Benelli TRK 502

[Grubscrew]

Does any one have one of these bikes?
I am not my self looking to buy, but my son is looking at various options, and is fairly limited on bikes, a tall chap is he.
Knowing these bikes are made in China under licence ( what isn’t these days), it is right on the Hp limit, as is my CB500X. The Benelli looks ok from a perspective of modern thinking chap.
A BMW Gs650 has been tried also.

Going down the route of buying a bigger bike however and restricting it may also be a possibility, but knowing the insurance companies will want to ask about modifications........so telling them it’s had a restrictor fitted will no doubt inflate an already costly exercise.

So wondered what you reckoned, either restrictor or bike within the 47hp category.

Generally gets reasonable reviews, not outstanding, not awful..

Never ridden 1, however, have sat on 1 and it's quite comfy, I did think about getting 1 myself before..
