  • Do not buy this bike

    1 year ago


    Vihang Mhatre

    The bike performance is very good.
    But when it comes to maintenance it is too costly.
    Every now & then you will have a problem.
    When you have a service station 40km from your location very hard to find a spare part for Benelli in my location.
    The average of this bike can get up to 25kmpl. The only reason not to buy this is because of the service station.

    The showroom salesmen know all the complainants and still, they lie bout the bike.
    Good ergonomics for long highway rides, but not at all made city and off roads, even though claimed ground clearance is better than royal enfield, the double stand is at a height of just 50-60mm from the ground and hits even fr a minor bump in the city.
    Service cost is too high, and have to wait a lot for spares,
    I changed my brake pads twice, first at 6k kms and next at 14k.
    Due to the delay, the motor problem bike had to be towed to the showroom as there is no kick start at 13k kms.
    Now there is a front abs problem.
    And the major and dangerous issue is frequent alignment problems, cuz of rusting of spokes. I had to get the wheel aligned twice just within 15k kms.
    (summarising - brakes, spoke wheels, service cost, time-consuming services, no after-market spare parts, high rpm issue, and poor electrical wiring are the major issues).

    As i had ride this bike 3k kms i feel very good and comfort the main thing in this bike is braking is amazing as i seen many review in you tube about breaking is really true and one more wonder thing in this is vibration there is no vibrations this bike i had a to seep of 130 km/h even the is no vibration it does no feel that that your going in 100 kmph its just passes to 100 easily coming to engine as it is a 400 cc there is heating problem i gets too hot but the heat you can observe only when you stop the bike coming to millage i can assure your that the mileage will 30 km/l if you go for a long ride with the accurate speed that is 80 km/h it can easily give you 33-35 km/l
    As local rides in traffic it will be around 27-30 km/l that too it depends on your ride overall the bike was good one lagging point is the pillion seat there is some wt un comfort foot rest position could be un comfort if we go for long the shape could be in "z".

    All most everything is good i like the bike
    Coming to performance really great
    Looks was great
    But only the negative thing was mileage
    I am using the bike from 1month the

    And i also had a long dive the mileage is 35kml a part of mileage every thing is good
    And one more this the tire r tube if it was a tube less it looks more great and if he also upgrade it to alloys.

  • Think twice

    2 years ago


    Saradhi Naidu

    I am riding this bike since last November 2020. It’s near by 26k kms. I changed the clutch plates twice. First time 6k and 2nd time 25k. It’s heavy on maintenance and 2 times I changed disc pads, chain kit, back tyre, bearings, clutch wire etc and it’s nearly 50k so my suggestion is better think twice before buying and you will need patience to wait for spare parts. I am getting nearly 23 kms mileage per liter.

  • Never Trust Benelli.

    43 weeks ago


    Syed Sadiq

    Firstly, Don't fall for the false sales pitch from these guys. They just want to sell bikes all on false notes, the parts cost a lot just for reference Clutch plates costs around 7500 + 1200 for installation.. Which is crazy and the durability is very low .
    Maintanence is very expensive after 2nd service.
    I would not recommend this bike for daily commute.

    The bike performance is very good.
    But when it comes to maintenance it is too costly.
    Every now & then you will have a problem.
    When you have a service station 40km from your location very hard to find a spare part for Benelli in my location.
    The average of this bike can get up to 25kmpl. The only reason not to buy this is because of the service station.

    The showroom salesmen know all the complainants and still, they lie bout the bike.
    Good ergonomics for long highway rides, but not at all made city and off roads, even though claimed ground clearance is better than royal enfield, the double stand is at a height of just 50-60mm from the ground and hits even fr a minor bump in the city.
    Service cost is too high, and have to wait a lot for spares,
    I changed my brake pads twice, first at 6k kms and next at 14k.
    Due to the delay, the motor problem bike had to be towed to the showroom as there is no kick start at 13k kms.
    Now there is a front abs problem.
    And the major and dangerous issue is frequent alignment problems, cuz of rusting of spokes. I had to get the wheel aligned twice just within 15k kms.
    (summarising - brakes, spoke wheels, service cost, time-consuming services, no after-market spare parts, high rpm issue, and poor electrical wiring are the major issues).

    As i had ride this bike 3k kms i feel very good and comfort the main thing in this bike is braking is amazing as i seen many review in you tube about breaking is really true and one more wonder thing in this is vibration there is no vibrations this bike i had a to seep of 130 km/h even the is no vibration it does no feel that that your going in 100 kmph its just passes to 100 easily coming to engine as it is a 400 cc there is heating problem i gets too hot but the heat you can observe only when you stop the bike coming to millage i can assure your that the mileage will 30 km/l if you go for a long ride with the accurate speed that is 80 km/h it can easily give you 33-35 km/l
    As local rides in traffic it will be around 27-30 km/l that too it depends on your ride overall the bike was good one lagging point is the pillion seat there is some wt un comfort foot rest position could be un comfort if we go for long the shape could be in "z".

    2 years ago


    Ganesh

    All most everything is good i like the bike
    Coming to performance really great
    Looks was great
    But only the negative thing was mileage
    I am using the bike from 1month the
    Mileage is average 26kml
    And i also had a long dive the mileage is 35kml a part of mileage every thing is good
    And one more this the tire r tube if it was a tube less it looks more great and if he also upgrade it to alloys.

  • Think twice

    2 years ago


    Saradhi Naidu

    I am riding this bike since last November 2020. It’s near by 26k kms. I changed the clutch plates twice. First time 6k and 2nd time 25k. It’s heavy on maintenance and 2 times I changed disc pads, chain kit, back tyre, bearings, clutch wire etc and it’s nearly 50k so my suggestion is better think twice before buying and you will need patience to wait for spare parts. I am getting nearly 23 kms mileage per liter.

  • Never Trust Benelli.

    43 weeks ago


    Syed Sadiq

    Firstly, Don't fall for the false sales pitch from these guys. They just want to sell bikes all on false notes, the parts cost a lot just for reference Clutch plates costs around 7500 + 1200 for installation.. Which is crazy and the durability is very low .
    Maintanence is very expensive after 2nd service.
    I would not recommend this bike for daily commute.

    Maintenance cost is very high and spares are very very high price. If any part gets damaged, you need to sell one of the part of your body.

    As i had ride this bike 3k kms i feel very good and comfort the main thing in this bike is braking is amazing as i seen many review in you tube about breaking is really true and one more wonder thing in this is vibration there is no vibrations this bike i had a to seep of 130 km/h even the is no vibration it does no feel that that your going in 100 kmph its just passes to 100 easily coming to engine as it is a 400 cc there is heating problem i gets too hot but the heat you can observe only when you stop the bike coming to millage i can assure your that the mileage will 30 km/l if you go for a long ride with the accurate speed that is 80 km/h it can easily give you 33-35 km/l
    As local rides in traffic it will be around 27-30 km/l that too it depends on your ride overall the bike was good one lagging point is the pillion seat there is some wt un comfort foot rest position could be un comfort if we go for long the shape could be in "z".

    All most everything is good i like the bike
    Coming to performance really great
    Looks was great
    But only the negative thing was mileage
    I am using the bike from 1month the
    Mileage is average 26kml
    And i also had a long dive the mileage is 35kml a part of mileage every thing is good
    And one more this the tire r tube if it was a tube less it looks more great and if he also upgrade it to alloys.

  • Think twice

    2 years ago


    Saradhi Naidu

    I am riding this bike since last November 2020. It’s near by 26k kms. I changed the clutch plates twice. First time 6k and 2nd time 25k. It’s heavy on maintenance and 2 times I changed disc pads, chain kit, back tyre, bearings, clutch wire etc and it’s nearly 50k so my suggestion is better think twice before buying and you will need patience to wait for spare parts. I am getting nearly 23 kms mileage per liter.

  • Never Trust Benelli.

    Firstly, Don't fall for the false sales pitch from these guys. They just want to sell bikes all on false notes, the parts cost a lot just for reference Clutch plates costs around 7500 + 1200 for installation.. Which is crazy and the durability is very low .
    Maintanence is very expensive after 2nd service.
    I would not recommend this bike for daily commute.
