Benelli’s parent company Qianjiang Motors has just launched the SRG600 faired motorcycle. This may be rebranded as the Benelli 600RR and sold globally. However, Benelli could also launch its mid-capacity naked and faired motorcycle with the new Euro 5-compliant 650cc inline-four motor. So we could see a new TNT 650 and 650RR being launched globally in the near future.

The new 1000cc inline four-cylinder motorcycle could power Benelli’s new 1000cc naked, sports tourer or adventure tourer. It would go up against motorcycles such as the Kawasaki Z1000, Ninja 1000 and Versys 1000 which use the same engine platform. Interestingly, Benelli has also acquired the rights to MV Agusta’s 1078cc inline-four motor which delivered 160PS and 100Nm in the BS4 Brutale 1090.

Breaking Down BS6 Carburettors And Fuel Injection Explained

  It’s now been nearly 4 months since BS6 emission norms came into effect, and almost all the bikes and scooters sold in India have been updated to meet the stricter regulations. Most recent among these to receive the updates was the TVS Scooty Zest BS6 , which was launched a couple of days ago at Rs 58,640. Like all the BS6 updates we’ve seen so far, this new version is more expensive than its BS4 predecessor, by around Rs 6,000 in this case. And the biggest reason behind these price hikes is the addition of a fuel-injection system. So what exactly is it? And how did bikes work before fuel-injection came into the picture?

Air enters at the top, flows through a narrow con...
