    Test rode and fell in love

    My thoughts (purely personal. No offence ):

    Looks: Simply beautiful and elegant, especially in flesh. Black with red combo is the best looking according to me.
    Fit and finish: Superior to others in this class
    Performance: I felt, this bike is apt for touring. It just glides over tarmac. I am 100% sure, one can cruise at 100+ all day long and whenever you have adrenaline rush, you can rip. Engine is extremely refined. Braking is fantastic. Suspension is plush. Tyres are awesome. I booked 300P, P for Pirelli. No ABS is the only con according to me.
    Comfort: Best in class. Rider and pillion seats are too good and comfortable. riding posture is something which does not put any strain on your body. So, happy mile munching.

    Many said pricing is on higher side. I too felt so at first. But, at times, quality does not come cheap...you see and moreover road tax blah blah blah is very high in Karnataka compared to other states...I don't know ranking though

    LAST BUT NOT LEAST: EXHAUST NOTE IS RIDER's WET DREAM
    Congratulations on the booking! Do start an ownership thread as soon as you get the bike.

    One more thing, Can you please post how the bike behaved in bumper-to-bumper traffic? Does have have enought low end grunt or does it stall?
    The way you ride is the way you are..

      I test rode the bike in bumper to bumper traffic and that's what impressed me the most. It was sweltering hot at the time of test ride and engine did not show any signs of stalling or heating. It easily moved around and exhaust note was still sweet. It also easily soaked up the road conditions...u know how our road conditions are.

                  Yeah...Number plate is a whack-job. I dont know why foreign bike makers make such crap design of Saree-gaurd or number plate placement. Leave those to us, we''ll do it better.
                  Congrats again on your booking buddy...what color by the way ?

                        Oh they have been delivering the bikes already.. i think the first delivery they made was for the owner of either a showroom or the dsk group itself, i cant remember. They delivered a TNTR 1130 as the first sale. plus they have delivered over four tnt600i bikes in ahmedabad
                        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.

                          Congrulations bro! The black and red combo is definitely the best color on the 300. But that number plate placement, looks like a moustache on the bike
                          Did they mention the delivery dates?

                            Thanks Buddy number plate misplaced for sure on test bike. Delivery, as per showroom manager, would take approximately 10 to 15 days.

                                I was supposed to get the delivery of TNT300 by tomorrow...now deferred to couple of days letter. The TC is now with the showroom so the registration will be done as well. As per the showroom they have delivered 3-4 TNT300s so far & also I saw few TNT600GT & 899 ready for delivery last week.
                                Also I'm getting some uncanny discount (~Rs.20000) on on road pricing. Anybody has idea if the prices have been slashed?
