    overall performance of gt is quite promising though. it may seem slow but its not to be honest. especially at higher speeds, riding gt is more effortless as compared to our tnt. ofcourse due to wind blast. he was keeping up with us pretty well over all. i m sure he is happy with his bike, except for his experiences with the dealership.
    Hi, Thats sounds scary that panniers to come out on speed bumps ........ If possible can you elaborate what happened with the dealership? Cheers

      The panniers on the GTS are not troublesome till then time we follow the instructions (which are never made clear by the dealership). GIVI says that you should not cruise at speeds higher than 120kmph with or without the panniers fully loaded. I was at 170 kmph and went over a big @$$ bump. I have to give it to GIVI for the quality of the panniers - it didn't crack or break.

      It's happened with 3 riders across India (including me) so far. Rest the issues with the dealership in Delhi are now being addressed and they are responding well to our concerns and issues.

      Overall I'm glad I bought the GT.. its great machine much the 600i. What I crave for is a higher ground clearance as 150mm doesn't do justice to a heavy weight sports tourer. For those who want to evade any kind of damage to the cylinder and exhaust joint which is bolted under, you can get it moved up by the service center guys.

        Hi everyone! I'm from Goa and have been following this forum for a couple of months now gathering information from all your experiences with the 600i. I must say thank you to each one of you for being a big help in helping me zero in on this bike.

        Apart from the forum, I was also lucky to personally experience a ride on my close friend's bike who purchased his a couple of months back (The showroom here doesn't allow test rides). It was an experience that I'm very pleased with. The acceleration is just perfect for my type of riding, the initial low torque helps very much for city riding (our cities aren't that congested and very small anyways).

        Presently own a CBR250 and now will upgrade to the 600i. Booked a Black ABS version a few days back.

          Congrats, do post some pics, weird here in Chennai , I found benelli the only bike company to allow TDs on the TNT 25,300 n 600. I think above 600 , u gotta be serious about buying the bike or you've gotta book it, for TD on 899 n 1190 . Do post about ur experience, and also abs is coming in a few months I've heard too, personally this bike is the best in its price bracket, only competition is er6n which is meh atleast in looks, not sure about the feel, I've ridden a ninja 650r, n that was torquey as hell, also had a akrapovic

            Thanks Deathwing! I was informed the ABS models would roll out by the end of this month, and that the booking period is one month, hence the bookings are now open. Read above in some posts that they had to pay a booking amount of around 10k. Not sure if that's the case in most states but here its 1 Lakh. The OTR price for non ABS is 6.7 lakhs which is pretty high compared to other states. I was told here that the ABS would be around 50k additional. Hope they do get their stock by the end of the month, can't wait to saddle up.

            Will post about my experience after completing the run-in.

                  Hey there guys,

                  I've been worrying about this one thing hope you guys can clear it out ----

                  So I was supposed to have booked my Tnt600 by now, a week back to be more precise. Unfortunately due to weather I fell ill & When I called the dealership a few days back He said the booking for ABS is open and they are giving on first come first serve basis.

                  Talk about shitty timing for the flu. Anyways -- my worry is that the sales guy said that the Official proforma invoice for ABS is not out yet --- ??? So I asked him what about the docs for the bank and stuff -- to which he replied '' It's okay you can use this quotation(600i non-ABS) and at the time of delivery you can pay the remaining balance''

                  My question to the people who have booked the ABS ​version --- Can you tell me if this is okay or something wrong here? I mean shouldn't the invoice have the exact specifics of the bike?? Or can you do changes later in this type of situation ..

                    There is nothing wrong in it, only change is that the loan amount will reduce

                          I think the sales in Bangalore have crossed 600 or so, I'm sure they are running out of the base variants

                          Making space for the ABS versions now.

                          Oh BTW thanks for clearing the doubt, I'll go ahead and book this bike tomorow if they are open, or else monday.

                          Hmm, waiting period around 30-45 days ---- The ABS on road in Bangalore comes to somewhere between 7L - 7.1L

                              Our dealer confirmed there is no such option as of now.
