grognon et grumeleux, mais lorsqu'il dépasse 6 500 tr/min, le véhicule hurle, avec un son qui fait vraiment tourner les têtes lors des arrêts de carburant. Le cadre en treillis est rigide et communicatif, le feedback du châssis est excellent et, à 215 kg, il semble plus léger que ne le suggère la fiche technique une fois que vous vous déplacez. Mais j'ai passé du temps réel à rechercher un gremlin électrique qui s'est avéré être un connecteur de terre douteux, et trouver des pièces hors d'Italie en 2005 a été un véritable exercice de patience : le réseau de concessionnaires existait à peine. Si vous pouviez vivre avec cela et que vous mainteniez le jeu des soupapes de manière obsessionnelle, ce vélo vous a récompensé en vous offrant une expérience de conduite vraiment différente de celle de la compétition japonaise.

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion
"Exotic, rewarding, but demands a thorough pre-purchase inspection absolutely."
$4,500-$7,500 usedThe TNT 1130 is one of those bikes that rewards patience and mechanical sympathy in equal measure. That Triumph-sourced triple sounds absolutely savage — raw, characterful, genuinely exciting in a way that modern bikes simply aren't — and when it's running right, you'll forgive it almost everything. The chassis is surprisingly capable too, with Italian-spec suspension that actually works rather than just looks pretty. Here's the honest part though: these things can be maintenance nightmares. Parts availability from Benelli's UK and US networks is patchy at best, and finding a specialist who actually knows the bike is harder than it should be. Check the service history obsessively. Cam chain tensioners and valve clearances are the first questions you ask. Electrics can be gremliny on older examples, and cooling systems need inspection before handing over cash. Buy a well-documented, dealer-maintained example and you've got an exotic, characterful machine for genuine bargain money. Buy blind and you're gambling.
