Benelli TRK 552X: specifications, pros and cons, compatible accessories
The evolution of the TRK 502, with a larger engine and accessories of its own
The TRK 552X inherits the legacy of Italy's best-selling touring motorcycle and updates it: a twin-cylinder engine enlarged to 554 cc, a new frame and handlebar. For those who equip it, this means one thing: the 502 accessories do not fit, and the dedicated LOBOO catalog starts with ergonomics and hand protection.

- Do this firstCHS683 aluminum handguards.
- Good to knowCrash bars and luggage racks are not currently in the catalog.
- Don't confuse themThe TRK 502 part numbers do not fit the 552X.

Who it's recommended for
It's the right motorcycle if
- You liked the TRK 502 but wanted more engine
- You are looking for an affordable mid-size touring bike
- You often ride standing and want a higher, closer handlebar
- You ride on asphalt and easy gravel roads
- You want a new motorcycle with accessories already available
Look elsewhere if
- You want dedicated crash bars and luggage racks: they are not currently in the catalog
- You are looking for an extensive accessories catalog
- You do demanding off-road riding
- You plan to reuse the TRK 502 accessories: the part numbers are different
- You are interested in an established used-market value
In short: it's the updated TRK, with ergonomic accessories ready to go. If you want a mid-size touring bike with a more complete catalog, the Suzuki V-Strom 800 DE has dedicated crash bars and luggage racks; if you have an A2 license, the TRK 502 remains the choice.
