From the performance – thanks to the fantastic 689cc parallel twin-cylinder engine – to the electronic package, through to the top-level chassis, everything has been the subject of a deep study by Fantic's R&D department. Only one fundamental characteristic has remained the same, the perfect balance between road and off-road fun, as befits an authentic scrambler.
Caballero 700 is the only model in the segment to boast a set of parameters that allow it to tackle roads and trails without worries: 19" and 17”, wire-spoked wheels and optimised suspension combined with a weight of only 175kg (without fuel) make for agility, safety and precision riding on any terrain.
ENGINE
The range’s flagship is equipped with Yamaha's much-revered CP2 parallel twin, which for the first time leaves Japanese models to embrace an Italian chassis.
The perfect power to have fun on- and off-road, 74hp at 9000rpm, comes with a new robust torque curve delivering strongly throughout the rev range: 60Nm constant up to 8000rpm, with a peak of 70Nm at 6500rpm.
These values result from lengthy design and calibration development across the entire exhaust and intake systems which feature a unique airbox and engine mapping.
The Caballero 700 delivers exceptional performance and gratifying power output, rendering it an ideal choice for mid-range journeys. Its cosy seat provides ample room for a fellow traveller.
CHASSIS
The Caballero 700's excellent chassis balance comes from a new high-resistance steel frame and a swingarm machined from a high-quality aluminium casting.
Marzocchi suspension consists of a robust 45mm upside-down fork and a preload-adjustable monoshock.
The suspension settings and 150mm of travel are the result of an optimisation and balance found after countless kilometres of riding in all conditions: fast tracks, motorways, twisty mixed roads, dirt roads, and offroad paths.
The Caballero 700 also delivers exceptional braking performance. This bike can easily handle any road thanks to a powerful combination of a 330mm disc and Brembo 4-piston callipers up front and 240mm disc with Brembo caliper at the rear.
AESTHETICS
Compared to the Scrambler 700, the Deluxe features a new graphic design: the dedicated "Grigio Campovolo" color extends to the side panels, creating an elegant contrast with the black fenders.
The distinctive touch of the livery comes from the "3 stripes" graphic, which decorates the side number plate and extends in shades of gray over the seat and fuel tank, giving it a sophisticated and modern look.
Perfect for those seeking a unique style without compromising the performance of the Caballero 700, the Deluxe offers an ideal balance between refined design and functionality, making it a versatile and captivating choice for both city riding and adventure.
SAFETY
The Caballero 700 is the first Fantic to offer cornering ABS and traction control as standard.
The refined inertial measurement unit (IMU) enables bike control even with the bike leaning over, offering precise and reliable electronic intervention.
Both controls can be fully deactivated should the riding conditions require it, such as in the most demanding off-road conditions.
TECHNOLOGY
The Caballero 700 is equipped with a state-of-the-art electronics package. It is the world's first scrambler with an iconic round 3.5" TFT screen with integrated Bluetooth for controlling calls and media.
Through the screen and the handlebar-mounted switch blocks, it is possible to select the three Riding Modes: STREET, OFFROAD (specifically designed for when leaving the usual roads), and CUSTOM, which allows the rider to configure all the ABS cornering and Traction Control settings as wished, up to complete deactivation.
A full-LED lighting system completes the equipment.
