The 2020 Benelli Leoncino 800
2020 Benelli Leoncino 800 sits in the middle of Benelli's naked bike range, sized up from the smaller Leoncino 500 and built for riders who want more midrange muscle without stepping into liter-bike territory. This is a scrambler-styled roadster that leans into torque rather than top-end rush, pulling hard from low RPM in a way that makes city traffic and backroad overtakes feel effortless rather than frantic. The upright seating position and low seat height make it approachable for shorter riders or anyone coming off a smaller-displacement bike, while the chain final drive keeps maintenance straightforward for owners who like to wrench a bit themselves. The 15-liter tank keeps range modest, so this isn't really built for long highway hauls. The 2020 model carried over without significant mechanical changes from the prior year — buyers comparing it to a 2019 example should focus on mileage, service history, and condition rather than spec differences. Typical buyers are riders upgrading from smaller naked bikes or commuters who want retro styling with real usable power, not collectors chasing rarity. It's a practical everyday bike with enough character to avoid feeling generic.
