Pictures of a new The Benelli TnT600i (or BN600i in other markets) were seemingly leaked over the internet.

The new bike shows aesthetic changes, while the rest of its parts look status quo.

Starting from the front, the “new” bike will have a twin headlamp setup, differing from the current type which has been in circulation for a long time. The fuel tank also appears to have changed.

Apart from that, the exhaust silencers are no longer sited under the seat and are instead underslung under the engine. Doing so may save some weight as well as giving the bike a more centralized center of gravity.

With the silencers relocated, the tailsection looks tidier and a splash guard is mounted on the swingarm. It might carry the number plate plus turnsignals a la MV Agusta Brutale.

There is also speculation that this bike will receive a new TFT screen, which remains to be seen. Benelli has stuck with the conventional analogue RPM meter and an LCD screen for too long.

That howling inline-Four engine looks the same, although the exhaust headers are now aligned and parallel to each other.

We just hope that the previous random starting problems have been sorted.
