2026 Benelli Tornado 550

The Tornado 550 is Benelli’s new flagship model in the full-fairing segment: sculpted and aggressive lines for a supersport bike suitable for everyday use. Powered by a 554 cc parallel twin (an evolution of the famous 500 cc Benelli powertrain), it delivers 56 hp at 8,250 rpm and 54 Nm at 5,500 rpm, featuring a 270° crank configuration and a 6-speed gearbox, while braking performance is commanded by dual Brembo 4-piston calipers gripping floating 320 mm discs with ABS. The steel trellis frame uses the engine as a load-bearing element, complemented by adjustable Marzocchi suspension and Brembo components to deliver a rigid, responsive, and track-inspired platform. On-board technology is on spot: it includes 5” TFT color display, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, USB-C, Traction Control, two riding modes and integrated TPMS. With just 790 mm of seat height and a comfortable riding seat, the Benelli Tornado 550 is ready to dominate the storm.
