The Benelli 600 is very popular in China
Anything bigger cc 400-650 sells decent last few years |

Did anyone else notice that when SSR quietly rolled out the 302S in the USA, that it got an 18cc boost and an additional 5 horsepower? It's 300cc now instead of 282cc. The 302S also has more ground clearance, longer suspension travel, and a 160 rear tire instead of the 140 that the TNT300 has, all while gaining only 4 pounds over the TNT300. Also a LED projector headlight and some mild styling changes, along with a lower seat to maintain the 31.5" seat height.
I was thinking about finding a leftover 2017 TNT300... but the extra power and tire selection has me maybe thinking about the 302S instead. Charles. Last edited by ChopperCharles; 05-21-2020 at 10:38 AM. |

I had seen that bike added to the Benelli lineup, but did not check out the specs. I just assumed it had a more hardcore suspension, but was the same bike underneath. For selfish reasons, would love you to get any of the Benelli bikes; I already enjoy reading about your Buccaneer, so would definitely enjoy looking forward to your Benelli bike posts.

Reading up on it more, it also got redesigned coil packs, a heat shield between the motor and coil packs (coils were having heat-releated failures apparently), a redesigned water pump with a bearing (somehow the TNT version doesn't have a bearing) which is supposed to drastically increase the life of the pump, different air intake configuration, lower gearing (different rear sprocket) and ECU changes that bump up the rev limiter and provide more power.

I really want one... but there are two other bikes on my radar, the CSC RX4 and the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650. I'll have the cash to buy one of these outright in the summer...
