    Quite informative for a first look video. The easily accessible preload monoshock adjuster is quite handy. Just a small thing , the rider reviewing it is 6.1 ft & the bike seat height is 815 mm. In no way is that seat low compared to avg Indian height being 5.5 - 5.7 ft.

    • @vivekstreme1994
      @vivekstreme1994 5 років тому

      The seat height is low compared to a usual scrambler which ranges from 840 to 860mm. 815mm of this bike is pretty accessible for someone who Is even 5 ft 5 inch. You cant flat foot it but it's definitely rideable. It's just a matter of practice.

      Benelli motorcycles are known to have low purchase prices, but high service costs. besides they are built top heavy, so riding and cornering isn't confidence inspiring. I haven't tested this one though.

      @ashem_ry 5 років тому

      Leoncino comprises of better looks, greater build quality, higher power considering it has 150cc lesser engine displacement, more reliability - when comparing it with the Interceptor. Moreover Benelli is a premium brand targeted for people who are willing to shell out cash for better quality & durability, though not as much as other (international; not Indian) brands in the same/similar segment.

      These are same forks as on 600i bit both can be adjusted for preload . Plus the caliper you see are from Brembo with Benelli badging . To fit these they are using 50mm forks so that the parts can be shared across the platform

    The Chinese manufacturers are fast catching up (or have pretty much caught up) in terms of aesthetics, engineering design and reliability. But the one area they're still lagging behind quite noticeably is weight management -- for some reason, all Chinese bikes in the international market tend to be quite porky for their class!

    Leoncino owner here since March of last year. Bike is good in terms of power but some issues are there 1) Engine cuts off sometimes when downshifting coming from high RPM or going down hill 2) switches fail sometimes, may be due to moisture going in and rusting the contacts, pressing the buttons again will resolve. WD40 may prevent this in the future. 3) had an instance where the digital display cluster broke, its like when a calculator screen breaks and only portions of the numbers are showing? ganun. good thing is bumalik din, my theory is again moisture kasi i have been riding this thing in the rain of washing it 4) Rust, rust, rust. The frame is mostly steel not an alloy to save cost. and you will notice rust forming in some expose areas soon. There is an area where the rear brake line rubbed against the swingarm and exposing metal and it rusted. Had to sand the part and repaint it to prevent it from rusting further. the rear view mirrors are also rusted and paint starting from the thread are already bubbling up due to rust 5) aluminum corrosion, not sure what type of aluminum they are using but it is certainly low grade. Foot pegs both the rider and the passenger are already showing signs of corrosion same with the brake master cylinder and some aluminum parts. I am concerned about engine parts as it is too aluminum. 6) Chain, the chain rusts very quickly, I am very particular in my maintenance but still could not prevent it. Maybe i just need to replace it with a better one 6) Brake discs rust very quickly too, some of it went to the fork stanchions which i had to clean quickly so the stanchions dont rust.
    All in all, if i had to go back in time I would not buy this bike. Good looking for sure and engine is very capable, sadly the parts around it are not up to par with other makers. You will be best served by buying something like the XSR 700 for not a whole lot more money.

    That's a cool motorcycle.
    But not the worth it here.
    We here need more of 250cc bikes which are perfect for the young blood. But sad part is there isn't good bikes available except KTM Duke 250 which is okay, not that great.
    There are much better and beautiful looking 250cc motorcycles such as
    1. Honda CBR 250RR
    2. Yamaha R25
    3. Kawasaki Ninja 250
    4. KTM RC 250 etc
    All these bikes are epic and amazing 😍😍😍
    But the companies are afraid of launching here in India because of its a little over pricing and taxing which is very bad.
    It's despairing that because of taxes all these crazy sports bikes are delayed of their launch here.Feels really downhearted.
    I hope these get introduced in India some day... some day (fingers 🤞)
