VEHICLE REVIEW

2009 Benelli Tre-K 1130 Amazonas

We live on the same horizon, but we have different views.That’s Benelli’s answer to the riders who go further !

First of all, anyone who tries to convince you that you need an engine that is almost exactly the same displacement as a Fiat Panda, which is a five door car which shuttles five fully grown adults around anywhere in Europe, in order to go off road riding should have their head examined. It's absolute lunacy to take a 1131 cc engine off a paved road. Having said that, if I was riding across the world, or at least on the Panamericana, this is the motorcycle that I would most likely choose. The Benelli Tre-K 1130 Amazonas is a gigantic, mega powerful, and a real handful, but there most likely isn't a challenge anywhere on the planet that it couldn't just motor through. I also adore the look of the bike, with the paint scheme finding the proper balance between modernity and purposefulness. It's one helluva bike!

This bike is driven by a mighty 1131 cc, water cooled, 3 - cylinders in line engine with a bore and stroke of 88 mm x 62 mm and a compression ratio of 11.9:1 which grants the motorcycle a stupendous 125 horsepower (90.5 kW). When we consider the total weight of the motorcycle being 458 pounds (208 Kg.), and factor it into the beefy horsepower on tap we get a sum of 3.72 pounds per horsepower, a figure that is quite close to the power to weight ratio of a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1.
