TNT 25 is equipped with a 249cc, single cylinder, 4-stroke, DOHC, liquid cooled engine that churns out a maximum power of 28.16 bhp at 9,800 rpm with a peak torque of 21.61 Nm at 8,000 rpm. The mill comes mated to a 6-speed constant mesh gearbox having a 1-down 5-up setup. Built on an exposed trellis frame, this quarter-litre machine draws its visual appeal from its siblings. It features many street fighter like characteristics including exposed body frame, minimal bodywork and a sculpted fuel tank. The Italian bike maker has not compromised on the comfort as well and has equipped it with inverted telescopic forks up front and mono shock absorber at the rear for carrying out suspension duties.
