Benelli say the new Leoncino 800 is a motorcycle with an authentic style, characterised by essentiality and a balanced mix of classic and modern styles, which finds its maximum expression thanks to the new 754cc beating heart, the most advanced in the Benelli range.

In the Leoncino 800 the shapes become sharper and dynamic, while maintaining that unmistakeable Leoncino look.

The beating heart of Leoncino 800 is the 754cc, liquid cooled, four-stroke, twin cylinder engine; which is now Euro 5 approved. It delivers well on the throttle with a power of 56 kW@8500rpm and a torque of 67Nm@6500rpm. The double overhead camshaft timing with 4 valves per cylinder, as well as the double throttle body of 43mm diameter, wet anti-slip clutch and 6-speed gearbox, complete the picture for a safe and state-of-the-art engine transmission assembly.

The suspension consists of a front upside-down Marzocchi fork with 50mm tubes, adjustable in rebound, compression and preload and 140mm travel. On the back there is a swingarm with central adjustable monoshock in the spring preload and rebound damping.

The Brembo braking system is exceptionally safe thanks to the double 320mm diameter semi-floating disc on the front and four-piston radial-mount monoblock calliper, and a 260mm diameter disc on the back with a double-piston calliper. The 17in aluminium alloy tubeless spoked rims mount 120/70-17 and 180/55-17 tyres. While the tank has a remarkable 15l capacity…
