Q. I took a trail ride on Benelli 400 for 15 mints but felt heat on my right leg, I heard Benelli bike get heated very fast compare to Interceptor. - Imperiale 400?
  • 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

Q. Which is better Royal Enfield Classic 350 signals or Benelli Imperiale 400?
  • 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

    Elegance 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.

    Rider 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.

    Comfortable 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.

    For 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.

    Benelli imperiale 

    Benelli imperiale is a bike guys will love, It just makes people head turn for sure.The best part is it has no vibrations, Yes its heavy bike, With the distribution of weight you will never feel it.The road presence, Engine refinement, Build quality, Ruggedness suspension, Retro look is all a plus point.Turning radius is very less, Uturn will be challenging.Heat issues in traffic jams is evident else where not a problem at all.Rear tyre and tube is not available in market size is 130 80/18.Coming to the 0 star moment : they have an awesome product but service and parts cost, Will sink this product to the bottom.Exhorbiant service cost and parts cost will make you bleed.A simple example clutch cable and installation will cost 800 where as the same product same spec of himalayan will cost 300.Lack of service centers and inexperienced mechanics.Cost of replacement, Availability of parts to name a few are drawbacks.Guys at adishwars auto, Work on service and availability of spare parts at economical price that's the key for success in india.Do good marketing really not enough.

    Travel comfortably in style 

    Specially built bikes have always amazed me and specially Yezdi Roadster. Looking at the features and specialities this bike offers, I decided to buy this vehicle last year. It was available for an affordable price in exchange of a lot of modern features. The mileage is good as provided, clean and good ground clearance and powerful engine that it comes with. My favourite feature is the smooth and comfortable ventures with this vehicle. I would definitely put this on recommendation list for others. The colour ranges are aesthetic and many sets of variants are also available.

    Roadster Elegance, Yezdi Legacy. 

    More distant than Clearly getting around is involved in riding my Yezdi Roadster. This Classic sportfisherman has a sense of Yezdi rubric in everyride. This motorcycle is exercised for More distant than exclusively exchanging. It all comes down to carrying out the tricks and Classic supplication that the Roadster type provides. The dateless face and smooth interpretation of the Roadster show Yezdi's devotion to the Classic sportfisherman experience in everyride. It's not Clearly a bike. The Design of the Yezdi Roadster reflects the rider's love of stretch floating and pays homage to rubric and faculty.

    Good Bike 

    Boasting excellent handling and a fantastic road grip, Yezdi is a brand worth considering, especially if you're contemplating a Royal Enfield. While it may be slightly more expensive than the Classic 350 and Meteor, it proves to be a value-for-money bike that is worth trying at least once.

    Yezdi roadster 

    I brought the yezdi roadster in april 2022.I had originally planned for meteor 350, But after giving this bike a test drive, I went for this for its killer looks and mind blowing torque.Now coming to the bike itself, Finish is good.The welding works could have been better though.The bike no doubt feels premium and is a head turner on road.Driveability- this is surely a good drive.The weight management is very good as the bike doesn't feel heavy while driving.Cornering and city ride with moderate traffic is easy.2nd, 3rd and 4th gears are great for pickup and overtaking while 5th and 6th gears are excellent on tours.However, Driving in city requires frequent gear shifting, As the bike tends to knock at lower speeds on 3rd and 4th gear too, Approx about at 30-40kmph.The radiator fans kicks off quiet frequently in city drive and may give an offending fan noise to the rider.The exhaust from the radiator is, I would say, Misplaced to the footrest which sends off very hot air to the feet.You cannot drive this without proper foot gear as after sometime you can definitely feel your feet burn.But, Given the excellent torque, Weight management, Balanced and good wheelbase driving this beast is fun.I didn't feel any pain in the wrists after long drives which is common when i ride few other bikes.The ground clearance of this bike is very good and it feels very stable even at uneven roads, But the suspension is set to hard so you can feel the bumps.The headlights are led, With not so good light throw even at high beam and you may need after market lights if you drive at night on highways or if offroading.Mileage- this can be deal breaker for many but on road mileage varies widely from approx 22-25 in city traffic to 30 approx on highways.Accessories- presently aftermarket accessories are quiet limited but will grow with time.Service cost- service cost is bit higher with the first service costing around 1900 rupees, But motul engine oil and quality consumables were given.Overall a good bike if you like good torque, Speed and retro looks.

    Certainly! Here's a review 

    The adventure began on a classic yezdi bike, A true icon of the open road.The ride took us through winding mountain roads, Offering breathtaking views of lush green valleys and towering peaks.The powerful thump of the yezdi engine echoed through the serene landscape, Creating a symphony of adventure.The bike's sturdy build and comfortable seating made it ideal for long rides.The ride quality was surprisingly smooth, Even on bumpy terrain, Thanks to its robust suspension.The powerful engine delivered a thrilling combination of torque and speed, Making uphill climbs effortless and highway cruising a delight.One standout feature of the yezdi was its timeless design, Which turned heads wherever we went.The chrome accents and classic silhouette evoked a sense of nostalgia while commanding respect on the road.However, The yezdi thirst for fuel was noticeable, But it was a minor trade-off for the exhilarating experience it offered.Overall, Riding the yezdi was an unforgettable adventure, Blending classic charm with modern performance for a ride that left a lasting impression.

    Touring bike 

    Probably, I went for a test drive with over expectations, I.Wasnt impressed at all after my test drive 9th block jayanagar, Bangalore showroom.Here are few.Points 1.Initially throttle performance is good in comparison to re meteor, However ride experience on meteor is like butter smooth, While roadster is very rough and not refined.2.In case your idea is touring bike, Roadster is a.Confused ergonomics.It's neither here or there.3.Gears don't slot well.On the dashboard it showed gear is in 0 or neutral, And then opened the clutch.Bike simply jumped, Stalled and fell.I wasn't hurt thankfully, But had to pay for minor damages, For none of my fault.At this price point if yezdi can't get their gear shifts right, Then they will never get it.So.Simply no to this new yezdis roadster and no competition to re meteor which wins this hands down.
