Moto Morini’s mid-size adventure model has been updated to create the X700 Gold Edition. It has a revised Euro 5+ parallel twin motor with a new 693cc capacity giving a 20% power hike to 71hp and an equally impressive increase in torque. Other updates to create the Gold version include 19in front and 17in rear spoked Akront gold wheels with Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR tyres, a centre stand, remote preload adjustment for the Kayaba rear shock, traction control, heated grips and seat, and an integrated dashcam. Other features of the X-Cape 700 include Marzocchi forks, Brembo brakes with switchable ABS, tyre pressure monitoring, LED lighting and a 7in TFT dash. It’s available in three colours – red, white or black – for £6699 including a three year warranty.
