Although this shouldn't bother u at all but then if u want it fixed u can get out replaced under warranty
They fiddled around with the handle bar saying the alignment might be off. But didnt help much.
Not much of a bother, but at slow speeds the bike keeping tugging to either sides, doesnt feel stable.
Will ask them to check the T Stem as suggested. Thank you.
Also, I am new to Bangalore. Know of any place I could keep up chain cleaning and lubing solution?
I cant wait to finish the run in.

Re: Benelli TNT 300 Ownership Experience
I believe u meant picking up chain lube ? You can try MotoCafe in Ulsoor. I pick up my Tribocor Lube and Cleaner from there. You can give my reference.

Re: Benelli TNT 300 Ownership Experience
congrats on your new bike.Originally posted by Tarmac_Shark View PostGreat to see so many new 300 beginning brought. I recently got the black one. I have named it Alferdo the itanlian Butler. Hahahaha.
So far my experience has been amazing. The bike does everything you ask of it (therefore the name) and it seems to do it without any fuse.
The only niggle bothering me has been that my bike drifts to the ride side when i leave the handle bar. I have tried this at speeds around 60 - 70. Has anyone else faced this issue?
Loving it.

Regarding bike shifting to right side not sure about particular bike as i have not ridden it, in general from my experience i can say that to balance a bike without holding handle bars you need some time to get used to bike. Especially when bike is on heavier side (~200kgs), this had happened with me when i changed my bike, after riding few months i was able to control it and bike wont drift.
PS: Its based on my experience, might not be the case with others.

Re: Benelli TNT 300 Ownership Experience
I have not used it. But from what I heard, it does not sound great on 300 compared to stock exhaust. I also heard that it results in reduction of fuel efficiency. I have personally seen 600 with IXIL. Sounds out of the world. But yes, those riders did complain of drastic reduction in FE. But, if you are into touring, I guess such loud note may get on your nerves by end of a long haul.Originally posted by Shashank Suresh View PostI was just wondering if anyone has upgraded to the after-market exhaust IXIL ? If yes, how is it ?
Most importantly, is it really worth spending 25k for it.

Re: Benelli TNT 300 Ownership Experience
In city with Bangalore's crazy peak hour traffic, I got 23 - 24 kpl. On highways by keeping a sane cruising speed between 90-110 kph, I got 29-30 kpl.Originally posted by Shashank Suresh View PostOkay. Thanks for the reply
