Its already the second half. . just waiting on the big news ! and photos. . . . . . is it a boy or a girl?

re: Benelli TNT 600i - Onwers' Reviews & Experiences

Regarding the top speed of the 300, 176 is speedo or GPS/vbox?

It seems from the video that it is speedo. The video has been shared on the TNT 300 ownership review post and seems genuine. The bike pulls neatly post 140 in the 10000 to 11000 rpm.

Btw fellow 600 owners should take a look at these.



This aftermarket wind deflector on Aliexpress makes the bike look more mean.

So Fellas !!!!!!
finally my mate has accompanied me home yesterday.. I was too excited to post anything yesterday and I reached home a bit late in the evening so rest of the night was spent taking a sound sleep finally..

its ****ing RED !!! my favorite.. I cant explain the feeling in words but this can be considered as 1% of the bigger picture I am feeling right now..
btw, I was fortunate enough to get the second lot bike. seems like there has been considerable improvement in the clutch from the test ride first lot bikes.. its much ligher and in reach easily.
The sound..ohhhh... I just love the stock note already.. no need to exhaust upgrade as thjs sounds so sophisticated yet wild at the same time.. I dont think anything in this segment sounds as sweet keepin aside R6, well ofcourse we all know why it does so.. big grinnnn !! after all we have a detuned R6.
will be sticking the tand pad today already purchased. and waiting for additional stuff to arrive.

Rode it by myself from the workshop to dealership.. got pdi personally.. everyone please always check for coolant levels before taking the bike, mine was found less.

here are few pics.. will post more.. very soon..

It seems Sanket is busy enjoying his new ride:-)

Edited part: We posted the comment at the same time: Congrats sanket on the beafy ride....Ride safe:-)

Anyway guys had been for a test ride of the 600i here in Mumbai and here is my first impression of the bike ( a 5-6 kilometer riding experience:-))
I rode the 600i installed with the ixil exhaust...beginning with the exhaust..it is freaking loud and charismatic, one actually does not need a horn on the bike a little wring to the throttle and the world paves way for you. A true head turner in my opinion.
Anyway this was my first encounter with an inline 4 and i have been riding my ZMR since the past 4 years (52000 kms)
I got on the saddle and pressed the ignition, the outer world just cut off from me inside the lid. The initial pick up is a little louzy requiring a fair bit of throttle to be given to get the bike at a steady pace, but once its in motion the whole game changes. steadily increasing power n speed till 5k rpm, but once the beast touches the 5k mark and corsses it, the bike turnsintoa super powered nuclear missile and shoots like crazy i reached 151kmph in a matter of say 2 seconds...and i got scared. The throttle and clutch is a bit hard but that's a trait of the inline 4 i feel. Coming to the breaking power, i have been used to riding in a totally upright riding posture on the zmr, i felt a similar riding posture on the 600i but the footpegs werea little aligned to the rear and hence i wasnt much comfortable with the exact feel of the break. I did do a few hard breaking where the bike did slashed down its sppeeds but somewhere i feel that riding the bike above 150kmph on highways would really call for some confidence given in by the ABS. The biggest drawback i felt in the bike (personally) is the turning radius, the handlebar has a restrained turning radius and making U-turns is quite difficult, again its a matter of getting used to the riding style of the bike. The console is too simplen my opinion could have been a bit more interactive to give a little premium feel but does the work. Coming to the most important part the build quality of the bike. The bike is well built, the fibre parts do not feel cheap but are fairly premium. Please do not compare it with the n650 for known reasons this is an inline 4 for the price of the n650.

Final verdict: The bike is a beast post 5k rpm, it will just run outta control if your arent ready for the adrenaline rush. City rides on the bike will require some good getting used to part as i said that the handle bars do not turn much and cutting through stalled traffic would be difficult. Engine heat not too much and you cannot expect an inline 4 to remain ice cold ..it does get quite warm but manageable. Id soon be booking my beast without an ixil exhaust (it left me almost deaf after the test ride). The bike looks too beafy in person as compared to in videos and pictures. all in all my leap from a 17bhp ZMR to an 85 bhp 600i will require some time to be spent with the 600i because with great power comes great responsibility :-)

Ps: The above description is a matter of personal experience, im not expert to make universal judgement ....:-)

Wow Great !!. Congratulations Ride Safe. Please do post your reviews about the bike soon

re: Benelli TNT 600i - Onwers' Reviews & Experiences

First one to congratulate !

I know anything I say would not make any sense right now or even what you say to yourself or even if the God appears and says you anything

Congrats and happy hundreds of mile munching. An ownership thread and all the details is what the janata wants now

So when you sat astride her, did you remember the callousness of the DSK or was it all something that you felt happened in the distant past ?

Ride Hard ! Ride Safe ! Ride forever !

re: Benelli TNT 600i - Onwers' Reviews & Experiences

well I already congratulated you but since its a red hellboy you got delivered. Congrats again Sanket.. Ride safe.

hehe.. yes true.. but unfortunately its raining here today and I really dont want to get it dirty.. so will be keeping patience that i have already developed due to dsk [emoji14]
btw, your review is the closest one so far I believe.. The bike is mad. its surely a keeper as it solves a lot of purposes and is very comfortable being a sbk. the heating I can live with as its still less than my duke. and gets cooler in matter of minutes as you find a stretch. the turning radius is surely a bit big and considering the weight of bike its sometimes hard to move it from steady you wanna take a u turn tightly.. but while running I salute the gearing ratio and linear delivery. people might complain about the power lag, but I think we just need to learn the true benefits of it. Its the major factor that this bike is so comfortable and fun to ride. otherwise it sould have been just like any other sbk that keeps the rider engaged all the time and keep from having fun even while cruising.
rest I have to go through the runnin in.. lets see how it goes..
thanks a lot.. will do..
hehe.. you are quite right.. it was not easy..
i havent shared the whole story anywhere but even yesterday we had a hugr scene at the showroom.. thanks to my biker brothers who accompanied me and supported the scene. Nothing went out of control but it was quite a hassle but finally everything got sorted and they did a fair ceremony.. so while coming back home i had nothing in my mind. I wi try to forgive and forget whatever happened and hope for a better service from dsk in future.

Forgive but don't forget !

Remind them every time about the horrible experiences that you had during the purchase. Might get your service experience to better.
