Benelli Leoncino vs BMW R nine T Comparison

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.

The BMW R nineT is a beautiful looking modern classic motorcycle, with a perfect blend of the classic styling of old BMW motorcycles from the 1960s with the latest technological advancements of engineering and electronics. It gets an air-cooled boxer twin engine and offers solid performance. But it is heavy and the engine tends to heat up as well. Not to mention the high cost of ownership that is required.
