Benelli 502 C 2020

The Benelli 502 C is definitely an exciting phenomenon in the A2 cruiser class. With a very familiar look and a pleasant two-cylinder, it is an exciting alternative to the top dogs in this class. Thanks to the large fuel tank, it could actually be a good long-distance motorbike if the suspension set-up were not chosen too harshly. Moreover, it is impossible to take a passenger with a clear conscience, as he or she will be clinging for dear life to the small seat for the entire ride. However, if you only plan rides alone and want to be as conspicuous as possible, the Benelli 502 C is perfect. Plenty of motorbike for A2 riders!

Honda CMX500 Rebel 2020

It is always fascinating how much riding fun Honda has packed into the small Rebel 500. The technology is familiar thanks to the modular system and should - typically for Honda - last forever. Now, with the update for 2020, the little Rebel presents itself cooler than ever, because LED lighting and the optional Special Edition with quilted seat make it a cool custom cruiser ex works. Only the front brake could use more lard and the engine is a little characterless, even compared to the direct competition. Nevertheless, it is and remains a real insider's tip for cruiser lovers!

compact dimensions

reasonable performance

lively handling

cool look with lots of custom potential

successful facelift for 2020

too compact for tall pilots

readability of the display

front brake requires too much hand force
