The Next Big Small Thing
Designed in Italy alongside the full-sized Benellis, the TNT 135 is already revered in the USA for its class-dominating performance produced from its single-cylinder, air-cooled, four-valve, twin-spark, 135cc, Euro5 powerplant. Power and torque are, respectively, nearly 13 hp (9.3kW) at 9,000 rpm and 8ft. lbs. (10.8Nm) at 7,000 rpm. Final drive is by a five-speed transmission and chain.
The TNT135 rolls on 12-inch wheels with 120/70x12 and 130/70x12 tires. Communicating its performance abilities is its steel trellis chassis, 35mm inverted fork with 4.7-inches (120 mm) of travel, and a single rear shock with spring pre-load adjustability and axle travel of 4.7- inches (120 mm). The seat height is 30.7-inches (780 mm), which feels lower due to being narrow, and the control placements provides comfort for everyone.
The Benelli TNT 135 braking features a 210 mm front rotor, while the rear a single 190 mm rotor.

Engine
The only SOHC 4-Valve engine in it's class, this jewel of an engine uses it's superior head design to pump out 13 HP from 135cc. Cooling is via air/oil and power is put down through a 5 speed gearbox. Like all TNT engines, it offers plenty of smooth, controllable power. It’s just the thing for trolling through the city, or carving your way down an empty back road.
Frame
The TNT family of motorcycles all have a trellis frame. This design approach makes smart use of materials to achieve both beauty and performance. The trellis frame gives a tuned amount of flex (acting as part of the suspension system at high lean angles) which gives incredible feel and precision, giving the rider supreme confidence.
Rear Suspension
In the rear, a laterally mounted shock absorber with adjustable pre-load controls a super rigid, braced swingarm. This accommodates a wide variety of rider weights, and gives the superior suspension feel that Benelli has been known for.
Front Suspension
In the front, the beefy 35mm USD forks, finely tuned suspension geometry and tuned flex from its steel trellis upper frame give precise yet stable handling.
