There has been much hullabaloo about the upcoming middleweight adventure bike from Benelli, the TRK702. Well, now, the Chinese-owned Italian motorcycle manufacturer has unveiled the bike in all its glory. Released initially in the Chinese market, the TRK702 shares a lot in common with the bigger TRK800, and on paper, at least, seems to have what it takes to take on the likes of the Yamaha Tenere 700 and KTM 790 Adventure head on.
For starters, the styling of the TRK502 carries over heavily with the new TRK702. The bike's relatively athletic attitude is aided by the huge front beak, the prominent tank, the exposed trellis frame, the two-level saddle, and the slim tail. It has, however, been furnished with upmarket components such as a fully digital TFT instrument cluster. Additional creature comforts find their way into the mix, too, and stuff like a heated saddle and grips, and a nifty front-mounted camera will surely come in handy, be it for the seasoned adventurer or the rugged city-dweller.
