2019 Benelli Leoncino Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Benelli for the enduro - offroad motorcycle segment, the 2019 Benelli Leoncino pairs a 499.6 cc (30.5 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 47.6 HP (34.7 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 45 Nm (33.2 lb-ft) at 5,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 95.3 HP per liter and a 3,500 rpm working window between peak torque (5,000 rpm) and peak power (8,500 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 measures 186 kg (410 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.26 HP/kg (3.91 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 785 mm (30.9 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,443 mm (56.8 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 13.5-liter (3.6 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.2 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 614 km (382 miles) between fill-ups.
