Kawasaki W800 Street vs Benelli Leoncino Comparison

The Kawasaki W800 is a modern classic model which pays homage to the 1960s Kawasaki W series models. With its minimalistic yet elegant design, simple lines, the W800 looks like a proper authentic retro bike. The W800 has a charmingly retro vibe to it and the performance complements that, although the engineering is completely modern. The only downside is the price, which makes it an expensive proposition.

The Benelli Leoncino is the scrambler-styled neo-retro model from Benelli, and has no direct rival in the market. The Leoncino uses the same engine as the TRK 502. It pumps out 47 bhp and 46 Nm and offers a more affordable option to the likes of the Ducati Scrambler. In India though, models like the Royal Enfield 650 Twins and the KTM 390 Duke could rival it in the Indian market, in terms of performance and specifications, and at a substantially less price.
