Equipment and finishes of the Benelli Leoncino Bobber 400 2026
Every detail is carefully integrated: the short tail, the Leoncino-style fuel tank, the air filter visible through a transparent cover, the thick tires and a removable passenger seat. All this, together with the position, brake and turn lights integrated into the rear indicators, give the rear a clean and refined appearance.
Once seated, the wide handlebars with mirrors at the ends guarantee complete control of the bike. The compact circular digital display in the center shows all the main information. The riding position is clearly cruiser-style, thanks to the forward footpegs.
The headlight maintains the LED arc characteristic of the Leoncino family. That same heritage is reflected in the fuel tank, defined by generous shapes and a narrow central section that allows the rider to integrate perfectly with the bike. A metal logo embedded into the panels completes the design.
The minimalist front fender, with the Benelli emblem, and the short rear tail emphasize the bobber character, while the powerful exhaust system also attracts attention with its double side mufflers with an overlapping arrangement, a typical feature of cruiser motorcycles.
