New Benelli 750cc Streetbike on the Cards!

Benelli SpA has been reportedly working a new street-bike codenamed as the "BJ750GS". An image of the motorcycle has surfaced on the internet and gives us a real glimpse into the Italian manufacturer's next offering.

The leaked image reveals a lot about the motorcycle and the first thing that catches your attention is the new platform that it has been built on. The motorcycle has the same engine that is also used in the TNT 899 and the TNT 1130 R. However, on the basis of its codename, the motorcycle is expected to have an engine displacement of around 750cc.

While the current TNT series by Benelli uses Brembo and Marzocchi component, expect the new offering to be equipped with in-house braking and suspension parts. That said we can safely assume that the new 750cc motorcycle from Benelli will be a cost effective proposition.

Other noticeable aspects of the bike include the under-seat exhaust system that has been replaced with a large single canister. Also, the motorcycle now features the conventional centrally mounted radiator instead of the one on each side as the other TNT models. However, considering the new safety regulations, the motorcycle will come with ABS as a standard fitment.

Benelli could possibly introduce this new 750cc motorcycle by the end of this year in the market. When launched in India, the new offering will go up against the likes of the Kawasaki Z800 and the Triumph Street Triple in the mid-weight segment of performance motorcycles.
