What’s New About The New Benelli Imperiale?10 Jul, 2020 | By Team ZigWheels
Recently Asked User Questions
- Beneli maintance is on 1000 km where first 3 services is labour charge is free which will cost you a inr of ₹600 and first service cost upto 3000 and second at 6000km which will be a₹3000 itself as same as jawa maintance cost
- At which km you done the 1st free service?In the above comment of Mr. Febin, he said that he paid only inr600 for first 3 free service?
- I made done my first service that have added paid service charge of Rs1982
- No its not so.... i have been using imperiale 400 for last 10 months and drive for about 60-70 km daily but never felt that. Of course don't forget you are driving 400 CC so a bit of warmth you will feel but it does not get heated for sure...
- Engine heat is a real problem as of now. On enquiry at the service centre I was informed that the heating will be considerably reduced after the first service.
- I took a ride in city for 15km but i felt very heat on my right leg, especially while waiting in the signal.Kindly tell me how to rectify this
- I have a 2019 RE Classic 350 (not the Signals edition), as well as a Benelli Imperiale 400 which was delivered to me on February 1, 2020. I use both the motorcycles on alternate days. I find that using the RE is easier in city traffic because of its low weight, right turning radius and revving engine. For long rides on open stretches of the highway, the Benelli outshines the RE because of it’s smooth engine, vibration free operation at higher speeds and stability due to it’s heavy weight. The Benelli is difficult to get in and out of right parking spots because of it’s larger dimensions and heavier weight. You have to consider the environment in which you are going to primarily ride before making a decision. In my opinion, both are excellent motorcycles.
- I have used the Royal Enfield Electra 350 for around 6 years which is quite similar to the Classic 350 except for the heavier engine crank. I feel the RE has an edge over the Imperiale 400 in city traffic due to the smaller turning radius and lesser body weight. It may also offer better mileage. I consider the Imperiale 400 as much superior on many other counts.
- No doubt, imperial 400,only issue is service cost and service centres, but if you wait, you can get new RE which will be on new chassis and new engine without vibrations

Imperiale 400Elegance with Powerful Performance
A Classic sportfisherman, the Benelli Imperiale 400 adroitly combines strong interpretation with timeless indulgence. Its reliable 374cc Mechanism guarantees a staid and energetic ride, which makes it the full option for both megacity commutes and tardy passages. The traditional instruments and antique- themed bodywork of the motorbike inspire a feeling of literal supplication in its two wheeler. Although the riding experience is bettered by its affable running, the grand package might be farther bettered by better retardation interpretation. With its tasteful Expression and dynamic capability, the Benelli Imperiale 400 is a name agent that provides riders with a strong but traditional road ride.

Imperiale 4004.2Rider footrest
I had test ride with heavy weight plum pillion rider. Didn't cross 60km/hr speed. Posting some pros & cons in my view.PROS-- looks are super nice to fall in love with it. Handling is vert comfortable & good. The sitting comfort is excellent. Engine is super smooth. Suspension is too nice. Breaking is also good. Pickup is good. Its heavy but weight isn't felt while riding. Overall built quality & design is excellent. CONS--The major issue is engine heat. Heat isn't noticed when bike is in motion. But when its halted we can actually feel the heat on calf & thighs. The gear shift lever is too long for mid size shoe & heal shift lever is absent. There is no place for tool kit storage. the rider footrest is large & comfortable but its much extended outward which keeps brushing & hitting the calf. The pillion seat is independent but there is no option to detach it. The company doesn't provide optional backrest for pillion rider as accessories. Don't know about its fuel economy & service cost & aftersales service.

Imperiale 400Comfortable cruisers
It is one of the most comfortable cruisers that I’ve owned to date. Wonderful riding posture, Minimal or almost no vibrations at over 100kmph, A beautiful console to look at while riding, a Neat and clean paint job and most importantly! pretty dedicatedly assembled motorbike which is a delight to a rider's eye. (bhp and torque are the two totally out of syllabus subjects) the main concern that I have with Benelli is their service, I live in Guwahati, Assam and the dealer here is running an entire service station with just one mechanic and that too an amateur.The only thing they seem to know is an oil change and replacement of parts and the strangest of’em all is that you can’t purchase any parts and service on your own, not even the engine oil. My bike’s running a mileage of 20 to 22 km and they couldn’t figure out the reason why !!!! without proper after-sales service, i don’t believe any company could survive this forever-growing competitive market of motorbikes no matter how good is the product.

Imperiale 4004.2For me it was love
For me it was love at first sight. I saw the ad on Facebook and fell for it. I was eagerly waiting for the price to be announced and booked the red one the same day. After more than three months' of waiting I got my hands on the bike on 6th of February. The first thing that struck me during the test-ride was the refinement and absolute quality. The engine offers quite powerful performance and urges you to twist the grip further. Ride quality is excellent. The bike is more suited for long highway rides but it handles quite well in city traffic, except for the slightly large turning radius. The retro looks are simply amazing. I am still in the process of running-in the engine, so I can only say that mileage is in excess of 30 kmpl. The exhaust has a muted roar that is so thrilling both on the highways as well as the city roads. Engine heat is a real problem and I hope it will reduce after the running-in period. 06/03/2020:I got back the bike after the first free service at 1000 kms and the service charge was a mere Rs. 1365. I need to go for a ride and check whether the engine heat has been reduced. I was told by the Service manager that it will come down since the engine oil has been changed from the normal to a synthetic one.

With its sturdy 300cc Mechanism, the Keeway V302C Mechanism provides a smooth and affable ride that fluently blends into floating emprises.

It is the entry level premium crusier bike with brillant and commandable look and design. It looks good and give good seat height with great road presence.

It gives good fuel efficiency and massive fuel tank capacity. Its refinement levle is decent but there is a limited service and brand value and has a lacks of sales.

V302C1.0Special features
I recently went to the keeway benelli shop in delhi to purchase a bike, And my experience with the executive named maninder was incredibly unpleasant.I bought a keeway v302c bike on his advice, And to my disappointment, It turned out to be one of the worst motorcycles i have ever driven.From the beginning, The bike's engine was defective and had a lot of vibration.It was tough to drive and caused a lot of stress.When i tried to discuss this with maninder, He was rude and unresponsive.He took no responsibility, And the customer services were absolutely poor.Moreover, The motorcycle's configuration could have been better and seemed average.The bike's performance was poor, And i did not get my money's worth.The bike was also costly and had no special features that justified its high cost.My experience with the keeway v302c bike and maninder at the showroom could have been better.I would only suggest this bike to people searching for a reliable and comfortable ride.The customer service offered by maninder at the keeway benelli dealership was horrible and disappointing.

V302C1.0Occur close
I had ordered a bike from t-1 riders (keeway showroom, Delhi), And delivery was scheduled to occur close to forum mall.I arrived at the place on time, But to my astonishment, There was no sign of the rental firm.I tried phoning customer service 991****475 for about two hours, But no one answered.Eventually i got to a showroom located at a different location, But when i got there, Everyone had already departed for the day.After some time, A customer service representative eventually answered the phone and began making excuses for his inability to contact me.The biggest surprise came when he informed me that the delivery site close to forum mall was no longer active.The company has very bad management and customer care services as well.Do not ever contact this company ever in future.

V302C1.0Keeway showroom
My brother and i had gone to this keeway showroom near rajouri garden in delhi to purchase a bike for my brother.The staff there had zero knowledge about the technicalities of automobiles and expected us not to question them so much; they could not help us with the trial run too.When my brother asked them about some features of a particular bike, The staff did not give us a clear response.They were very uncooperative, Which made me feel uncomfortable around them.It seems that they did not want us to buy a bike there but were forcibly showing us around.They (nakul and amit)were rude to a few other customers and us at the showroom too.I was not too fond of their service, It was one of my worst experiences, And i would not suggest anyone visit in the future.
