Kawasaki Eliminator 500 2024

The Kawasaki Eliminator 500 is a successful bike in a competitive price segment. The latest addition from the green brand offers easy handling and riding pleasure at an attractive price. Beginners, returning riders and smart bikers will all enjoy this urban cruiser. In my opinion, the Kawasaki Eliminator 500 could achieve cult status.

Handling, despite low ground clearance, an attack the twisties

Engine, good torque

Weight, 167 kg

Gearbox, excellent shifting

Seating position, comfortably neutral Driving licence class A2

Rear-view mirror, stylish but hardly any visibility to the rear tyres, IRC spongy, gives hardly any feedback

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
