Benda Napoleonbob 500 2025

The Benda Napoleonbob 500 impresses with its striking bobber look, a deep 695 Millimetre seat and low-maintenance belt drive. Its relaxed riding performance, comfortable saddle and solid braking system with ABS make it a pleasant cruiser. With a tank capacity of 16 litres, the range is also suitable for everyday use. However, it does not have much maximum lean angle, it quickly comes to a standstill and is rather sluggish due to its wide tyres and long wheelbase. The throttle response is also rough and there may be a lack of storage space for some. A stylish bobber for relaxed touring - but nothing for sporty riders or tight bends.

Striking looks: attracts a lot of attention, especially in the city, wide 180 rear tyre and coherent bobber aesthetics

Low seat: at 695 Millimetres, very accessible even for smaller riders

Pleasant cruising: relaxed riding style with good smoothness

Belt drive: easier to maintain than a chain and cleaner

Comfortable saddle: even longer rides are possible, no seating problems

Easy to ride: intuitive handling, especially for cruiser beginners

Good price-performance ratio: € 7.490 for a unique look and solid engine

16-litre tank: sufficient for longer rides without constant refilling

Poor maximum lean angle: touches down very quickly, especially on bumps in corners, little agility

Handling somewhat sluggish: wide tyres and long wheelbase make it more cumbersome in corners

Throttle response somewhat rough: needs a sensitive hand, can be stubborn in corners

Front braking performance limited: a single disk has natural limits, strong delay only in combination with rear brake

No storage space: must be retrofitted with tank bag or side bags
