First Ride: 2022 Benelli Tornado TNT 125 ABR Festival 4K

First Ride: 2022 Benelli Tornado TNT 125 ABR Festival 4K
I first saw the Benelli Tornado TNT 125 at EICMA in 2021. It's a tiny 125cc bike, and this video is taken at the ABR Festival 2022 where I was able to take one with knobbly tyres (yes, they do knobbly tires that small!) round part of the Adventure Trail.
It was done for a bit of a giggle, but actually I had a great time. I don't think I'd want to go much further on one, but for a bike so small, it feels like you could almost pick up up and you just can't stop smiling when riding it! The suspension is basic, the ground clearance (especially with me on it!) is almost zero, but I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend trying one to anyone.
This is more information about the bike:

I hope the video is interesting and useful!
Thanks for watching

Yes, this looked like fun!
I really like all the little 125cc bikes that have come out over the past few years, like the KZ125, the Honda Grom, etc.
My favorite is the Honda Monkey.
Thanks for the “ride along”. That was a nice track, but the bigger bikes zooming by made me a little nervous.
Have Fun

The Honda Monkey is great, but it comes at a price. Not sure I’m quite ready for that yet. If I was going to get a 125, I think I’d be more inclined to get a Super Cub (or the off road version, if they ever bring them to the UK). And yes, the bigger bikes kept it interesting 🤣

Hi , I actually bought one of those tnts on your test , I bought one as I’d always liked them , I original had a 2019 monkeybike which was written off , and bought 2 groms and a monkeybike , ( the 5 speed models ) the benelli is still a bit of kit and is a joy to ride , considering it’s about £1300 cheaper , the groms are the best road bikes ,monkey is awesome too , but the benelli to truly think it’s a impressive bit of kit , I’ve done 6000 Miles on the groms monkey combined this year and 500 on the benelli so far , more miles on the small bike than on my big bikes , honestly their a riot , anyone thinking of going to a small bike , go for it their faster than you think and doing 80 miles and squeezing 3 or 4 pounds in is quite refreshing , I’m telling you whatever you buy you won’t regret it for a second 🏍🏍🏍🏍👍👍👍👍

[@PeakMotorcycles]

That’s awesome! I expect my commission check got lost in the post 🤣. I had been keeping an eye out for one but had been distracted by recent events. I shall renew my search. Thanks for the info. Ride safe.

[@claretbuck1882]

Looks awesome fun bud 👍🏻

[@PeakMotorcycles]

It was hilarious 🤣. Not sure I’d have one in my garage though.

[@Fluggaenkoechiebolsen]

I love the tnt 125, but was falling a sleep while watching this

[@PeakMotorcycles]

Thanks for watching it anyway, and I hope you slept well.

[@babyjackism]

Reminds me of a Gilera DNA 125 circa 1999

[@PeakMotorcycles]

Just looked that up, and yes 🤣. All it needs is some knobblies and some circus music and it’d be all set!

[@summa1988able]

What helmets that please?

[@PeakMotorcycles]

Hi Rich, it’s an LS2 Explorer Carbon.

[@HuwPewPew]

Bit of a strange place to ride it considering it's not meant for offroad 🤔

[@PeakMotorcycles]

Oh. I enjoyed it anyway. Was just missing some circus music 🤣. It did have knobbly tyres if that helps.
