    My millions of thanks to all who shared their experience and views in this forum which helped me to choose Benelli TNT 300 (Rosso).
    I booked my bike on 16th Mar in Chennai and got delivery on 28th may.
    On my delivery day "Power Super Bikes' team did arrangement properly and on time they hand over the bike to me after explaining the details properly to me as i need to drive to my native which is 320 km away from Chennai.
    Till now i have completed 470 Kms. Once i complete my first service 1500 kms i share my experience .
    I need some guidance for Radiator grill ,how to protect tank paint and in this same forum i have seen Key chain label(whoever posted that key chain label can you Pls share your personal mail id i want one like that)
    Welcome to the family and congratulations on your possession.
    1. Radiator grill: Unless and until you get one that has very small holes, it would just be a cosmetic accessory. May be you should try getting a custom made one. I know a guy who ordered it from Ali Express and the fin holes were actually big. [MENTION=8878]brokenbinil[/MENTION] has a DIY where in you can find a mud-flap of a cycle being used. I am using that it works like a charm.
    2. Tank protector: Initially, I wanted to put a 3M PPF film on my tank but I have not done anything till date. Regular cleaning will keep it just fine.

    Let us know if you have any questions and we would be happy to answer them.

      What abt the foot pegs? Any way we can adjust it? The owners manual has nothing to educate us.
      The Brake and Gear Levers are adjustable at multiple points. However i have only fooled around with the Gear and Brake lever tips. The round rubber coated end. U can unscrew the ellen key bolt on that and twist it to position it as per your preference. Works well for most foot sizes. Try it and tell if it works for you, else will try and tinker further on the adjustment bolts and confirm.

      Regards,
      Binil

        I need some guidance for Radiator grill,
        It depends on your usage. If you are going to use 'Rosso' within the city & occasional riding on highway, the DIY by Binil should do the trick. But if you are going to use it extensively for touring which involves riding on all sorts of terrain & in rainy season then I suggest to use the grill as the stones, debris will be chipping off beneath the front tire & from other vehicles in all directions & over the period of use radiator fins are damaged causing a leak. And for 300 new radiator costs around 15k. Last time I came to know that DSK is coming up with the Radiator guard for 300 but still no news. For 250 it's pre-installed. You can do a DIY grill too, but just keep in mind that radiator is delicate part & you may need to take care while mounting & un-mounting the guard.
        how to protect tank paint
        If you are going to use the tank pad & if paying 6K for PPF is no issue then you can use PPF (DSk says that it will void the paint warranty but not sure if that's true as many car owners are using it as it saves the paint from nasty scratches). There will be edges of PPF which will be seen from up close but from far no one can make out the film. Alternatively you can use a soft cloth (malmal cloth) to slide it under the tank bag. I've seen couple of 300s from which the tank color is chipping off as well.
        and in this same forum i have seen Key chain label(whoever posted that key chain label can you Pls share your personal mail id i want one like that)
        You mean to say embroidery key chain?
        Hi Venkadesh,
        Congratulations! My replies are inline above.
        Few of us from Benelli Riders Club - Mumbai ( @vrock ) been to Palasdeo near to Pune, rode on the dry, uneven reservoir bed, motorcycle took it with ease, had to ride on foot pegs though.

                              Many RE users use it. Found at the most accessory shops. The price may vary. The person who sold me is a close friend of one of the Rider from BoG so got at a discounted price. The build is ok & works fine.
