Moto Morini X-Cape

The Moto Morini X-Cape 650 is the brand’s mid-size adventure bike based on the 649 cc, parallel-twin engine which produces 59 bhp at 8,250 rpm and 54 Nm of peak torque at 7,000 rpm. The X-Cape is offered in two variants, with the standard X-Cape 650 getting cast alloy wheels, while the more off-road capable X-Cape 650X getting wire spoke wheels, shod with tubeless tyres.

The X-Cape 650 is built around a steel frame and runs on 19-inch front wheel and 17-inch rear wheel combination, with a 50 mm front adjustable fork from Marzocchi and preload adjustable KYB rear shock. The standard X-Cape 650 runs on cast alloy wheels, while the X-Cape 650X runs on wire-spoke wheels shod with the same Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR dual-purpose tyres.

The Moto Morini X-Cape 650 gets Brembo brakes with Bosch dual-channel ABS, a large 7-inch TFT screen, adjustable windscreen. There are no other electronic rider aids like traction control system or multiple riding modes. Lighting is full-LED, and the X-Cape 650 does strike an attractive pose. The standard X-Cape 650 competes against the Kawasaki Versys 650, while the X-Cape 650X competes against the Suzuki V-Strom 650 XT.
