The 2018 Benelli Leoncino Trail
2018 marks the debut of the Benelli Leoncino Trail, the scrambler-styled sibling to the standard Leoncino built with light off-road capability in mind. This is a middleweight retro-scrambler that splits its time between city streets and gravel roads without excelling as a dedicated dirt bike. The upright seating position, forgiving power delivery, and manageable weight make it approachable for riders who want the look of an adventure bike without the intimidation factor of a taller, heavier machine. Around town it's easy to manage at stoplights and in traffic, and on backroads it has enough torque low in the rev range to feel lively without punishing the rider.
As the first year of production, the 2018 Leoncino Trail introduces the model rather than revising it, so there's no prior version to compare against. What you're evaluating here is Benelli's execution out of the gate, not a mid-cycle update.
This bike tends to attract riders coming from smaller commuter machines who want retro styling and light adventure capability without committing to a bigger, pricier adventure bike. It's a practical choice rather than a collector's piece, appealing to owners who plan to actually ride it.
