serious damages for the user and for the vehicle itself. Benelli Q.J. is not responsablefor any
damage to persons or things caused by any modifications of the motorcycle original conditions.
It is possible to personalize the suspension trim by working on the special adjustments this
activity is absolutely unwary unless the user is absolutely confident in his technical ability. The
trim adjustment can compromise the motorcycle safe use and, therefore, it has to be done only
by expert persons. Wherever you want to personalize the motorcycle trim in relation to your
personal requirements, we suggest you to apply to a Benelli Q.J. Authorized Workshop. You
can find the Benelli Q.J. Authorized Workshop list on Benelli Q.J. web site www.benelli.com or

Do not ride this motorcycle if you do not possess a regular driving licence. Failure to heed this warning constitutes
a breach of the Highway Code, besides posing a serious hazard to the driver’s and other people’s safety.
Always wear a helmet, even on short rides.
Always wear suitable clothes, especially when travelling by night (e.g. garments with fluorescent bands).
When refuelling, switch off the engine and refrain from smoking.
Do not start the engine in closed places. Exhaust gases are toxic and can quickly saturate the air and cause fainting
or even death.
While riding, always keep both hands on the handlebars.
Park the vehicle where it is unlikely to be bumped into or damaged. Even slight or involuntary bumps can cause the
vehicle to topple over, with subsequent risk of serious harm to people or children.
To prevent the vehicle from tipping over, never park it on soft or uneven ground, nor on asphalt strongly heated by
the sun.
Do not cover your motorcycle with a canvas soon afterwards riding. Before covering your motorcycle, wait until the
engine and the exhaust pipes have thoroughly cooled.
If your motorcycle has been involved in an accident, check all levers, wires, hoses, brake calipers and other main
parts for damage. Do not use the vehicle if you detect a damage that could adversely affect safety.
As soon as possible and, kowever, before using your motorcycle after an accident, even if there are not any visible
damages, it is necessary to have it inspected by a Benelli Q.J.Authorized Workshop, in order to erify the absence of
defects and/or damages that the owner could not be able to detect.
2.1.3 Vehicle load
The vehicle is designed for use by the rider with a passenger. To drive safely and under the highway code, never
exceed the maximum allowed total gross weight of 400 kg (881.84 Lbs).
That is the sum of the motorcycle, driver, passenger and load weight, according to the EEC 92/61 directive.
WARNING
Since the load can strongly affect handling, braking, performance and safety characteristics of
your motorcycle, you should always keep in mind the following warnings.
NEVER OVERLOAD YOUR MOTORCYCLE! Driving an overloaded motorcycle can cause damage to
thetyres, loss ofcontrolof the vehicleandserious injury.Check thatthetotal of driverandpassenger
weight, the burden weight and the vehicle gross weight never exceed the granted values.
Never carry any incorrectly fastened object on your motorcycle, because it could move from its
position during riding.
Steadily fasten the heaviest objects near the center of the motorcycle, and equally divide the
load on both sides of the vehicle.
Do not insert any object in the spaces on the frame trellis, in order to avoid interferring with the
movable parts of the motorcycle.
Before riding, always check the wear and the pressure of the tyres.
Adjust the suspensions according to the load.
Even if the motorcycle is correctly loaded, drive with caution and never exceed 130 km/h (80.6
mph) when you carry a load.

2.1.4 Use of the vehicle in competitions
Your TORNADO NAKED TRE 1130 was projected for road use.
However,makingsome modifications,considering the highperformances thatthe motorcycle canreach, itis possible
to use it also in competitions.
However, you need to remember that once you transform the motorcycle for competitions use, it is nomore suitable
for street traffic unless it is brought to its original conditions.
To meet the passionate drivers numerous requests, Benelli Q.J. has designed a number of special components for
use in competitions and/or sporting events. The use of such components is strictly limited to areas closed to traffic.
Failure to observe this restriction constitutes a breach of the Highway Code for which Benelli Q.J. cannot be held
responsible.
For more information about Benelli Q.J. special components visit the web site www.benelli.com or call tghe
Benelli Q.J. Customer Service dialling +39 0721.418740.
WARNING
Riding the vehicle in competitions requires considerable skill and experience as well as an ac-
curate setup of the motorcycle which was to be made only by perticularly prepared persons.
2.1.5 Advices for safe riding
Besides being a means of transport, your motorcycle is a source of recreation and excitement. (and this is true,
especially, when we talk about a TORNADO NAKED TRE 1130!).
However the nature itself of the vehicle involves, a certain amount of risk.To ensure maximum safety, in addition to
scrupulously observing the warnings and instructions provided in the previous paragraphs, it is essential to take a
few additional precautions.
In particular:
Before starting off
Follow all the directions given in the section “PRE-RIDING CHECKS”. Conduct an overall check of all safety-related
aspects of the motorcycle.
Familiarizing with the vehicle
The rider’s ability and his mechanical skills form the basis of riding safety. It is advisable to practise riding in areas
without traffic until you have become familiar with the vehicle and its controls.
Being aware of one’s limits
When riding, never exceed your limits nor those imposed by law. Being aware of your limits and acting accordingly
will help you avoid accidents.
Adverse weather conditions
Be very careful when riding in adverse weather conditions. On wet roads, for example, the braking distance increases as a
resultofreducedtyretraction.Itisthereforenecessarytotravelatmoderatespeedandavoidabruptbrakingandacceleration.
Payparticularattentionwhenridingonslipperysurfacessuchasroadmarkings,manholes,levelcrossings,bridges,gratings,
etc. Considering that a motorcycle cannot provide the same degree of shock protection as a motor vehicle, it is essential to
adopt a “defensive” riding attitude, particularly in the adverse weather conditions described above.

Tornado Naked Tre 1130

When riding down long hills, reduce the speed of your motorcycle by closing the throttle and using a low gear ratio
to take advantage of engine braking. Use the front and rear brakes as little as possible to maintain your speed, in
order to prevent brake overheating and fade.
Special attention should be given to the braking system, which plays a key role in ensuring safety. When braking,
always take account of the speed of the vehicle and the condition of the road surface.
The braking action should always be applied gently and gradually to both wheels.
Performing this operation and, more in general, riding the vehicle always requires the utmost care. Therefore,
caution should be exercised by all users, and in particular by inexperienced riders.
When you make a turn, avoid sudden braking. Failure to observe this warning could lead to the sliding of the wheels
and the loss of control of the vehicle. Always operate the brakes before starting a turn.
When you are laterally blown by a sudden gust of wind (as it may happen when you’re overtaken by a vehicle of
greatdimensions, when you come out of a tunnel or when you’re driving in a hilly zone), you could lose control of the
vehicle. While driving under the above mentioned conditions, reduce your speed and be careful to avoid sideways
gusts of wind.
Maintain a safe distance behind vehicles in front of you and adjust your speed to the weather and traffic conditions.
Remember that, as your bike picks up speed, stopping distances increase and the motorcycle becomes more
difficult to control. In any case, never exceed the speed limits imposed by the Highway Code.
It is strictly forbidden to drink alcoholic beverages or take drugs before riding. Even very small amounts of these
substances adversely affect the rider’s ability to control the vehicle.
HELMET
Wearingthehelmet whenyou ridea motorcycle in many countries,including Italy,is compulsory. However, wherever
this obligation doesn’t exist, it is absolutely advisable to wear a helmet, taking care of choosing a homologated and
of the right size one. If the helmet has no visor take care of wearing appropriate protective glasses during your
riding.
The helmet has to be always laced up. If you carry a passenger you better make sure that he wears correctly a
homologated helmet. Never wear light helmet DGM (they can be used in Italy only for riding mopeds).
2.1.6 Protective clothing
Always wear suitable protective clothing.
In particular, the following items should be worn:
• A close fitting jacket, made of tough material and easy to fasten.
• Supple, reinforced gloves providing both sensitivity and protection.
• Strong, close-fitting trousers covering the legs completely.
• Soft, reinforced boots providing both sensitivity and protection.
In any case, the clothes must allow complete freedom of movement and not hamper the rider in any way.
In addition, they must have no loose parts capable of catching in the control levers, the footrests, the wheels, the
drive chain, etc., in order to avoid dangerous situations.

2.2 Safety - Visual and acoustic signals
Before each ride, it is essential to verify the operation of the visual and acoustic signals.
WARNING
Protective clothes do not afford complete protection against the risk of personal injury in the
event of an accident. It is therefore essential not be deceived by the false sense of security that
you might perceive by wearing protective clothing. When riding, always adopt a cautious attitude
and follow the recommendations given in the previous paragraphs.
2.1.7 Suggestions against theft
Your TORNADO NAKED TRE 1130 is a precious property and, like that, it has to be protected.
• Every time you park your motorcycle, operate the steering lock and remove the ignition key.
• Park your motorcycle in a closed garage every time it is possible.

4.3 Running-in
Failure to observe the indications provided below can reduce performance and shorten the life
of the motorcycle.
Running-in is generally considered to apply only to the engine. In fact, it should be regarded as an essential phase
for other important parts such as the tyres, the brakes and the drive chain. During the very first miles, adopt a
relaxed riding style.
km
0 to 500 Km
(0 to 312.5 mi)
500 to 1000 Km
(312.5 to 625 mi)
1000 to 2500 Km
(625 to 1562.5 mi)
rpm max.
5000 rpm
7500 rpm
9000 rpm
IIn particular, observe for the first 2500 km (1600 mi) the max revolutions number indicated in the table.
After the running-in period, above 2500 km (1600 mi), the engine is “hot” and can be run to its maximum speed.
NOTE
New tyres must undergo a proper running-in period to reach their
complete efficiency.Avoid abrupt acceleration, turning and braking
during the first 100 km (62,5 mi). Failure to observe these
prescriptions can lead to the sliding of the wheels and the loss of
control of the vehicle with subsequent risk of accidents
