Benelli showcases the new Leoncino family at Eicma 2019

At the 77th edition of the Internazionale Ciclo Motociclo e Accessori (EICMA 2019) in Milan, Italy, Italian motorcycle maker Benelli unveiled, apart from its 2020 lineup, the Benelli Leoncino 800 and 800 Trail. 

The historic brand from Pesaro evolved its classic (and successful) family range introducing a new technical platform, based on the twin-cylinder inline 754 cc engine capable of 81,6 hp, which results perfectly integrated into the steel trellis frame. This mechanical element features an excellent 50mm Marzocchi fork along with Brembo radial calipers. The Benelli Leoncino 800 is a one-of-a-kind street classic bike equipped with 17” wheels and an exhaust positioned low. 

The 800 Trail version recalls immediately the Scrambler models and is characterized by 19” front wheel, high exhaust and suspension system featuring an increased travel. Within 2020 both models from Benelli are expected.
