Benelli 502C Overview

The Benelli 502C stands out as a sizeable cruiser with a 21-litre tank and more power than the Kawasaki Eliminator. Its 46.8 bhp and six-speed gearbox will appeal to buyers looking beyond a basic commuter, while dual-channel ABS helps prevent either wheel from locking during hard braking.

It is priced below the Eliminator, but its 22 kmpl claimed mileage is lower than that rival’s 29 kmpl. At 216 kg, it is lighter than the Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650, though still a substantial bike to manoeuvre. The 750 mm seat height is worth checking for shorter riders. A stepped pillion seat comes with footrests and a grab rail, but there is no phone connectivity or USB charging. Its weight and claimed fuel economy are trade-offs for buyers considering daily use.

  • Dual-channel ABS helps prevent both wheels from locking during hard braking.
  • The 21-litre tank means less frequent fuel stops in principle.
  • 46.8 bhp gives it more power than the Kawasaki Eliminator.
  • A 750 mm seat height may suit some shorter riders better than taller cruisers.
  • The stepped pillion seat has footrests and a grab rail.

What we like

  • More power than the Kawasaki Eliminator.
  • Large 21-litre fuel tank.
  • Dual-channel ABS and disc brakes at both ends.
  • Lighter than the Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650.

What could be better

  • The 22 kmpl claimed mileage trails the Kawasaki Eliminator’s 29 kmpl.
  • Its 216 kg kerb weight is substantial for manoeuvring.
  • No mobile phone connectivity or USB charging port.

Best for: The Benelli 502C is best for buyers wanting a powerful cruiser with a large tank and who can accept its weight and modest claimed mileage.
