Benelli Leoncino 500 Trail Reviews

Great bike ! I have owned around 60 motorcycles over the years of various brands mostly Japanese, but this is my first Benelli, It’s a fantastic bike feels solid in the road quality is very good with some nice touches to make it stand out! Rides very smoothly enginevis a peach and nice gear shifts silky smooth. Bikes best suited for commuting A and B roads however it will do motorways no problem sitting at 70mph. Obviously there’s no wind protection so if your going a long way on a motorway you may get fatigued a bit early than with a bike with windshield. But really the bike is designed for fun on and off road it will do light scrambling and the suspension is perfect for doing so. Comfort is ok after an hour I start to get numb bum , so a softer seat maybe a welcome for longer rides. Brakes are very good stops easily with 2 fingers once brakes are bedded in. As an A2 licence bike it’s 47 bhp good bottom end mid range power, and for everyday real riding it’s more than enough to do everything without risking your license, Don’t get me wrong it’s not slow it picks up nicely and pulls through the gears quickly. Great everyday bike. I just covered nearly 800 miles and it’s been serviced, so far very pleased with my purchase bike also handles very well lot of fun through the twisties 👍 for value specs and something a little different recommended bike .
