Key Things to Know about Imperiale 400

Upside
  • Refined engine with oodles of bottom-end torque, comfortable riding posture, big bike feel, gear position indicator and digital fuel gauge
Downside
  • An expensive proposition, wooden brakes that lack bite and feel, odd position of the footpegs tend to hit your shins while moving the bike around
Expert's Conclusion

In our opinion, the Benelli Imperiale 400 is a wholesome package that offers a vibe-free motor full of character. Its comfortable riding posture and well-balanced suspension setup add to its riding experience. Having said that, the recent price hike due to the BS6 update has made the Imperiale 400 a rather expensive proposition.

I'm having benelli imperial 400. I'm using this for about an year. It was a ultimate bike of this segment which provides clear road presence and unpackable riding experience apart from its positive side it has some cons too.The availability of spares is very much complicated. I'm having searching clutch cable for more than 3 weeks but everywhere out of stock. I couldn't match other brand vehicles clutch cable. If anyone having solution please share with me.

superb in style and every way

True to its name, the classic Benelli Imperiale 400 offers a thrilling riding journey to the owners. It provides an impressive fusion of good performance and functionality for all. I admire its powerful engine, with which it ensures a reliable drive through for city commute while maintaining the fuel efficiency at its best. Its fuel tank capacity is good. In-built with safety elements, it assures safety and ease on the road. The bike has a sleek finish design and is compact and spacy at the same time.

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.

Look classy

Benelli Imperiale 400 gets a modern class styling and with smooth engine. It gives low vibration and is a good looking retro bike. It is one of the longest in the segment and give high stability on highway. The engine is very refined and feels most comfortable. It gives decent real world conditions mileage and offers good ride quality but heat management is not good. It gets decent hardware and good braking performance but is a high and bulky bike. It is a feature loaded bike but gives high service cost.

Q. How can I buy Benelli Imperiale 400?
  • For the availability, we would suggest you to please connect with the nearest authorized dealer in your city as it depends on their stock book. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
Q. I am really confused between Benelli 400, Royal Enfield classic 350 and Jawa standard, please suggest?
  • Selecting the right bike would depend on certain factors such as your budget, preference of the segment, performance figures, features required, etc. The 2021 Classic 350 is an all-new bike! Everything from the motor and frame to the underpinnings and ergonomics has been reworked. Coming to the bike’s hardware, the new Classic uses a new fatter 41mm telescopic fork up front and a twin shock setup at the rear. Even the brakes have been updated to Bybre units at both ends which clamp on to a 300mm front and a 270mm rear disc brake. Moving onto the ergonomics, the Classic 350 features a new rider and pillion seat with thicker cushioning which improves ride comfort. The handlebar sits taller, offering an upright riding posture. Coming to the styling, the bike looks pretty similar to the outgoing model, however, it's been cleverly redesigned. On the other hand, the Benelli Imperiale 400 is a wholesome package that offers a vibe-free motor full of character. Its comfortable riding posture and well-balanced suspension setup add to its riding experience. Having said that, the recent price hike due to the BS6 update has made the Imperiale 400 a rather expensive proposition. Whereas, the Jawa uses a short-stroke, performance-oriented engine with a 6-speed transmission. Sure it’s fast, but it lacks the retro laidback charm of an under the square engine, something we think is crucial for a buyer in this segment. The 293cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine generates 26.51PS of power and 27.05Nm of torque on the Jawa. Moreover, we would suggest you take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
  • Go baneli 400
Q. I need to purchase the Back wheel disc this for the Belle 400cc?
  • For that, we'd suggest you please visit the nearest authorized service center as they would be able to assist you better. Follow the link and select your city accordingly for service centers.
  • You can get it from showroom
Q. Can I upgrade to alloy wheels for my Imperiale 400 from aftermarket?
  • You may opt for alloy wheels for your Benelli Imperiale 400, however, we'd suggest you to stick with the stock spoke wheels as they best serve the purpose of touring. For more details on the same, we'd suggest you to get in touch with the nearest authorized service center as they would assist you with details. You may click on the link and select your desired city for service centers.
  • I don’t think there is anyone in India who provides alloy wheels for Imperiale. Also, needless to say Benelli will never provide it. So I don’t think we have option here to choose and we have to stick to spoke wheels only.
  • If I retain the spoke wheels do we have any other ways to face the challenges coming with using a spoke wheel for touring

Q. Any tubeless spoke or alloy tyre options for the Imperialle 400 ? Also how soon will the spare parts be made available ? Is Benenlli Imperialle 400 worth buying over Classic 350 ?
  • No, there is no option for tubeless tyres or alloy wheels for Imperial 400 from the brand side. The Classic 350 has tremendous emotional appeal and is still in some ways a very desirable motorcycle. But the fact of the matter is that it is now a decade old, and its capabilities feel severely limited in this company. Taking all these things into consideration, there is one clear winner here, and that is the Imperiale. It might not be the most special looking motorcycle here or the best performing, but it tugs at your heartstrings every time you ride it, you’re always planning your next ride before the current one is even finished. It is the bike you most want to be on, and for that simple reason, it is our pick of this segment. You may compare both the bikes accordingly. Do take a test ride for better clarity. Check out authorised dealership details.

Q. Can kick start be installed from company? What is the mileage in city? What is the periodical maintenance cost and are spare parts easily available?
  • Installing a kick start would not be a feasible idea and the company is not offering any such option as well. Also, it would be a challenging task to install a kick start in the aftermarket. The Imperiale 400 is powered by a BS6-compliant 374cc air-cooled and fuel-injected single-cylinder engine that generates 21PS and 29Nm. In our tests, the Imperiale 400 delivered 33.49kmpl in the city and 36.65kmpl on highways. As for the maintenance, the availability of parts would depend on the availability of service centers in your city. We would suggest you to get in touch with the nearest authorized dealership for more details. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision.

Imperiale 400 Key Highlights

Design: There’s no change in design. The Imperiale sticks to its neo-retro styling with design cues from classic British motorcycles. You have a simple yet elegant front fender, a classic dome-shaped headlight that flows into a slender fuel tank with tank grips, and minimal graphics. Components like the turn indicators, rearview mirrors, and pillion grab handles are finished in chrome. The rear section is reminiscent of a Thunderbird but looks a bit disproportionate compared to the rest of the bike. A pair of spoked wheels complete the overall look of the bike.
