2011 Benelli Tornado Tre 1130 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
At the heart of the 2011 Benelli Tornado Tre 1130 sport motorcycle, Benelli relies on a 1131 cc (69 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line three, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 160.9 HP (117.5 kW) at 10,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 124 Nm (91.5 lb-ft) at 8,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 142.3 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (8,000 rpm) and peak power (10,500 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the Tornado Tre 1130 measures 199 kg (439 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.81 HP/kg (1.24 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 810 mm (31.9 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,419 mm (55.9 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 19-liter (5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
