Dan Trent reviews the Benelli Leoncino 800 Trail

Is the Benelli a Budget Ducati Scrambler or a Fantatstic Value for Money Street Bike ?

The Mid-life Crisis Motorcyclist himself - Mr Dan Trent of Autotrader and Goodwood Motoring Fame naughtily click baits us with a 'Poundland Ducati Scrambler' tag to describe the Mighty Fine Benelli Leoncino Trail 800 !

Join me for a ride on the Benelli Leoncino 800 Trail in an attempt to find out if this is a credible twist on the retro-modern scrambler format … or just a cheap, Chinese-built Ducati Scrambler rip-off.

Hopefully not, because Benelli as a brand has a great name and history and as you’ll discover, the engine powering this bike has an interesting origin story as well.

Let’s go!
