    I have a snap of pricelist for accesories from showroom, let me know if any one interested. I will upload it.
    Yes it is loud and clear even after 2500 km, do not worry people still stare at Me when fan starts on signals...

    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?
    I am still checking if they fit...aliexpress is nice and secure do not worry have used it multiple times.

    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.
    Even after 2500 km I get 22-25 it depends upon your riding style. I love to rev my machine. Cannot hear that annoying knocking sound.

    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 !!
    Nope it shows all wrong bars once you reach end of the tank

    LOL true that...but I still think they have priced the accessories ridiculously

    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.
    Cool....

    Check out moto 101 behind ruby hall pune, they have good helmets and riding gear.

    I got my MT blade and spartan carbon fiber gloves with aspida jacket from them. Good on price and quality.

      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

      Thanks Alcalo !!

          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!!!


          .
          I agree with you as I bought large size(approx 1500/-) & felt comfortable, but terrible during driving as pulling clutch which is already a bit on harder side, pulls my fingers backwards. Now planning to cut tips of gloves, temporarily till I find new.
          So please test with gloves before buying. I now have to invest again in good gloves.

            Hi Puneet,

            Congrats as you will be booking Tnt 25.. Only care should be taken regarding actual delivery date of the vehicle and followup with them as they tend to not keep us updated regarding the status updates whether delivery will happen on time or is it delayed etc this what i have experienced.
            Thanks,

              Anyone looking for aftermarket exhausts for TNT 25 in Chennai, keep me updated, planning to fabricate a stainless steel free flow exhaust with a carbon fibre muffler within next month.

                I agree as mine was never delivered on committed date. Utimately order got cancelled, am still waiting for refund. But this is with Mumbai showroom which i believe will close due to management issues. Hopefully I get my money back.
                So finally took one available with full payment from thane. So I suggest make full payment if possible & block your chassis number.

                      Sir benelli only provides ixil for bn600i n TNT 300, since the TNT 25 is a new bike there is no exhaust in the market, but am planning to change that, already spoken to the benelli people,they were interested. Basically will be producing the exhausts thro Indus engineering in sidco industrial estate ekkaduthangal , my uncle owns the factory n company he manufactures go karts , crafts his own tanks, exhausts, fairings for track use,etc. If u have doubts about lack of brand name, he did up all the gixxer sf track bikes, right from the weight loss mods to the engine tuning to the exhaust.
