BENELLI Tre 900 Limited Edition (2002-2003) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Benelli Tornado Tre 900 was a sports motorcycle manufactured by Benelli in 2002, continuing production until 2014 when the last model was designated as the Tornado Tre 903. It addressed those riders searching for a one-of-a-kind sports bike.

In 2002, the Italian motorcycle maker launched the Benelli Tre 900 Limited Edition, an innovative motorcycle with excellent styling and technical solutions that satisfied the needs of riders searching for emotions and extreme performance.

The special edition machine was largely based on the racing model, wearing carbon fiber fairings and fuel tank, Marchesini forged aluminum wheels, a titanium exhaust system, Ohlins suspensions, and cast magnesium engine parts.

The bike was fitted with standard fittings, such as a full fairing, a vertical single headlight, a windscreen, a two-piece dual seat, a three-into-one exhaust system with an up-swept silencer mounted on the right-hand side, and 10-spoke forged aluminum wheels.

For suspension, the motorcycle packed an adjustable Ohlins telescopic fork mounted on the front and an adjustable Ohlins shock on the rear, providing excellent suspension performance and handling capabilities.

The braking power was achieved by a 240 mm disc mounted on the rear wheel and two 320 mm brake discs mounted on the front wheel. The front and rear discs were clamped to four-piston calipers.

As for power, the 2002 Benelli Tre 900 Limited Edition was set in motion by an 898cc four-stroke liquid-cooled three-cylinder engine managed by a fuel injection system, boasting 140 hp at 11,500 rpm and 95 Nm (70 lb-ft) torque at 8,800 rpm.
