Riding experience is amazing and sound of the bike superb...Even for others, the so-called 'born-again bikers' who want to get back into motorcycling after a break, it's this class of motorcycles which holds appeal - not too expensive, decent and sporty looks, and entertaining performance. It's a segment which is looked at not purely for performance, but as a combination of good looks, decent performance, touring ability and an attractive price tag.

    Awesome bike nice and comfortable, sturdy feel more planted in highway.Dual purpose bike, can be ridden in highway in city. U can ride this bike from 25 kmph in 6th gear all the way to 180kmph. Pickup lesser than all 300cc bikes but very tractable motor and low torque is adequate for city drive.Rev hard to get the nuts out of it and the rev needle easy passes 12k rpm limiter. For the exhaust note comparison, no cons will let u back from buying this bike.

  • Race partner 302r - honest review after an year of usage

    4 years ago


    Abhishek

    Even tough the price looks a bit higher but you wont feel it, once you own it. It is generally misinterpreted to be a big bike, best in class sound, you can feel that race punch of both torque and barrel noise once you hit the 5000 rpm mark.This can do way more than any other 300cc bike of the segment. Using it to its max utility and power is something tough to achieve. Great looks, superb sound, ultimate comfort n hell lot of enjoyment.

  • Perfect musical tune stock exhaust

    4 years ago


    Dandibhotla Raviteja

    The perfect review of mine is...If u want a perfect musical tuning machine in the 300 segment....This one is the perfect bike matches to u and gives us a sporty feel while riding amongst all the 300 cc segment bikes....The pickup is awesome and the ground clearance is too god for city rides....Loved the seating posture on this bike....While u r doing corners it gives a better center of gravity and balance too....As we already know about benelli....Benelli is perfectly suitable for exhaust.......After the 5000 rpm...U can notice a wide range of sporty feel,sporty exhaust sound.....The abs is both switchable to off or on....The breaking system is awesome....The stopping distance is so minimum.....Whatever the rpm is...U cant find any vibration from the bike....

    really fantastic to ride for long I was unstoppable from Bangalore to Mumbai I traveled in one day without any break but I filled full tank for thrice and last it was half tank left according to me it gives a mileage of 28-30 and without any spots it went that much far nearly 1052 kms and maintenance is also reasonable and super riding comfort.

  • A good bike to ride on highways and for enjoying tours.

    5 years ago


    Noel Mecwan

    First of all i will write about the buying experience of mine. It was very easy for me to buy this bike as it was available on time and also the sales executive at the dealership was very helpful. Secondly writing about riding i want to tell that it feels very good to ride this bike on highways but it is not comfortable when driving in the city due to higher weight and higher clutch effort required, a slipper clutch would have solved this problem. Talking about looks and performance this bike offers is that it looks very attractive but acceleration and braking performance is compromised due to more weight of the bike. Also it costs you more at the time of maintenance because of costly parts and unavailability of stock in some dealerships. Pros of this bike are good looks, good engine sound, rev happy engine, good handling. Cons of this bike are higher weight, high clutch effort required, led headlights missing, full digital/lcd/led instrument panel missing, poor brakes in terms of feedback.

    Its a comfortable sportbike unlike others which can use for daily purpose and has no problem with long distance riding too.You will enjoy and love riding on this bike as its come with a comfortable pillion riding too. Sound comes with a great outcome other than those 300 cc bike and the fuel economy is good too for a 300 cc bike.

  • The Real review Fact-file

    6 years ago


    Tiger

    Buying experience-
    bad.. as the bike was not available at my place pune and i had to go n buy it from other city.
    I rode it 300 kms on 1st day itself from that city to my place. I have ridden many superbikes for such a stretch but this bike is awesome on ride quality n suspension. No pains at all, neither up the back nor below it (u know what i mean..) unlike R3 and ninja 300 who have dedicated track riding stance and track focused stiff uncomfortable suspension.
    Ride -
    Many riders say its not a track tool, etc etc.
    How many of 150 crore Indians get to ride on tracks... So why worry whether its a track tool or no ..
    90 percent of our life we ride in non-track city conditions and for that this bike is a superb handler. Just think how convenient it is to ride a city touring bike having ABS specially when there are a 100s of over-smart drivers and adamant walkers crossing the road or turning without any signalling, indication or even hand gestures. I think that's what counts. A powerful 38 bhp city tourer with front dual disc ABS.
    And for speed lovers, track warriors and experienced critics here are some stats -
    R3 weighs 169 kg and tops at 175 kmph
    Ninja 300 weighs 172 kg and tops at 175 kmph
    302R weighs 198 kg and tops at 173 kmph
    So who's the more powerful puller you see. 173 top speed with 198 kg weight since others with 30kg less weight are doing only 2 kmph extra top speed.
    Looks and sound -
    i do agree that the tail does not match the excessively large front head in size and height.
    But yet....
    Its a head turner with its looks in public even when its on idle mode on red signals not making any revv sound..
    And when it crosses 5000 rpm, it just roars like a 1000cc in-line 4 and that's where you start feeling your heart revving and that you have spent every penny well on this beast.
    Now the golden Indian question -
    Kitna deti hai
    Frankly speaking it does not matter but fir bhi..
    For Good boys 25 km per litre..
    For city street ego racers 15 km per litre..
    Servicing and maintenance -
    Come on bros its a superbike. Its ought to be and it is costly.. Just ignore cost and focus on the ride..
    Pros -
    Front looks like a 1000cc bike.
    Best exhaust Sound.
    Very good Handling n suspension.
    Front dual disc n ABS.
    Engine cuts off if side stand is down when you engage the gear so that the bike should not fall if at all u have forgotten to pull up the side stand b4 starting the ride.
    Cons -
    hard clutch lever.
    Small tail. Needs to have wider tail n height of tail also needs to be more.
    Dashboard very less informative.
    The build quality is very Indian -- its very obvious that its assembled in India with the un-finished surfaces and un-polished welding marks everywhere on the bike.
    Frame Sliders and other important accessories not available with authorised dealers.
    Spares also not available on time with authorised dealers.
    important tips -
    Use high octane petrol..
    See to it that you have a slim girlfriend to sit behind since you already have 198 kg bike to handle and balance ..

  • Sweet inline sound super tourer and super head turner

    4 years ago


    Chris

    Awesome bike nice and comfortable, sturdy feel more planted in highway.Dual purpose bike, can be ridden in highway in city. U can ride this bike from 25 kmph in 6th gear all the way to 180kmph. Pickup lesser than all 300cc bikes but very tractable motor and low torque is adequate for city drive.Rev hard to get the nuts out of it and the rev needle easy passes 12k rpm limiter. For the exhaust note comparison, no cons will let u back from buying this bike.

  • Race partner 302r - honest review after an year of usage

    4 years ago


    Abhishek

    Even tough the price looks a bit higher but you wont feel it, once you own it. It is generally misinterpreted to be a big bike, best in class sound, you can feel that race punch of both torque and barrel noise once you hit the 5000 rpm mark.This can do way more than any other 300cc bike of the segment. Using it to its max utility and power is something tough to achieve. Great looks, superb sound, ultimate comfort n hell lot of enjoyment.

  • Perfect musical tune stock exhaust

    4 years ago


    Dandibhotla Raviteja

    The perfect review of mine is...If u want a perfect musical tuning machine in the 300 segment....This one is the perfect bike matches to u and gives us a sporty feel while riding amongst all the 300 cc segment bikes....The pickup is awesome and the ground clearance is too god for city rides....Loved the seating posture on this bike....While u r doing corners it gives a better center of gravity and balance too....As we already know about benelli....Benelli is perfectly suitable for exhaust.......After the 5000 rpm...U can notice a wide range of sporty feel,sporty exhaust sound.....The abs is both switchable to off or on....The breaking system is awesome....The stopping distance is so minimum.....Whatever the rpm is...U cant find any vibration from the bike....

  • A good bike to ride on highways and for enjoying tours.

    5 years ago


    Noel Mecwan

    First of all i will write about the buying experience of mine. It was very easy for me to buy this bike as it was available on time and also the sales executive at the dealership was very helpful. Secondly writing about riding i want to tell that it feels very good to ride this bike on highways but it is not comfortable when driving in the city due to higher weight and higher clutch effort required, a slipper clutch would have solved this problem. Talking about looks and performance this bike offers is that it looks very attractive but acceleration and braking performance is compromised due to more weight of the bike. Also it costs you more at the time of maintenance because of costly parts and unavailability of stock in some dealerships. Pros of this bike are good looks, good engine sound, rev happy engine, good handling. Cons of this bike are higher weight, high clutch effort required, led headlights missing, full digital/lcd/led instrument panel missing, poor brakes in terms of feedback.

  • The Real review Fact-file

    6 years ago


    Tiger

    Buying experience-
    bad.. as the bike was not available at my place pune and i had to go n buy it from other city.
    I rode it 300 kms on 1st day itself from that city to my place. I have ridden many superbikes for such a stretch but this bike is awesome on ride quality n suspension. No pains at all, neither up the back nor below it (u know what i mean..) unlike R3 and ninja 300 who have dedicated track riding stance and track focused stiff uncomfortable suspension.
    Ride -
    Many riders say its not a track tool, etc etc.
    How many of 150 crore Indians get to ride on tracks... So why worry whether its a track tool or no ..
    90 percent of our life we ride in non-track city conditions and for that this bike is a superb handler. Just think how convenient it is to ride a city touring bike having ABS specially when there are a 100s of over-smart drivers and adamant walkers crossing the road or turning without any signalling, indication or even hand gestures. I think that's what counts. A powerful 38 bhp city tourer with front dual disc ABS.
    And for speed lovers, track warriors and experienced critics here are some stats -
    R3 weighs 169 kg and tops at 175 kmph
    Ninja 300 weighs 172 kg and tops at 175 kmph
    302R weighs 198 kg and tops at 173 kmph
    So who's the more powerful puller you see. 173 top speed with 198 kg weight since others with 30kg less weight are doing only 2 kmph extra top speed.
    Looks and sound -
    i do agree that the tail does not match the excessively large front head in size and height.
    But yet....
    Its a head turner with its looks in public even when its on idle mode on red signals not making any revv sound..
    And when it crosses 5000 rpm, it just roars like a 1000cc in-line 4 and that's where you start feeling your heart revving and that you have spent every penny well on this beast.
    Now the golden Indian question -
    Kitna deti hai
    Frankly speaking it does not matter but fir bhi..
    For Good boys 25 km per litre..
    For city street ego racers 15 km per litre..
    Servicing and maintenance -
    Come on bros its a superbike. Its ought to be and it is costly.. Just ignore cost and focus on the ride..
    Pros -
    Front looks like a 1000cc bike.
    Best exhaust Sound.
    Very good Handling n suspension.
    Front dual disc n ABS.
    Engine cuts off if side stand is down when you engage the gear so that the bike should not fall if at all u have forgotten to pull up the side stand b4 starting the ride.
    Cons -
    hard clutch lever.
    Small tail. Needs to have wider tail n height of tail also needs to be more.
    Dashboard very less informative.
    The build quality is very Indian -- its very obvious that its assembled in India with the un-finished surfaces and un-polished welding marks everywhere on the bike.
    Frame Sliders and other important accessories not available with authorised dealers.
    Spares also not available on time with authorised dealers.
    important tips -
    Use high octane petrol..
    See to it that you have a slim girlfriend to sit behind since you already have 198 kg bike to handle and balance ..
