Moto Morini has unveiled the updated X-Cape 700, bringing more power and key updates for 2025. The new adventure bike features a larger 693cc parallel-twin engine, producing a claimed 69 bhp at 8500 rpm – a 10 bhp bump over the outgoing 650 model.
Designed to meet Euro5+ emission standards, the new X-Cape retains its steel trellis chassis while offering an adjustable riding position and a slipper clutch. These updates aim to take on rivals like the Yamaha Tenere 700, but with a much more accessible price tag.
The X-Cape 700 comes standard with switchable ABS, dual USB ports, hand guards, and a seven-inch TFT display. Suspension duties are handled by 50 mm Marzocchi upside-down forks offering 175 mm travel, while a KYB rear monoshock provides 165 mm travel. Braking is courtesy of Brembo components, enhancing its adventure-ready credentials.
Moto Morini also offers a range of optional accessories, including a rally exhaust, heated grips, an aluminium sump guard, and various luggage options, further boosting the bike’s touring capabilities.
