    I m from chennai and our sales rep said lik it Ll take 3-4months for the ABS model to come
    Congrats on your new ride Vikesh, the bike looks stunning in white :-) Have you given him/her a name yet? Not sure about Chennai but ABS available in Bangalore, waiting period maybe 45 days more or less.

    P.S. - Need higher quality pictures please, doesn't do justice to the bike otherwise.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Need Suggestions:

    1). Helmet
    2). Riding Jacket
    3). Riding Boots
    4). Riding Gloves

    --> Looking for Really Good,durable,waterproof,fireproof(ok thats asking too much), mildly fire resistant gear which has already proved its status in the market. Honestly I have noo idea as to where to start looking for the premium stuff.

    -My current thoughts for the helmet are LS2 -- Is that a good helmet?

    -The showroom has Armoured Jackets for sale for around 6.5K (Benelli Jacket) not sure if its good enough or you get better than that.

    -Boots... Hmm thinking of searching online.

    -Gloves for now I have scoyco which I think should do the job but I would definitely like to know if better options available.

      They are denying that. Mostly...the once without ABS, you would not be able to fit ABS on your bikes

          Helmet:
          I am using MT it's comfortable than ls2 which I was using previously
          Jacket:
          Saw the jacket in Benelli which is good but that colour I didnt lik so I got Helios 2 with d same safety standards.
          Gloves:
          My friends preferred me to get aspida and I m much satisfied with that.
          Riding boots: even m searching [emoji51]

              Just checked with the Goa SVC, said they received an email that the bike will launch end of May and units will be dispatched ASAP after the launch. I hope my plans still coincide with this or else will have to wait till August.

                  Cool man, thanks for the suggestions - I'll check em out

                  ----consecutive posts auto-merged-----

                  Check out this Windshield Mod, Looks mental IMO! Much needed wind protection, not sure if this is available in India & I'm sure you can fit this on the 600 as well - all fittings seem to done proper and it looks sturdy.

                    The windscreen you see here in not a stand-alone mod. Its a complete swap of the headlight assembly. The stock assembly has been replaced by assembly of 899 trek. There is no straight fit as of now available for 600.

                      Isn't the bike itself 899?

                              Tough luck to you & other future GT owners buddy. Nothing worse than waiting for Your beast to come home

                              I guess mainly because the demand for the nakeds are much more than the GTs, they might be taking this ABS project with 600i models first. But no worry --- After all its only a matter of a month or two and then you will have your Dream in the flesh :-)

                              Another good news is with IXIL exhaust your fuel efficiency might drop about 2 to 4 km depending on riding which is killer cuz those exhausts are MADD!! You also have many brands to check out other slip on exhausts. (Would you get bored of the growl on the long run??)

                                the wait is always killing.
