Honestly, when im comparing this to say, the cb500x, as a courier who has to occassionally cover routes down farm tracks (as a replacement for my current 125) the major failings of this bike are the 4k service interval compared to honda's 8k (which means i'm out of work twice as often) and the fact its chinese. that said, chinese bikes HAVE got a lot better over the years, and the fact some uk dealers are offering 5 year warranties(!) over the japs 2/3 year ones means I'm actually considering this. the issue I have, of course, is unlike riders who ride for fun or to commute, taking a taxi isn't an option with my job.

@tobyjohns3814 4 жыл бұрын

Looks good. Assuming the finish holds up in the longer term, goes to show you don’t need 1300cc and £20,000 for an adventure bike. In fact for any actual off roading I’d rather be on a slightly lighter bike, and this would be enough for road use as opposed to a single cylinder more off road focused machine... Hopefully this Chinese tie in works for Benelli, and the build quality is good. I hope that this secures the future of Benelli, a proper Italian brand with plenty of history, while increasing build quality and changing opinion of Chinese bikes. Remember, we used to think the Japanese were poor quality knock offs... My MV dealer in Barnsley sell Benelli and really rate the new stuff...

@OneShotMoto 4 жыл бұрын

Exactly, would be good to be a bit lighter, but it's really capable off road and fun. You could always buy more than three of these for the price of one £20k machine if the finish didn't hold up ;)

Nice looking bike but, 80-90lbs heavier than CB500X. Pretty much in same price range as Honda if you time it right and look for deals on Honda. It has bunch of details than don't come stock on Honda though. The rear tire size offers better choices than Honda. It's ok if you want to take chance and live with it for a long time as it is pretty much write off financially.

Hi! Thanks for the review . In my opinion this motorcycle has some major problems for being a real aventure bike... It's much two heavy . It weights almost as a 1200 GS and it has more than a half power. In the other hand a true adventure motorcycle must be a little bit higher. I would also think about the service network before buying it. But the price is great.

Hello, I've owned this bike for a couple of months now, so I think I can speak on it. There is a fair bit of vibration above 110km/h and the factory windshield was a bit short for me (I'm 190cm tall) so I replaced it with a taller one by GIVI, all in all the bike is great to ride on the highway, very comfortable and if I had to add just one thing it would be cruise control, other than that it's quite good.

@paveldeveraux2729 4 жыл бұрын

It would be a great idea to replace the front plastic with a 10 liter spare gas tank, that would definitely would make it an adventure bike ....Get rid of all the front and sides plastic and do something useful with that space .... On the way maybe increase the front fender/tire distance by at least 5 centimeters .. Think of the users, not just cater to the ( apparent ) aerodinamic profile of the bike... Think to appeal to particular users with different configurations ...Break the mold of just looks .... Why do you think the ugly duckling Royal Enfield Himalaya is becoming an adoptee of the Adventure crowd... It is not for its looks or power, but for reliability easy adaptability.
