We have a TNT in the garage. Sick engine, one of the best chassis I have ever ridden. The thing is quite heavy, but only when you have to push it. You donīt feel it when you ride it.

Wheelies like hell.

They do have some problems though. Ours (04 Sport) is getting quite hot during city cruising and when your battery isnīt fresh, it will shut everything down when the fans go on. Some guys on the Benelli Forum in the US seem to have found a fix for that. But it just happens every now and then to ours.

Other than that, I havenīt ridden a bike which was more fun, which made me even go crazier and made me smile that much on the street.

Also I love the looks.

Maybe you should go ride a Superduke as well, I hear theyīre a lot of fun.
Being a Ducatista, my choice would be the S4R(s) or maybe the Hypermotard.
