    Booking my TNT 300 tomorrow. I loved the bike but was still skeptical. The comments and posts here helped in finalizing.
    Welcome aboard!
    I'm curious to know what time period they mention to you for delivery and also if there has been any price change. Do let us know. Just curious.

          Hi Everyone,
          Writing for the first time usually use to only read the reviews.
          I had an opportunity to test ride the bike really liked it and will buy it as soon as the rains stop. I read some points above about the oil change, and i am a bit confused now. can some one explain does the bike really needs oil changes every few months, do all higher capacity bikes need it as this will be my first bike which is above 150 cc.
          As I gaze upon your beauty, I think to myself, "never have I seen an angel fly so low".

          Yamaha RX100, Yamaha RD350, Bajaj Pulsar 150, Honda Unicorn, Yamaha FZ16, Suzuki Gs150r, Honda Dazzler, Suzuki Gixxer, Benelli TNT 300, Yamaha R3

            Whatever it it, you will have to stick to the company's recommendation. Should have been like 6 months or 6K.

                Thanks Guys.

                Will be going for the black with red frames. Any idea how many TNT 300s in Bangalore ?

                And i would probably be looking for an after market wind deflector ... Any one has any leads as of now ?
                Also the crash bobbins ... The showroom guys don't have them as of now !!!
                i don't have a carbon footprint, i ride everywhere !

                  There must be many in Bangalore by now. Official numbers can be given showroom.

                    Nice color choice by the way. I am also going for the same combo, but for a different vehicle though 600.

                    IMO, the accessories from the showroom are a tad costlier and i would recommed you to get the aftermarket items from elsewhere and get it fitted by the SVC guys..

                          Have been only reading posts mostly and then I went off line for sometime. Getting my own bike now after a gap of around 2 years. My R15v2 was stolen around 2 years back. Been riding since 1999. The last two years I have been hopping bikes as i'd beg, borrow or rent a bike for rides.

                          Plan to be more active now

                              Guys, anyone have any idea about a aftermarket wind screen for TNT 300, I got one on an online shop for 8999 bucks but that is a Puig aftermarket for Duke 390, thinking of screwing the same on to the stock wind deflector. Please put in your thoughts.

                                You can reach out to Ritesh Ved on facebook from Hyderabad who is sourcing accessories for Benellis. He himself owns a GT.
                                How did I get to know about him. Through Benelli owners Bangalore facebook page.
