Benelli has unveiled the new TRK502 and TRK502X adventure motorcycles. Both the ADVs have been announced for the market in the USA where they will be sold via SSR Motorsports/Benelli dealerships.
Price
The new Benelli TRK502 has been priced at USD 5,999 which converts into INR 4.42 lakh whereas the more off-road focussed TRK502X demands a slight premium and has been slapped a sticker price of USD 6,399 (INR 4.72 lakh).
Engine
Both the new Benelli TRK502 and TRK502X share the same 499.6cc parallel-twin engine. It is a liquid-cooled motor which features a DOHC setup and comes with 4-valve per cylinder. Benelli has tuned this powerplant to deliver power and torque in a wide rev-range enabling riders to ride through diverse road conditions with ease. For the transmission, both the TRK502s have been incorporated with a 6-speed gearbox.
Features
ArrayThe new Benelli TRK502 and TRK502X feature 50mm thick USD forks at the front with a travel of 134mm whereas the suspension duties at the rear are handled by a monoshock that comes with pre-load, compression, and rebound adjustability. While the TRK502 gets 17-inch cast aluminium wheels with 120/70 and 160/60 tyres for a smooth and efficient ride on the tarmac, the TRK502X comes fitted with 19-inch up front and 17-inch rear wire-spoke wheels for more off-road capabilities.
