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
