At the heart of the 2025 Benelli Leoncino 125 enduro - offroad motorcycle, Benelli utilizes a 125 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 12.6 HP (9.2 kW) at 9,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 10 Nm (7.4 lb-ft) at 8,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 100.8 HP per liter and a 1,000 rpm working window between peak torque (8,500 rpm) and peak power (9,500 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Leoncino 125 measures 137 kg (302 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.09 HP/kg (10.87 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 800 mm (31.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,370 mm (53.9 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 12.5-liter (3.3 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.2 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 568 km (353 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 99 km/h (62 mph).
