    May I ask how much you have clocked on this bike and how long since you owned it? Just want to see if that had a role in this incident.

    How did you come across this whatsapp group? Is there a separate Facebook group for Benelli owners?

      I have clocked 3200 km in two months. I don't think this has anything to do with what happened

        I have already escalated on DSK Benelli facebook page.
        It is concerning that a new bike is having these issues

          Thanks for sharing. I have already posted on DSK Benelli facebook page and yet to get any revert. Hope these things do not recur.

              We are all concerned about the quality at this juncture. However, I am not jumping to conclusions. I have already posted about my grievance on DSK Benelli facebook page. They have responded stating my concern has been forwarded to appropriate team and they would contact me ASAP. Let's wait and watch.

                  Did anyone in bangalore purchase tnt300 by finance?
                  If yes, could you please share the details?
                  they have a tie up with HDFC for Finance (12.9% interest superbike loans) in Bangalore. You can contact Farooq for more details : 8123555165

                  I had faced this issue with my R15v2 ... found that my cleaner used to scrub and wash the chains. Told him not to do that and never faced a problem since then. Also the salt content in the air is high in mumbai, that can also aggravate the issue.
                  i don't have a carbon footprint, i ride everywhere !

                      Sure buddy. 5 days and bike is in service center. Current update is parts have been dispatched and may reach either today or tomorrow. Noto pro sure though. I am running behind the service guys to procure parts and fix ASAP. I have already posted about poor RSA and spares availability on DSK facebook page.

                          Experience of these kinds really concerns the customer. Benelli should sort out the spares availability asap. Now even I am dead scared, I found this electrical fuse problem on another chinese motorcycle thread also. Lets hope this was a one off incident. As of now Mumbai showroom guys have been very supportive and helpful. Any problems with the 600??

                            I am seriously crossing my fingers now. I hope this is an one-off issue and doesnt creep to others.

                            I hope DSK-Benelli listens to these. Lets see what [MENTION=49942]experimentalhead[/MENTION] gets a reply from them.
