One of the key highlights of the new TRK 251 is its huge 18-litre fuel tank which as per Benelli has been added to complement its touring credentials. Also, it gets a decent 170 mm of ground clearance. Himalayan gets a smaller 15-litre fuel tank but has a taller 220 mm ground clearance.
In terms of cycle parts, the Himalayan rolls on the 21-inch front wheel and a 17-inch rear wheel shod with dual-sport rubber, while the TRK only gets the standard 17-inch wheels on either end. What's common on both bikes is the 800 mm seat height.
