Benelli Imperiale 400 Expert Opinion

Good Things
- Gets modern-classic styling
- Accessible seat height
- Good sales, service backup
Could be Better
- Misses out on tube-less tyres
- Gets analogue instrument cluster
- Pillion-seat isn’t comfortable

BikeWale's Take

The Imperiale 400 is an entry-level cruiser motorcycle from Benelli. It was launched to take on the high-selling Royal Enfield Classic 350, but haven’t been able to accomplish that. Blame the lack of brand appeal. While the Imperiale 400 does manage to showcase its modern-classic styling, it fails to entice the customers due to lack of modern elements like digital instrument cluster, tubeless tyres and LED lights.

Road Test Review Benelli Imperiale 400 BS6: First Ride Review

02 October 2020Neil Nair

We recently spent a decent amount of time on the BS6-compliant Imperiale 400’s saddle, to tell you what the modern-classic motorcycle is all about.

04 November 2019Janak Sorap

We are keen to know how the Imperiale 400 stacks up against the Chennai-based bike maker’s cash cow and the resurrected Jawa. But, for now, we’ll be confining our opinions to the newest product Benelli India has to offer and how well it sits in the market. Here’s the first ride review of the all-new Imperiale 400.
