Benelli TRK 702

Which TRK 702 in France?

Benelli France, whose importer is Moteo, offers two versions of the brand’s middleweight adventure bike. The TRK 702, covered here, has 17-inch alloy wheels, Pirelli Angel GT road tyres and a 790 mm seat. The TRK 702 X (€8,299) gets 19- and 17-inch spoked wheels, dual-purpose tyres, longer-travel suspension and an 835 mm seat; it weighs 244 kg.

What is the 2026 model year?

Benelli France’s 2026 catalogue carries over unchanged the Euro 5+ version launched in 2025: same specifications, same colours. The move to Euro 5+ came with richer standard equipment:

• engine crash bars;
• a taller (60 mm more according to Benelli Italy) adjustable windscreen;
• heated grips and heated rider seat;
• redesigned seat and luggage rack.

The first TRK 702, Euro 5 compliant, was unveiled at EICMA 2022 and went on sale in the summer of 2023.

How much does it cost?

The manufacturer price is €7,999. As of 12 October 2026, Benelli France’s website shows it on promotion at €7,499, with no end date given, and offers the luggage kit for €1 more while stocks last. The Euro 5 version cost €7,699. The TRK 702 sells for €7,490 in Italy and €8,369 in Germany. In the United States, the page of importer Keeway America, which covers the Euro 5 version, shows both $8,499 and $8,299.

How good is the engine?

The 698 cc parallel twin (83 x 64.5 mm) makes 70 hp (51.5 kW) at 8,000 rpm. Benelli France’s catalogue quotes 68.2 Nm at 6,250 rpm, while its website and Benelli Italy give 70 Nm at 6,000 rpm. MOTORRAD states that the crankshaft has a 180° crankpin offset. The throttle is cable-operated: there is a single map, with no riding modes or traction control. The manual mentions a slipper clutch. For the A2 licence, the bike can be converted to a 35 kW version (47.6 hp and 58 Nm). Benelli quoted 180 km/h for the Euro 5 version, but publishes no top speed for the Euro 5+.

RevZilla finds it smooth and predictable, with a sweet spot around 5,000 rpm, and Bike Review calls it the star of the 702 X. Moto.it, however, finds it lazy at low revs; MOTORRAD notes that it needs revs and vibrates above 6,000 rpm.

How does it ride?

The chassis combines a steel trellis frame, an aluminium swingarm, a non-adjustable 50 mm upside-down fork and a preload-adjustable monoshock. Benelli sources disagree on its other adjustments and its travel (154 or 168 mm). Braking relies on twin 320 mm semi-floating discs with radial four-piston calipers and a 260 mm rear disc.

At 239 kg kerb, the TRK 702 is heavy. RevZilla and SoyMotero nonetheless praise its handling and stability, and MOTORRAD finds it much more agile than the X. Moto.it and 1000PS prefer the X: the 702’s front end tends to tuck in tight corners and gives little feedback. MOTORRAD criticises the fork for bottoming out, and RevZilla notes slight brake fade under hard use.

What equipment?

The 5-inch colour TFT dash handles calls and notifications over Bluetooth, and shows navigation by mirroring the phone’s screen over Wi-Fi; according to 1000PS, the app costs about €30 a year. Lighting is full LED. There is no cruise control or quickshifter.

Fuel consumption and maintenance

Benelli France quotes 4.6 L/100 km; the manual and Benelli Italy give 4.7 L/100 km. BRM recorded about 4.76 L/100 km in its long-term test, giving a range of nearly 420 km from the 20-litre tank. The manual specifies an oil change every 6,000 km or every year and a valve clearance check at 25,000 km. Benelli France’s warranty is 3 years.

Who is it for?

The TRK 702 suits riders who want a complete, comfortable adventure tourer, for two-up travel, at the price of a smaller-capacity bike. MOTORRAD compares it to the Honda NC750X, Kawasaki Versys 650 and Yamaha Tracer 7, all more expensive in France.

Recalls

No recall affects the TRK 702 (Safety Gate, RappelConso, NHTSA).
