It was an memorable thing
It was an memorable thing that happened in my life were my Dad presented me a bike on my birthday. And the bike was my one of the dream bike to buy in my life. The dual led headlights and sculpted fuel tank give it a premium, aggressive look. Fuel efficiency is around 40-45 kmpl, depending on riding conditions.

A Classic Roadster
The Benelli 502 C deserves its headline Benelli 502 C is a Classic Roadster as it delivers a classic retro roadster riding experience. Power comes from a 500cc parallel-twin engine that offers plenty of torque for easy riding around town as well as highway cruising. Ergonomics place the rider in an upright and comfortable position with mid-set footpegs and pulled-back handlebars. The round headlight, teardrop-shaped fuel tank, and single seat give it that timeless roadster look that never goes out of style.
