The new models build on the touring formula established by the TRK 502 and TRK 502X, sharing their engine, frame, braking hardware and comfort equipment. The TRK 552 is aimed at riders who primarily cover roads and highways, while the TRK 552X adds a larger front wheel and greater ground clearance for those venturing beyond the tarmac.

Tech And Touring Comfort

A new 5-inch TFT instrument console is one of the main equipment upgrades, supporting Bluetooth connectivity and navigation with route planning, turn-by-turn directions, offline navigation, and trackback functionality. Both motorcycles also get a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System, navigation screen mirroring, a gear indicator, USB charging and illuminated switchgear, with T-BOX connectivity offered as optional.

The motorcycles are built around a tubular steel trellis frame with an aluminium swingarm, suspended by a 50mm Marzocchi upside-down front fork and a rear monoshock with adjustable preload. Braking hardware comprises twin 320mm floating discs at the front and a single 260mm rear disc, with Bosch dual-channel ABS as standard.
