    Maybe one of your could enlighten me more?!

    Thanks
    I'm yet to come across a single unit which has run a piggy back system successfully on a T3

      Technically there isn't any change on ur existing ECU. This is a piggy back system. And switch able between stock n this is just a change of cables.

          Does it imply that you have seen unsuccessful attempts to it? Please share details.
          Being on two wheels is being liberated. The vastness one feels being under the open sky. The whole feeling. . . cant be described.

          Ride safe, Ride long.

            Nope, neither. These guys had contacted a few owners to test their units on our bikes. I had signed up on their website too... No response after that.

              This Piggy back system cost 22000+1000 for installation in Mumbai Powertronic dealers.But there are few people those who are technically sound about T300 recommended not to install such system as it may damage the valves as these systems are good for square shaped engines like KTM and R15.Plus T300 Engine spare parts cost like a Bomb so it would be little risky to experiment with T300.

              Want suggestions​ from the group???

                Hope all is well at your end. Hope all are enjoying their Tornado machines. I was sitting idle and then I thought of using this time to put down my experience of owning Tornado.
                On 24th April, my Tornado will be celebrating his 2nd Birthday. For last 6 to 7 months, he is having a laid back time in the garage with occasional rides around the city.
                And, I am using this time indulging in fitness routines and dreaming about my next big ride with my Tornado.

                Last two years minus last 6 months have been unforgettable and crazy. Pressing the rewind button now.

                ...


                Enjoy your rides brothers. For more hit on:

                Short one

                Hey mate. Congratulations on your two year ownership! Glad to see you reach this point. I've been an avid follower of your travelogues and ownership of the TNT300. Two years ago when I was considering the TNT300 you put up your ownership thread and for the lack of better words, I felt god had sent me a guinea pig. I have benefited a lot from your ownership experiences, so kudos to your skill at documentation. I wanted to use your experience to decide if I could get the TNT300 and after all, I was able to use the same to decide that the TNT300 was not my cup of tea. Again, thanks for being frank, open and detailed in your documentation.

                Here's to many many many more kilometres, years, experiences, travelogues and the best of luck and health to you mate. You've been an inspiration and a joy to follow! *Clinks glass*

                    Hello everyone!!

                    I've been a silent follower on this thread as well as travelogues from last 6 months, gone through each and every page.
                    This is my first ever post so please bare with my writing skills.

                    I would like to thank every member for sharing their experience and feedback which have played an important role in making a decision. Especially experimentalhead, broken binil, Kevin for their prompt replies on PM.

                    I have booked my TNT 300 Black. Awaiting delivery.
                    Showroom guys are very friendly yet professional. They are aware of what they are doing. They have become more customer centric, in fact they offered me a long test ride before even booking a bike.

                    Update on AMC - As per my today's discussion with sales guy, they have stopped offering AMC packages for time being (not permanantly) because of GST complications.

                    I will revert with photos and detailed buying experience once I get a delivery.

                    Thanks.

                      Hi ABP,

                      First of all congratulations on booking your new beast.
                      If you are in Pune, you are lucky as Pune has the best service center for Benelli.
                      Facility is top notch. I had taken my Tornado couple of times, for simple jobs like chain tightening and lubing along with coolant top up, during my rides to Ujjain and Rann of Kutch.
                      Service center folks were great.
                      You will certainly miss presence of the ex-manager, Roshan, who was and is very knowledgeable and a great guy.
                      I hope his replacement is also equally good if not better.

                      Please do a detailed PDI before delivery and call out any concerns to the sales folks. I am sure you will not find any glitches or niggles.

                      Keep us updated with your experiences.

                      Ride safe. All the best

                            Hi Guys today I have noticed that my bike is slightly pulling towards left side at speed below 40kmph when I am leaving my hands off the handle bar, is this natural with all 300 or this is the problem with my bike only??

                              This isn't normal ... Get it checked please.

                              Possible Issues -
                              Incorrect Tyre Pressure
                              Cone Set/Stem Nut is loose.

                              Handle /fork out of alignment bent due to a fall.
