After showcasing it at the 2016 Auto Expo, DSK Benelli has finally launched the 302R in India at Rs 3.48 lakh (pan India ex-showroom). It is the first ever fully faired motorcycle from Benelli after the Tornado 1130. The Italian sports bike is imported from China and it comes as a CKD (completely knocked down) unit. The touch and feel of the entry level motorcycle is on par with its elder siblings from DSK Benelli.

The DSK Benelli 302R’s design is fresh and appealing, also hinting at the company’s design philosophy being inspired by the bigger Benellis, as can be seen from the dual headlamps and the fuel tank design. Apart from this, we also like the twin-pod exhaust with the buffed-alloy finish. Mated to a six-speed gearbox, the 302R is powered by the same sweet-sounding, BS4-compliant motor that the TNT 300 features: a four-stroke, liquid-cooled, in-line two-cylinder that produces 38.5PS @ 11500rpm with 26.5Nm of torque being generated at 10000rpm.

Apart from this the 302R also features the much-needed safety net of ABS, with a similar brake setup up front and rear. The front suspension is similar to the one on the naked TNT 300, while the rear will feature a mid-set monoshock linked to an all-new chassis, which has been designed from the ground up. Available at 25 dealerships across India, the 302R comes in three colour options: Red-Black, Green-White and Red-White. Stay tuned to this space as we will soon come up with an in-depth road test coverage on the 302R. Host of CNC parts and accessories available for the 302R across all showrooms in India.
