Benelli Leoncino 125 Motorcycle Review: All The Things You Need to Know!

[@JohnnyXoz]

It's not a 'False neutral' if you find it between 1st and 2nd it's an actual neutral. False neutral is between any other gear like 5 and 6, 4 and 5 etc

[@mickgascoigne4003]

Just done my cbt went and bought a brand new one today for me as never rode a bike before it’s perfect for a couple of months before before I do my full license and hit the big cruising bike

[@Thegeordiemonkey]

More sense to bring the 250 out too,its a growing market and could compete with the enfield hunter, the concepts they brought out would be popular too, the 500 leoncino was a nice bike to ride.

[@sergentcolon1]

The Hunter is unbeatable value for money though ( it’s not much more than this 125 and will be cheaper than the 250) and has better build quality and the 350 engine is a brilliant real world power unit with lots of torque and a smooth power delivery.

[@thatladliam580]

It’s nice but still doesn’t take the xsr off of the top spot for 125s

[@BikeMatters]

Yup agree with you on that one.

[@sebastianbolt7886]

For me they're equal in sexiness 😁

[@domentorkar8427]

make a Benelli TRK 502 X review. I have it and it is awsome.

[@rednelli]

TRK502 the same. LOVE from last 4 or 5 yers.

[@skay3264]

I had TRK251 and the thing about the gear lever is exactly the same. It can be stuck, and you get it down and then up. The thing smoothes itself by time. And then you don't have it anymore.

[@skay3264]

Brake also. Too smoochy... And the service told me it can not be changed. Worth to know, they don't "belive" in rear wheel braking. So maybe they just didn't wanted to set it...

[@BikeMatters]

Thanks for the insight!

[@claiff5501]

Bro u suggest the TRK251 or the Leoncino 125??

[@giuseppeschetter8185]

Same issue here in italy, the gear-clutch combination is awful, i felt you when you said you need to cranck it up And yes, false neutral is on a daily basis

[@nekkosuperfire6852]

Mi consigli di prenderla o devo andare su altro quindi?

[@rednelli]

SEAT??? Several times routes of 10h in the saddle. With breaks for water and brain rest.... This is a very comfortable seat once you find slack in your body.

[@markdowyoung]

Rear brake can’t feel it for the first few cm I thought it was me being a new rider

[@BikeMatters]

Thanks for the comment!

[@steveulliott4106]

yeah i agree, ive just bought mine, same problems, it seems i also have to really stretch my left foot to change the gear, can you adjust these 2 problems, does anyone know? also im a heavy rider and I feel like the bikes bottoming out, stiff and not much travel while riding, so the manual just says adjust suspension clockwise for softer, or anticlockwise for stiffer, i simply want to know which way to turn, soft or stiff for a heavy rider, dont want to know technical jargon, just what ive asked, cheers

[@I_PRO_PLAYER]

i’m 1.94 m can i ride it ?

[@sergentcolon1]

The problem is these Chinese Benelli bikes don’t have a great reputation for reliability or build quality.

[@brianconnor1810]

Not so much nowadays. Some of these Chinese 125's have good reliability and build quality. All iphones are made in China, people don't question there build quality. I was also being told that most Japanese bike makers 125 bikes are now being made in China as well

[@sergentcolon1]

@@brianconnor1810 I am aware of everything you said, but iPhones are built to Apple standards as are the Japanese bikes made in China. The Benelli doesn’t have a great reputation for reliability however.

[@brianconnor1810]

@@sergentcolon1 Yes, good point👍
