How to reach the ground better on the Benelli TRK 251?

Discovering the Benelli TRK 251: performance and style in a compact package

The Benelli TRK 251 is a motorcycle that has positioned itself as an excellent choice for those looking to get started in the world of trail bikes with the A2 license. Since its launch in 2018, it has maintained an adventurous, modern and robust aesthetic, reminiscent of the renowned TRK 502, its older sister. But beyond the design, the TRK 251 keeps a number of features that make it a very attractive bike.

Equipped with a 249 cc single-cylinder engine that delivers 26 hp, this Benelli responds with ease both in the city and on the highway. Its performance not only allows for agile riding in urban environments, but also provides confidence for off-road escapades or light off-road forays.

The steel chassis with tubular trellis structure provides a solid foundation, while its 41 mm inverted fork ensures efficient and comfortable suspension. It also features ABS brakes, 17-inch wheels and ergonomics that together provide a balanced and enjoyable everyday riding experience.

Benelli TRK 251 seat height: is it accessible to all?

One of the big doubts among those interested in the Benelli TRK 251 is whether it can really reach the ground comfortably. This is a critical point, especially for riders of medium or short stature, who might find the seat height an obstacle.

The seat height varies according to the year and the source consulted:

• According to official data from the manufacturer and sites such as Motofichas, the height is 800 mm for the latest models (2021-2024).
• In several data sheets of the original 2018 model, the height is raised to 835 mm.

In addition, ground clearance ranges from 170 mm to 200 mm, and curb weight ranges from 153 to 176 kg, depending on assembly and country of origin. These factors, coupled with the type of suspension and seat shape, directly affect the ease with which a rider can keep his feet firmly on the ground when stopping.
