DSK Benelli has launched the TNT 600i model with switchable ABS in India priced at Rs 5.73 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). The availability of a switchable ABS system addresses the absence of safety features noted on almost all the big Benellis.

The bike maker had showcased its upgraded TNT 600i model earlier this year at the 2016 Auto Expo in Delhi. The TNT 600i is powered by DOHC 600cc, in-line four-cylinder engine that produces 86.24hp at 11,500rpm. At present, over 700 units of the model have been sold across India. Bookings for the ABS-equipped TNT 600i are currently open.   

The DSK Benelli TNT 600i is available at all DSK Benelli showrooms in Tier-I and key Tier-II cities across India – these include Pune, Mumbai, Thane, Goa, Ahmedabad, Surat, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kochi, Coimbatore, Delhi, Chandigarh, Jaipur, Indore and Kolkata.

Rumbling through smooth and empty forest roads is enjoyable on all three motorcycles, but especially so on the Himalayan.

Tools at the ready! Himalayan’s saree guard came loose. (That’s it!) Mojo’s mirrors dangled uselessly. Rattle on Thunderbird couldn’t be pinpointed.

Comes ready to strap on luggage.

Paper-storage bin under rider’s seat.

Discreet slot for pillion seat release.

Unbolt rubber shoes for slushy rides.

Feature packed, but iffy to read.

Mahindra Mojo.

Easy to read, but lacks gear indicator.

21-litre tank perfect for long rides.

Pirellis offer solid grip on tarmac.

Single-piece seat not very comfy.

Strong bite but poor feel from disc.

Exhaust note part-justifies extra weight.

Royal Enfield Thunderbird 500.

Twin-shocks could do with more travel.

Sissy bar a welcome feature for pillions.

Blue backlight odd on classic design.

Projector lamp illuminates well.

20-litre tank, second largest here.

Long muffler looks disproportionate.
