Re: Benelli TNT 25 Ownership Experience

Hey guys could you suggest some bike covers... Please post any links for online purchaseing...

Re: Benelli TNT 25 Ownership Experience


Those protectors look very good! They definitely represent a good touch to the Italian design instead of the "generic" feel of the official ones.

Perhaps if you are currently investigating the specifications for the bolts of the frame sliders you could find out if they are compatible or not.

I have never buyed from Aliexpress before. How is your experience from that site?

Re: Benelli TNT 25 Ownership Experience

Hey guys, I would like to share my 250+KM experience. It's been 5 days since delivery and there is definite improvement with the engine, it's much smoother already.

Gear shifts have also got smoother but I feel the first gear engages pretty strong. Which I kind of find a little harsh but don't know if this is so with stronger engines.

Braking is good throughout but when riding with a pillion there could be better bite to bring the bike to a quicker stop. Probably must think about adding the front disc sometime in the future.

Tires are just perfect and along with the suspension and chassis balance corners are just too much fun.

Seats are comfy for both the raider and the pillion. Headlights and LED indicators are quite good but the idiots who drive with High beam always make it seem dull.

The rear view mirrors are good but if they had been a little wider, it would have been easier to get a better view before changing lanes.

Finally, fuel efficiency is what worries me at this point. It's about 20-21 Kmpl. I know this will improve over engine life, especially past 1000KM but Inwould like to know if it's similar to what you guys are getting or is it my driving style and driving conditions. To add details, my entire driving has been only in the city and it varied between mild - heavy traffic. Also I did have many bursts of acceleration from 20 to 70 kmph, Couldn't resist them you see.

Will get back with more updates as I drive and am looking for more details from all you guys. Thanks.

Re: Benelli TNT 25 Ownership Experience

I got one from Amazon @649/-. link below:

Auto Pearl - 100% Water Proof Red Blue Bike Body Cover With Mirror Pockets, Buckle Belt, Carry Bag For - Benelli TNT 25: Amazon.in: Car & Motorbike


It seems to be good quality. I am using it as piegons harass the bikes in my building with shit. So good way to cover.
Also Benelli provides parking cover but dont know the cost, but am sure will be expensive then this.

Disadvantage is due to winds the cover keeps on rubbing with paint parts which may lead to mild scratching( routine polish will remove these). But this is the case with any parking cover unless you buy cloth cover.

I remember the showroom guy mentioned that the max average you will get is 30-32kmpl, so what you are getting in mentioned conditions is appropriate. Should improve eventually. I dont think even on highways it will cross 35kmpl.

Re: Benelli TNT 25 Ownership Experience

Hi All,

Just a quick check with you all regarding the accuracy of fuel level indicator is it showing it correctly or it has mind of its own (read "error").
My bike's Fuel gauge has went for a toss i think so and will check for the same from SVC. Even if there is half a tank petrol is available it is showing only a single box on fuel gauge
and some times it displays three boxes but again one box is shown so i doubt that its not working correctly. And i also tried turning on the key after keeping the bike straight but still facing the same issue..
Can you all please confirm if you are bike fuel indicator is working correctly !!

Re: Benelli TNT 25 Ownership Experience

Maybe my comment may be too early, but When I took my bike from showroom last week, it was just 1 bar, I filled around 12-13 litres, bars went all the way up. Now after 100kms drive 2 bars have reduced, which means that it should be working fine. But will let you know if any concern.

That awkward moment when the sliders for a 300 CC is cheaper than that of a 250 CC

Re: Benelli TNT 25 Ownership Experience


Thanks GTDOM !! Yup sure..

Re: Benelli TNT 25 Ownership Experience

BY the way, I got a few non benelli accesories for myself.
Rynox Air GT jacket: Has 3 layers: air, cold, rain which are detachable. with shoulder & elbow cups. 8K approx.
Lazer Bayamo Helmet: I think one of the best cushions available in market. Also has air vents near mouth, top & rear. It also has sun visor attached inside, can be brought down with click. Overall satisfied with performance. No air noise till 80km/hr. 9K approx
Gloves: Local make, nothing unique., but looking for some good suggestions.

Re: Benelli TNT 25 Ownership Experience

#GTDOM can you please tell from where have you purchased riding jacket? And have you bought paddock stand?

Re: Benelli TNT 25 Ownership Experience


Digital fuel indicators are well known for not being very accurate (in general) no matter the make of the motorcycle.

Taking the above in consideration, I found that the "accuracy" of the indicator in this TNT is very decent.

In my case, when the tank is from full to half the bars are always displayed correctly.

When going from half to empty it's common to see that the bars are low at first but when the bike is positioned straight and the ignition is turned on the indicator finds the "real value" after a few seconds.

Specially when going from 1/3 of the tank (3 bars) to empty the indicator becomes a little bit "playful". It goes to two and after a few seconds it goes back to three and keeps it there for some minutes, then it repeats again.

Approximately 50 kms later the "playful" behavior of the bars is the same but now from 2 to 1 and in the next 50 kms from 1 to the blinking "E".

Once you understand that "playful and distinctive" behavior I find the digital indicator to be very accurate because when I"m within the range of the 1 bar - blinking "E", I refuel the bike and it accepts between 15 to 16 liters.

That's how my motorcycle works so I hope that you find my description useful

Re: Benelli TNT 25 Ownership Experience

Both Helmet & Jacket from https://www.outdoortravelgear.com/.

I have not got paddock stand. Not sure but benelli person mentioned it costs around 4500/-. Useful if you have a stilt parking.

Re: Benelli TNT 25 Ownership Experience

Thanks !! Regarding the paddock stand it is available in camp at Probiker for 3,000. If possible also buy paddock as it is useful in cleaning and lubing chain + to wash and clean the rear wheel..

Re: Benelli TNT 25 Ownership Experience

I have bought the,
ASPIDA Phaeton Short Cuff Mesh & Leather Gloves from Spartan Pro gear. It costs Rs.2,225.

It's been a week now and the gloves are great for city rides. The mesh keeps your hands very well ventilated and the overall fit is comfortable. Just make sure you either measure or take a ride with them because initial they gave me a medium which was ok but as soon as I started riding a few kms they were pinching my fingers too much But Moto 101 here in Chennai were great and changed them to large ones. Now they are just perfecto!!!


Also was going to buy a riding jacket but the storekeeper asked me to wait for 10 days since a new city ride friendly full mesh jacket with CE armours from Scimitar is coming. The drawback is it has no rain lining but the air flow is supposed to be the key factor.
