          That looks like a litre class! Or is it the angle which is deceiving
          is it 35HP or 36HP? whatever it ain't bad.

            These Italians sure know how to design a bike. Looks like a bigger capacity bike.

                      Cant dream about buying a bike. Damn there's a better model the very next day.
                      So I'm gonna stop dreaming and start saving money and buy one at last.
                      Till last month I was like Ninja 300, then R3, then BMW 315, now Benelli..

                        HAHA... Very good question mate. I wish I would wait for it. But I am sure its gonna cost a bomb.

                        HAHA... Very true... It's always better to buy the one you like, fits your requirements and falls under your budget... Once you start reading news and blogs about new bikes, you eventually get tempted to get it... We are not even sure if this is going to get launched in India anytime soon...

                        Why don't you get the TNT 300 (Naked)?

                            I'm not a big fan of Naked bikes. But may be I'll buy one* if it comes with a BMW logo 😜

                            * - Only if it has a tank capacity more than 10 litres 😂

                              Wish they sell it here in india.
                              Benelli currently doesn't have a fully faired bike in Indian market right?
