Technical Overview
2006 Benelli Tornado Tre L.E. Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Positioned in Benelli's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2006 Benelli Tornado Tre L.E. pairs a 898 cc (54.8 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line three, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 140.8 HP (102.8 kW) at 11,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 100 Nm (73.8 lb-ft) at 8,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 156.8 HP per liter and a 3,000 rpm working window between peak torque (8,500 rpm) and peak power (11,500 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the Tornado Tre L.E. measures 185 kg (408 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.76 HP/kg (1.31 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.
