Which is larger, the Benelli 502x or the Waterbird?
1 Answers
The Benelli 502x is 2200mm in length, while the Waterbird measures 2300mm, making the Waterbird larger. Below are the relevant details: 1. Appearance: These two models share significant similarities in overall design. First, the iconic beak-like front is a common feature, and the front sections of both models are very alike. However, differences become apparent at the seat area. The 502, in an attempt to lower the seat height, results in a rather pronounced difference between the front and rear seats, which severely impacts the overall harmony of the bike. 2. Design: The exhaust pipe design also affects the 502's overall aesthetics to some extent. Although it is a touring bike, the underbelly exhaust design seems somewhat 'out of place,' as this style is typically seen on street bikes. Regardless of the original design intent for a touring bike, this choice makes the rear section of the bike appear overly sparse. Therefore, in terms of overall harmony and appearance, the 502x fares slightly better.
