Moto Morini Trail bike with Italian passport made in China: all-inclusive adventures
Adventure on a motorcycle is synonymous with trail. Now, a new edition of a model is being launched that aims to give you everything
There are many trail bikes. The hard part is showing a unique personality.
Moto Morini knows this well and further refines the character of its mid-displacement trail bike. This is a version that doesn't just add aesthetic shine, but also strengthens its technical features.
We are referring to the new Moto Morini X-CAPE 700 Gold Edition. It not only looks different from the standard version. It is better equipped and ready to devour miles (kilometers) beyond the pavement.
This special edition is based on the Moto Morini X-CAPE 700. This represented a notable leap forward compared to the previous 650.
The Gold version keeps the same 693 cc parallel-twin engine. It delivers 70 hp at 8,500 rpm and torque of 50 lb-ft (68 Nm) at 6,500.
It is an engine with strong low-end power, capable of moving smoothly on open roads and also on demanding trails. This is thanks to its well-designed tubular steel frame and a high-level chassis.

What sets this edition apart is its more adventurous focus. It features gold spoked tubeless wheels, fitted with Pirelli Scorpio Rally STR tires.
The KYB rear suspension includes a convenient remote control to adjust the spring preload. This makes it easier to adapt to different loads or terrains. At the front, the 50 mm Marzocchi inverted fork is fully adjustable, with 6.9 in. (175 mm) of travel.
The brake system, by Brembo, features 11.7 in. (298 mm) discs at the front and 10 in. (255 mm) at the rear.
Comfort has been another key aspect in this evolution. It comes standard with heated grips and seat, center stand, and manually adjustable windscreen. It also features a complete 7-inch TFT display with integrated navigation.
It adds tire pressure monitoring and full smartphone connectivity. It even includes a front camera. This way, you can record your routes and relive the adventure.
The seat height is set at 33.3 in. (845 mm), with the option to lower it to 32.3 in. (820 mm). Meanwhile, the 4.8 gal. (18 liters) fuel tank ensures notable range.
The Moto Morini X-CAPE 700 Gold Edition is available in Passion Red, Carrara White, and Ebony Black, at a price of 7,990 euros.
With this version, Moto Morini strengthens its commitment to a versatile trail bike, suitable for the A2 license. The goal? The freedom to always go further.
