DSK Benelli 302R (2017) : First Ride : PowerDrift 

Hello #NotificationSquad. Here are our first ride impressions of the Benelli 302R. Would you choose it over its competition?

This guy knows how to respect a manufacturer. And that product..

i know you guys usually don't do this , but i have been watching this video everyday from its day of release, The music score and the shots at 4:11, the location selection - I need a second ride or something maybe of the Red and silver variant. You guys need to do this - Cuz this is just mystical. Need one more surge of adrenaline rushing watching this bike again. And this is the 1000th comment

Power Drift is definetly the best youtube channel for motorcycle reviews

Without you PowerDrift is just a Drift...They lost their Power...Your review is outstanding...Your voice make me want to watch more but sadly you left... I hope You'll come back soon... 🤗

Benelli had a nice sound even with standard exhaust...

This is an example of a bike which is much more than just the 0 to 100 time or weight, and you will either love it or hate it. And if you love it, nothing else in this segment will do.

I just love the way you describe things mate. I love watching your videos the music the videography the editing every single thing is perfectly to its point.

Loved the bike and the video too and waiting for the comprehensive review to come seeing two videos in one day is epic PowerDrift rocks

Love the quality of the review more than the bike.

Amazing review! Visual + sound effects 👌

Okay, first of all, Sarge kills it when it comes to reviews!! And unlike most indian reviewers, Powerdrift has a way of telling people the pros and cons of the bikes/cars without sounding biased and that is one hell of a feat! I liked how the Benelli looks and sounds, but I think what it lacks basically is the reputation R3 and Ninja carry with them.. I don't know whether I should depend on Benelli when I can easily afford a Kawi or a Yamaha without much effort.

That silver/green combo is 🔥🔥

I can say that, its perfectly made for India. Comes with Abs as standard. And we all tourers want our bike comfortable rather than out right performance. R3/Ninja missed abs and the tyres and Adjustable levers too. Which Benelli gives at a pretty decent price. Instrument panel has always been a sore piont in Benelli. Request - Do a 2-3 day shootout between R3/Ninja300/tornado302. Make a review which is practical and helps the tourers to decide which one to go. Also mention Service intervals/spares cost and FE. As always PD rocks.

Sergeant is the hands down best bike reviewer I have ever seen ☺️

Never fails to astonish me. Your team is just simply amazing. Would love you work with you guys.

That bike sounds really well , and it shines in handling corners .

Die hard fan of benelli 302r😍

it really definately sounds awesome.. though and revving it feels so awesome.. pick up good too..

nice job done.honest review..n a brief introduction of bike.thank u power drift

You made the best review of Tornado 302R and I am big fan of this bike. You did a great job

the only thing i'm getting benelli bikes below 400cc is the sound alone.

3 things dat annoy me are ; 1. The weight - It affects initial acceleration & pickup. Not so good for city when riding & taking out of parking lot. 2. Service Network - For a bike dis pricey , the manufacturer must also have good service network & spare part availability which dis one misses . 3. Too Costly service .

An Italian beast on powerdrift... What more can a guy ask for?

Om Namo Powerdrift ;) You guys deserve Big Thumbs up, what a editing, camera work and all stuffs.

Thank you for Your Honest Review. Not Every One Does That. Under 4.5 Lakhs, Nothing can beat the Kawasaki Ninja 400 and the Rc 390.

gr8 review.m frm Nepal.I hv got the same colour 302r.its definitely a sports tourer.its luxurious n has less vibrations thn rc390.rc390 is a track focused bike.it has its own legacy.Jst done 2800+kms.riding solo I easily reached 149kmph in short distance,which I didn't expected due to its super heavy weight.it still wants to make u rev more, even in 149kmph.very stable bike.though brakes aren't tht gud.overall its comfortable and economic sportsbike.30Km+ per litre fuel economy.nice midrange and high range pickup.smooth ride.last week I reached 142kmph wit ease in double load.cudnt twist more due to traffic.till nw totally satisfied

I really like the look of the bike in this video than original look.. you guys are making awesome videos. very much addicted to this channel... eagerly waiting for g310r

Hands down to power drift..👏👏👏👏👏👏👏keep it up..

R3 is definitely a stunner in the 300cc segment, no way its near it. Do talk about the comparison of power delivery and ex showroom prices of all 300+ cc bikes.

Not bad at all. I think for casual highway rides, I will pick this over the others. It has got the Safety, Comfort, looks, perfect. I no racer, just love F1 on TV :)

On point as always! Kudos to the team once again 👍

Breath taking and adrenaline rush shots.. i would love to say its Top gear equivalent from India (Only Power drift Bike )

They should have kept it in range of 2.7 to 3 lakh for figures of engine outputs and considering hard competition and also service availability .... R3 is the best choice at this moment

I subscribed !!! Your reviews are on another level. keep it up.

Sagar Sir you were my inspiration you are my inspiration and you will always be my inspiration. I seriously like your style, dressing sense, talking accent and most of all your riding capability. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

step 1 : check power drift step 2 : like the video step 3 : play it

Benelli is a passing phase, true love is KTM RC :)

Fantastic review! Totally honest first impression n exactly what I felt when I test rode the bike! Love you guys! #PDarmy

You guys nail the videography every time ! I'm about to cry >_< bravo !! Those angles, the panning, slo-mo, editing, color grading..just Perfect

my Friend just purchased one...the Red Black variant...

Sound#look#and more importantly ABS**.. excellent bike other then r3 in performers....i wish if Yamaha adds ABS to the upcoming BS4 engine.....but I am in love with 302R

Was waiting for it! Very good review! Waiting for comprehensive one.

I love this channel and his explanation.. Big fan❤️❤️

I have an R3 but If it isn't for the weight I would gone for this bike, in Indian city riding a 200 kg bike is not practical

This man is doing wrong comparison. 302r is not a track machine , it's a sports tourer . So it's pointless to compare it with R3 or ninja. And as a entry level sports tourer it's the best one.

As always, a BLOODY good video 😎😉

#NotificationSquad ...The video title says "First Ride".. , but still much more comprehensive & entertaining than other review channels.. #PowerDrift .. the best team

If I have some bucks then I will definitely go with the benneli bcz it really sounds good.

If Suzuki sf old version and ninja paint scheme, had a child 👊

Sagar, you are an absolute superstar presenter. Much love from Adelaide

love the usd forks n more importantly abs

among ben 302r, r3, ninja 3 and rc 390... hands down to the sound of benelli motor..gives the feeling of that engine growls which is simply music to the ears. but... yes there is a but...unfortunately it doesn't perform​ as good as the other three.. Infact apart from sound there is nothing much I would like to invest on.. personal choice is r3 followed by Ninja 300 any day given these 4 choices...

0:12 badass scale model

Mr. Sagar and the whole PD team you are brilliant. -Reagrds

Thanks a lot for this review..

review at the speed of light!!! it was quick...

Please do a comparison between the Benelli 302r and the kawasaki ninja 300....I am confused which one to buy ...!!

Much awaited... Thanks Power Drift for another superb video

Hello PD army Just found on Google that avenger 375cc is in its testing frame and will launch in Diwali 2017 Love u PD army

I am from Nepal and I own the same silver green 302r 2018.Its a fantastic bike.i hd done 170 kmph with ease.No other bikes in it's segment gives you the feel of bigger superbike.gearbox is too lik a bigger superbike.it pulls even in 6th gear from the speed ok 30kmph.when you twist the throttle it sounds breathtaking.heating is managed verywell.solid build quality.smooth and stable in high speeds.gud mid-range pickup. yes it is unnecessarily heavy.almost 200kgs,though it performs verywell.Yo get the most luxurious feel in 302r.it isn't fully track oriented machine.its a lil superbike sports tourer.Its the most head turner bike in it's class

Well the R3 BS4 is here now and New Ninja 300 ABS is also on sale with Rs.80000 price drop - Plz make A Comparison Video !!

Excellent! No one does it better than you guys!😊😍

Wow.. top class bike review! I jus lov d bike color theme!

We need racing contest between rc390 ninja300 r3 and tornado hit like button

Please make video of maintenance cost and ownership review

Sproket modifications video anywhere ? Hell ya I will pick this up over the holy Trinity !

I like this video...less drama...more facts...more videos like this plz...cheers 😎👍

what if we tune it will it be as fast as the r3 the sound of this on the hill road will be

d most safe 300cc bike

I'm buying this bike end of december.. This bike is best.. Sound engine waooo..

If the upcoming R3 doesn't gets ABS then I would not mind having 3-4PS less power and torque. This will definitely be the choice. Awesome video guys 👍🤘

This is the most smoothest bike in this segment, absolutely zero vibes and engine refinement is out of this world, much better nvh level than ninja 300 and R3.

on second thoughts, why not 302r over the R3? not everyday is a track day, is it? how about a lazy ride on the twisties, in the perfectly blended company of monsoons and a brilliant inline twin note?! not bad, eh!

You guys do the reviewing thing really good..

Good job power drift... This is d best channel i ever had visited for reviews...

This is the Pulsar RS200 of it's segment.The power kicks in late,Heaviest in the segment, Versatile sports tourer,ABS and the sound.But,it doesn't do justice with the price for that matter.It could've been 50-60k less. P.S-R3 on any certain date.

I dont care about the power.. I just love the sound.. Will buy only for the colour skim and the sound..

this is it , powerdrift ❤ for a reason ❤

Clinical and Crisp review of the Tornado 302R - An Essential must watch for new bees trying to get a hand on quarter litre sports bike segment. I was personally waiting for R3 2017 hopefully with ABS but the future looked dark and unknown for it hence picked up the 2017 Duke 390 as i was coming from a Naked 200 NS and I am loving the highway runs on it. Ideally R3 and N300 should have atleast launched with optional ABS variant for the price they command..else it make more sense to be little more patient save little more and step into the middle weight segment At one end u have the KTM twins offering excellent VFM and on the other end there are the twin cylinder full faired bikes which do not justify the buying and running cost I infact did a detailed analysis of running cost for all bike from NS 200 to Z800 and the locally assembled KTM's made most sense..it was a no brainer

R3 is the King....... no doubt

look at that giant ass saree guard.😢

You never cease to amaze everyone!!

I was about to go somewhere but PD just uploaded a video!! I won't even miss a single video❤️love from nepal!!

Best Review video in the world ! every factories should beg you for their review videos ! And here's my little suggest: Why not just add some "Exhaust Sound Time" in your videos? Please go on,and make us more and more excellent videos!

Pulsar 220f lookalike

proud to be a part of PDARMY

Man I love the location than the bike. Very well presented

01:29 Pulsar 220? Anyways i just find this design of the bike some what weird from the side angle

No match to versatile ninja 300🔥

I loved the visuals ❤

Sagar sir so much love for you... are simply amazing... thanks for the great review

2018, still dreaming of buying this beautiful machine 💜💜💜😭😭😭

I'm. Buying it in October 18..saving money for down payment...right now having gixxer but I'm gonna buy it

Powerdrift please do a 300cc sport faired bike shootout consisting of The R3,Ninja 300 and Benelli 302r.

Sargent you are one awesome heck of a machine loving man ♥

very very genuine review.. I would personally never buy a benelli product... just for the sound I would never... I love all the other three bikes R3, ninja and rebellious RC ... but sorry not this one ...

benelli 302r all time is better look very nice

Thank you PD. (PTR) YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME... As always you are the best motorcycle reviewer. Waiting for the next Video, if possible please do include it's naked sibling TNT300.
