Thank You for this good review with some humour. The countryside there is very picturesque too.
Absolutely fantastic review😊 thank you 😊
You're most welcome 🤗.. if there's any other questions you might have don't hesitate to ask.
Have owned the Leoncino 500, was a fun bike really enjoyed it. I think Benelli are making some nice machines, will check this one out when it arrives in Australia
Yes yes yo ... I'm sure you'll love it
thanks for such good review You helped us (buyers) so much every info means a lot to us.
please tell me about fuel consumption per 100 km
I took my 702 x in the end of february great bike but i think that 6 lit per 100 km is a little bit too much what do You think?
Curently i drove 312 km and poured 18 litres/ That is 6 lit /100 km?
Of course my brake works😂😂😂 I'm dying
I currently have a tiger 800, but i`m seriously impressed with the reviews on the 702, especially at the price
Hi Kevin sorry for the late reply.. I have a Tiger 1200 rally pro 2022 .. the triumph 800 looks like an awesome bike .. haven't had the chance to ride it myself but hopefully I will get a test ride from my dealership and do a review on it .. if I had the budget I would have bought that one for the missus..
Great review, thank you. I have a trk 502x and I am going to switch towards the 702x but still making up my mind regarding the colour.. moon grey(white) or the dune sea. Had a testride and the lack in performance/hp which was the only issue for me with the 502x is solved with the 702 ☺️
Let me know when you switch 😊.. awesome
@@Ridernineteenone waiting for delivery 🙏😄 dune sea it is. Hoping end of this week or next week for delivery. Looking forward to it
@@pieterjacobs7943 Whoooo hoooo.. I'm excited for you bro ... Whoo hoo
gern mehr davon, überlege auch, mir die 702 X zu holen
Definitely..thank you..more on the way 😊
Hello, have you tried the motorcycle as a duo? because the passenger seat seems small and tilted. Top video
Ya the passenger seat is not really suitable for anything but a backpack 😆
What what what ? Germans who drive Benelli doing english review ?! Strange times indeed . I also bought this one , it should arrive within next 1.5 months , my 1st ever motorcycle straight after driving school . I was breaking my head almost 3 months what to buy, i did visit all 4 Japanese saloons ... I choosed this one because of price , extra travel bags,comfort and really gorgeous look . Friends of mine who owns their motorcycles told me i should pick anything that suits my height and fits my budget . I actually took this without even trying it or sit on it - they are quite popular here in Croatia and they are beeing sold out very quickly . I could've only try TRK 502 X , which was almost same size :/
Haha I'm actually Italian.. born and brought up in India ..but identify as German 😂😂😂😂😂... It's a really strange combo bro 😂😂😂 I like putting hot sauces and chilly on wiener schnitzel... But don't eat pineapple pizza 😂😂😂... Great to hear that you have joined our family of motorcyclists ...we look out for each other on the road .. please wear protective gear at all times even if it's too hot .. I think you've made the right choice with the 702 X 👏👏👏.. if you have watched the video you know what to expect.. I'm working on a PT 2 of the video so subscribe to know when I post it .. thanks for your comment.. be cool and ride safe so you can ride forever
If you hadn't noticed most people prefer english in their video' as there is a much wider audience, which in turn brings more subscribers. Also better than just being known worldwide in Germany (Germans will understand this).
I recognised the 'indian' accent straight away in his english, altho' a bit confused at first, his statement about being Italian born in India clarified this.
What boggled me was, if the bike is for his wife why change things on it to suit yourself if she's happy with it. Let her get used to the bike first as it is and then if she is unhappy with this or that let her make that decision. Crashbars I understand, but handlebars and rear mudguard, it's her bike right, then she cleans it, without, this is one thing less to clean.
Your wife will love it more having more say concerning HER bike 😉.
@@Wrong-Way-Round Hi there, you're not wrong about changing things around on "her" bike however, to my defence I don't think she minded the changes at all, and all said and done she will come to appreciate them more as time goes on and the rides get more technical. As her husband and rider-guider I must ensure that no part of the motorcycle comes in the way of her learning experience..an in my experience the angle and height of the handle bar is very important especially when you need to stand up on gravel. As far as the cleaning goes guess who is gonna be in charge of THAT lol .... But thanks for your comment and thanks for watching..Ride safe
hi there!i had decide to go for the new transalp.but,transalp with the extras i want will go close to 13k.this is at 8.5k with everything.so i m thinking seriously for this bike.i dont have the chance for a test ride,so i went to a dealer and sat on one.,i am 1.80 and i would like my legs to be a little lower.a solution is to make a custon higher seat.and to take off the ruber from the pegs.so,the question is did you have much vibrations to the pegs?at high revs lets say.if the ruber be removed,do you think will be annoying?
Pozdrav Branko. Reci mi koliko si visok i jel ti odgovara motor što se tiče veličine? Ja sam 195 visok i sviđa mi se izgled, ali nisam siguran kako bi izgledao na njemu.
The oil light I figured out. The actual light (on above screen ) goes off when engine comes on, but the main screen gets stuck with the red light if you switch on the engine at the moment the flashing was on. It’s a factory fault
Ohhh Good to know thanks for that ...
nice video,where did you get your crash bars from please👍
Hi Brian .. we bought it on AliExpress 😅.. I think I mentioned that in the video.. do you have a Benelli too?

Hello Thodoris ..Definitely cannot imagine removing the rubber from the pegs and at 4000 rpm it will be terribly annoying... because 4k and the harmonic 8k is usually where we find ourselves riding. You can learn to shift differently but it doesn't feel natural.
@@cf23575 so,you have test ride it,or you own one?
First and foremost, good review, mine is also on order, but regarding your maintenance you are obliged to go to an authorized dealer, regarding your warranty, if you renounce it, you are no longer entitled to the warranty, should something of any kind arise. nature too and if you regularly light up oil warring is not okay 2nd issue you brake the first 100-200 kilometers your motorcycle does not brake as it should, your brake pads still need to be broken in, the same with your tires, but I assume you know all this know, I think you should mention this in your review, there are always people who do not have this experience and end up on the wrong foot. Kind regards.
Hi Marc,
Thanks for your comment and terribly sorry for the late reply.
We did go to the authorised dealer for the first service and yes our warranty is perfectly in tact👍
The oil warning seems to have cleared up and hasn't shown up except when starting the bike which is normal.. Regarding the break pads you may have a point however I think since the break disks were not cleaned initially and I rode it 300kms straight out the dealership with hard braking I think it damaged the performance of the pads temporarily .. however later I did rough them up with sand paper and that issue was sorted as well.. I hope you got yours..keep me posted😊
Vibrations cleared up after the first service???? What could have been that loose?
Well honestly the vibrations are less but still present... this will be a concern for us because when we decide to go for longer rides the vibration from the pegs will affect my wife's plates in her ankle as she twisted and broke it whilst hiking in the forest...I tell you walking is more dangerous than riding LOL
@cf23575 not sure that all wheelchair motorcyclists agree with you... :( :) I use a material from Germany which I put as a washer between footpeg and bike. Reduces vibration nicely: SLAB SL750 OR 450. Forgot which is harder but the harder is the better one. The 1cm thick will compress to like 5mm but still reduce vibrations nicely. There are pro anti vibration pegs from the US but they will cost you...
Is the speedometer showing kms or mph😮
Kmh 😆
this or the cfmoto 800
Im very shocked at the treatment & poor service you received from your Benelli dealer,as you own a New machine that’s under the manufacturers warranty All service parts should be genuine items & Not aftermarket parts. This would invalidate your warranty if your were unfortunate to make a claim. Its lucky that you are competent and able to carry out all the essential service/safety work yourself as not everyone can. Excellent first ride review as to me this bike is very tempting & great value as a Budget adventure machine. Unfortunately in the UK All stock appears to be sold & the next batch is due March 2024.
Absolutely correct... Chinese manufacturing has come a long way however they don't spend much on R&D and after sales service.. I've noticed this with some very expensive camera gear I bought recently as well, same story .. great build quality upto 95% and then some really stupid flaw that you have to overcome and modify using aftermarket parts.. However for the price these niggles can be overlooked and overcome, if, you stay patient and have some handyman skills.. Every machine has its drawback it just depends on what we can live with .. I've had some issues with my triumph tiger 2022 as well, and it's still under warranty.. however I will make another video on this one and explain everything.. Personally I can handle a lot because I am an ex-motorcycle mechanic myself but if you think of the average consumer like my wife ... well that's why I'm starting to make these videos..Thanks for your comment much appreciated🤗
@@Ridernineteenone I agree 100% & we all need to take Chinese products very seriously now as they are getting very close to the popular motorcycle brands now but better value for money. I really think I will be changing my 2017 Honda NC750X for either a New Benelli or CF Moto early next year. I too do home servicing so will try my best to care for it myself as long as I can obtain parts. Keep the Benelli updates coming,it would be great to view some workshop /service videos on the TRK702 as I’m sure other owners would benefit from them.
@@johndavy8801 Yes that line has certainly blurred into oblivion, the bigger motorcycle companies cannot rest on their laurels anymore.. competition is good for us and the market ...the build quality although copied is definitely up to scratch.. If your budget permits I would highly recommend the CF moto Ibex 800 or mt 800 as called here in Europe.. It's something I have actually fantasised about.... selling my tiger and buying it🤫... it's about 13k here in Germany.. Still can't bring myself to sell the tiger though😮💨... but when I saw it in person at the dealership the force was strong.. however if budget is a concern the TRK 702x is definitely my second recommendation ..
Nice video, lovely views. Cheers
How is the resale market over there? Here in the US Benelli is garbage, so maybe not the same manufacturing and you guys have a non chinese built bike I'm not sure. We have CFMOTO here in the US as well which is getting popular but their immediately a 50% depreciation when you buy one, so most stick with Honda/Yamaha for ADV stuff.
