In 2012, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer released the Benelli Tre-K 1130 Amazonas, an off-road-oriented version of the standard model. The 2012 model featured the same characteristics as the previous one but came with new calibration on the suspension system, enhancing comfort in all riding conditions.
The Benelli Tre-K 1130 was a motorcycle manufactured by Benelli in 2006 and continued production until 2015. The bike was structurally derived from the Tornado Naked Tre (TNT) and was set in motion by the same three-cylinder engine.
Visually, the motorcycle had standard features, such as a dual headlight system, small side fairings, a medium-sized windscreen, a one-piece dual seat with a pillion grab rail, a three-into-one exhaust system with a muffler mounted under the seat, and wire-spoke wheels with off-road tires.
As for the power figures, the 2012 Benelli Tre-K 1130 Amazonas was set in motion by a 1,130cc four-stroke three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine, boasting 123 hp at 9,000 rpm and 115 Nm (85 lb-ft) torque at 6,250 rpm.
The power generated by the engine was redirected to the rear wheel via a six-speed transmission controlled by a wet multi-disc clutch, launching the motorcycle to a maximum speed of 224 kph (139 mph).
Some notable features included the frame, which was designed to handle every shock in any situation, the new position of the radiator that allowed high thermal exchanges at low speed and off-road use, and the rear end, which was designed to guarantee the best stability, comfortability, and suspension reaction.
