The small-capacity entry in Benelli's TNT naked range, with a liquid-cooled 300 cc twin and a steel trestle frame. It has a small headlight with a short screen, knee recesses in the tank, an upright riding position and a mixed analogue/digital instrument panel. Reviewers praised the engine and range but found some finish quality lacking.
