Thoughts About The Upcoming Benelli TRK 251

The new Benelli TRK 251 is priced aggressively for what it offers, however, it could have been even better if Benelli had introduced a base version with slightly fewer features to keep the cost further down. Now, that would have made a huge impact on the Indian two-wheeler market.
