The Benelli 502 C 2020 and the KTM 790 Duke 2018 are both naked bikes with similar engine types, fuel systems, and cooling systems. However, there are several differences between the two models.
In terms of engine power, the KTM 790 Duke 2018 has a significant advantage with 105 HP compared to the Benelli 502 C 2020's 48 HP.

On the other hand, the Benelli has a more pleasant engine and a lower seat height of 750 mm, making it more accessible for riders of all sizes.
Both bikes have upside-down telescopic forks for the front suspension and swing arm suspension with a monoshock for the rear suspension. However, the KTM 790 Duke 2018 has an advantage with its rear suspension material being made of aluminum, which is lighter than the steel material used in the Benelli 502 C 2020.

However, the KTM 790 Duke 2018 has larger front disk diameters at 300 mm compared to the Benelli 502 C 2020's 280 mm.

In terms of weaknesses, the Benelli 502 C 2020 has a hard chassis, few functions in the TFT display, and a small pillion saddle. The KTM 790 Duke 2018, on the other hand, has rough handling at low revs, can be difficult to handle in city traffic, has sometimes fiddly-looking switches on the handlebars, and may experience oil leaks at the engine block.
Overall, the KTM 790 Duke 2018 offers more power, advanced rider assistance systems, and a sportier riding experience. However, the Benelli 502 C 2020 has a more accessible seat height, a larger fuel tank capacity, and a more appealing design.

Benelli 502 C 2020
Benelli 502 C är definitivt ett spännande fenomen i A2-cruiserklassen. Med ett mycket bekant utseende och en trevlig tvåcylinder är den ett spännande alternativ till topphundarna i denna klass. Tack vare den stora bränsletanken skulle den faktiskt kunna vara en bra långfärdsmotorcykel om fjädringsinställningen inte valdes för hårt. Dessutom är det omöjligt att ta med en passagerare med gott samvete, eftersom han eller hon kommer att klamra sig fast vid det lilla sätet under hela resan. Men om du bara planerar att köra ensam och vill vara så diskret som möjligt är Benelli 502 C perfekt. Gott om motorcyklar för A2-förare!
KTM 790 Duke 2018
The KTM 790 Duke L is an absolutely sporty naked bike with a high fun factor. Whether a beginner rider can handle it depends very much on his or her personality and riding behaviour. There are certainly motorbikes better suited for learning, but sporty radius hunters will hardly be satisfied with anything else. The 790 Duke L is also rather unenthusiastic about everyday rides in the city. On the country road, however, it's a blast, even with only 48 hp. Simply a fun bike as it is written in the book.
