Italian motorcycle manufacturer Benelli has announced the commencement of bookings for its TRK 251 adventure tourer in India. As the youngest sibling of the TRK line-up, the 251 follows the same design language as its other tribe members. The TRK 251’s closest rivals in the adventure-motorcycle segment include the Royal Enfield Himalayan and the BMW Motorrad G 310 GS.
Customers can pre-book the TRK 251 for INR 6,000 at the nearest Benelli dealership or the official online website. Benelli has also stated that it has scheduled the deliveries of the TRK 251 from January 2022 across all dealerships. Benelli will offer the TRK 251 in 3 distinct colours- Glossy White, Glossy Black, and Glossy Grey.
