Fantic Caballero 700 Scrambler (2023 onwards)

The Fantic Caballero 700 Scrambler is a bigger and more powerful version of the company’s most famous retro motorcycle, the Caballero 500 Scrambler. It now comes with a 689cc parallel-twin engine made by Yamaha and a whopping 75 horsepower.

The bike is not as lightweight and off-road capable as its smaller sibling, but you will get much more power and better comfort on long rides.

The build quality is still excellent, and everything on the bike feels well-finished and premium. The only slight disappointment are the Pirelli Scorpion STR off-road tyres, as something sportier would suit much better for this motorcycle.

A2 Licence Compliance

The Fantic Caballero 700 Scrambler is a 689cc A2-friendly bike. It has a power output of 55 kW (75 bhp), which exceeds the 35 kW (47 bhp) limit needed for an A2 licence. The bike has to be restricted by at least 36.3% to become A2 licence compliant.


You will need a restrictor to ride the Fantic Caballero 700 Scrambler on an A2 motorbike licence. See the restrictor kits section to check out what restrictors are available for the Fantic Caballero 700 Scrambler.
