Viewed from the front, its LED headlight and thick fork resemble that of the Harley-Davidson Fat Bob

The wheel design, meanwhile, looks similar to that on the Benda V302C

The 494cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine is a rebored version of the unit from the Honda Rebel 500. The China-spec bike makes a claimed 54PS and 50.5Nm, with a top speed of 160kmph

Sadly, chances of the CU 525 coming here are remote, and you’d do better with something like the Benelli 502C or the Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650
This 500cc cruiser gives off serious Harley-Davidson vibes
