Benelli is in the process of upgrading its motorcycle line-up in India to meet BS6 emission norms and the TNT 600 is definitely a model that will be included in its future portfolio.

Apart from that, the motorcycle stays the same as before. The motorcycle also gets a new full-colour TFT instrument console and gold-anodised upside down forks, giving it a premium look. Other features include keyless ignition and a USB charging port. The SRK 600 gets an in-line four-cylinder engine which displaces 600 cc and makes 81.5 bhp and 55 Nm, which is the same as before. However, the engine is likely to have been re-tuned, to offer better performance.
