Big winner of the vintage movement, the scrambler is so out of the picture that we swear by it. Ducati has contributed a lot to the popularization of the name. While only a few enthusiasts nostalgically dream of the Voxan of the same name. Benelli also thinks of going to tease a little rock on the road to the lake. To do this, and without worrying about the development of a specific machine, what could be simpler and more striking than to modify its flagship roadster to make it the 500 Leoncino Trail..
A series of subtle modifications allow the Benelli to choose its routes. Raised by 10 mm front / 26 mm rear on its suspensions, it will especially appreciate the studded profile of its narrower tires. 110 wide at the front and 150 at the rear. The stick rims being little indicated in off-road, the Leoncino Trail is granted models with spokes in 19 and 17 inches.
Almost technically identical to the road version, the Italian liger replaces its 4-piston calipers with double-piston clamps. Small regret, the exhaust is identical. A raised model would have ensured style and function.
We find the pretty LED headlight, the full digital dashboard in rounded circles, the frame in steel tubes, the large inverted 50 mm fork and the twin cylinder at the power counted. This 500 cc puts out 47.6 horsepower at 8,500 rpm. Not really planned for arson but a good measure to beat the soft ground, and especially calibrated as accurately as possible for the A2 license. 4.6 mkg of torque are there at 6,000 rpm.
Trail or backpacker, the Benelli 500 Leoncino is certainly the most interesting of today’s Benelli. We salute the work of the CentroStile design studio, which raises the level of chinoiseries transplanted into the range.
Late to be available, the 500 Leoncino Trail should only be available in the course of 2018.
