With the launch of 502c, we are venturing into an all-new segment of high-performance power cruisers and are looking forward to add more customers to the Benelli family in the country.”
The Benelli 502c will be offered in two colour options – Matte Cognac Red and Matte Black. The Ultimate Urban Cruiser is powered by a refined 500cc, four-stroke, twin cylinder engine with EFI, DOHC and TLI. The engine churns out 47.5 PS of peak power at 8500 rpm and 45 Nm of peak torque at 6000 rpm. The 502c gets a 21-litre of fuel tank for relentless cruising and 170mm of ground clearance that guarantees unlimited miles of freedom. It also gets a fully digital console that provides all the information that a rider needs.
The 502c also gets unmatched comfort and riding ergonomics, thanks to the low seating position, wide swept handlebars and forward-set foot pegs. The adjustable rear mono-shock is flexible to suit the rider’s needs based on the weight requirements and riding conditions. The braking duties are handled by dual semi-floating 280mm discs up front and a 240mm disc at the rear with dual-channel ABS offering strong bite and progressive feedback to the rider.
