The Imperiale 400 is Benelli’s modern-retro motorcycle that goes against the likes of the Royal Enfield Classic 350 and Jawa Standard. The Imperiale 400’s price is higher than its rivals, which went further high during the BS6 transition. However, Benelli recently reduced its price by Rs 10,000 by increasing the degree of localisation in its production.
In terms of design, the Imperiale is a quintessential vintage bike with a round headlamp with a chrome casing flanked by round, chrome finished turn indicators. It also gets more chrome on the tail lamp, mirrors, levers and spoke wheels. It is built around a steel-double cradle frame that holds a peanut-shaped fuel tank and a split-seat setup. Benelli has equipped the bike with a twin-pod instrument cluster with chrome bezels that give it a retro look.
The Imperiale 400 comes powered by a 374cc, single-cylinder motor that produces 20.7bhp of power and 29Nm of torque. Interestingly, these performance numbers are higher as compared to its BS4 counterpart. The engine comes mated to a five-speed gearbox. Suspension duties are handled by 41mm telescopic forks up front and pre-load adjustable twin shock absorbers at the rear. Meanwhile, braking hardware comprises of 300mm disc brake upfront and a 240mm brake at the rear assisted by dual-channel ABS.
The Benelli Imperiale 400 is offered in three colour options- black, red and silver.

Benelli Imperiale is a bike guys will love, It just makes people head turn for sure.The best part is it has no vibrations, Yes its heavy bike, With the distribution of weight you will never feel it.The road presence, Engine refinement, Build quality, Ruggedness suspension, Retro look is all a plus point.Turning radius is very less, U-turn will be challenging. Heat issues in traffic jams are evident other than that it is not a problem at all. Coming to the 0 star moment : they have an awesome product but service and parts cost. Minimal service centers and inexperienced mechanics. Cost of replacement, Availability of parts to name a few are drawbacks.Marketing really not enough.

Overall, this bike is good. The comfort is also great, making it a good value-for-money product. It offers excellent power with enough torque to easily pull a truck. The design is nice, and it doesn't heat up much. This bike is a must-consider and is better than the Classic 350, with less vibration.

Never Trust Benelli.

Syed Sadiq
Firstly, Don't fall for the false sales pitch from these guys. They just want to sell bikes all on false notes, the parts cost a lot just for reference Clutch plates costs around 7500 + 1200 for installation.. Which is crazy and the durability is very low .Maintanence is very expensive after 2nd service.I would not recommend this bike for daily commute.

Worst bike experience.... Not recommended for buying this worst bike.. Worst service centre in chennai nandhanam
2 years ago
Naveenkumar
My first impression got by service cost but when a new bike was given for the first service after one-month bike got stopped in the middle road and then taken a bike at my own expense of spending 2000rs in a tempo van and then showroom giving an ignition problem ok that too fine. Recently on Feb '23 given a bike clutch plate change in 8k km then after a month in April '23 again got an issue with gear shifting but the showroom person told me that has a problem in the engine sector told.

Do not buy this bike
2 years ago
Vihang Mhatre
The bike performance is very good.But when it comes to maintenance it is too costly.Every now & then you will have a problem.When you have a service station 40km from your location very hard to find a spare part for Benelli in my location.The average of this bike can get up to 25kmpl. The only reason not to buy this is because of the service station.

Very costly to maintain and not user friendly
2 years ago
Brahm Prakash
First of all its very costly compared to other bikes available in this segment. Furthermore, the maintenance cost is 4-5 times high as compared to normal costs. Support for this bike is also very rare, with no alloy wheels, and low mileage. Better to go for royal Enfield. Benelli does not provide any accessories.
