I always dreamed about owning a cruise bike i have booked this bike long back but the booking was cancelled i lost hope of buying this bike and i wasn't thinking about buying any bike since i mostly use car. One day i got an expected call from the showroom saying bikes are available. Since the first time my booking was cancelled my dad had zero interest in buying me that again. We went out for a work he was tired and sleeping without letting him know i took him to the showroom and showed him the bike that's it there he saw the bike and was impressed. That's it that's how i got my baby black.

The showroom salesmen know all the complainants and still, they lie bout the bike.
Good ergonomics for long highway rides, but not at all made city and off roads, even though claimed ground clearance is better than royal enfield, the double stand is at a height of just 50-60mm from the ground and hits even fr a minor bump in the city.
Service cost is too high, and have to wait a lot for spares,
I changed my brake pads twice, first at 6k kms and next at 14k.
Due to the delay, the motor problem bike had to be towed to the showroom as there is no kick start at 13k kms.
Now there is a front abs problem.
And the major and dangerous issue is frequent alignment problems, cuz of rusting of spokes. I had to get the wheel aligned twice just within 15k kms.
(summarising - brakes, spoke wheels, service cost, time-consuming services, no after-market spare parts, high rpm issue, and poor electrical wiring are the major issues).

The bike seems to be very good. But on road price is about 2.6 for punjab. If one has this much budget why not interceptor 650 it's on road price for punjab is 3.04. In case of benelli the service and spares can be a problem as it was in case of fiat. All parts might be imported means no local vendor my be supplying parts thus spares will be very costly. Resale value can't be expected in benelli. Keeping in view all such reasons enfield meteor can be a better choice. Benelli seems to be very good but it should have been a choice if it's price is lower.

Have rode more than 2500 kms.
1. It was readily available by mid October 2020. After sales procedures are a little slower but ok.
2. After first service, heating issue and the little issue have been completely resolved. Beautiful beast this one is.
3. Looks awesome, Has a serious road presence, torque is real good on all ranges.
4. Servicing cost is bit on higher side but up to the mark.

Benelli Imperiale 400 BS6 Long Term Review: Touring and Final Report

30 April 2021

Neil Nair

The Benelli Imperiale 400 was nearing the end of its tenure in the BikeWale Long Term fleet and I wanted to ride it for a longer distance before handing it back. So, just like most other memorable road trips, my road trip with the Benelli Imperiale 400 was (mostly)...

Benelli Imperiale 400 Long Term Review Report 2: City Riding

23 February 2021

Neil Nair

We've been riding the Benelli Imperiale400 for a while now- around 2000km if we talk numbers. And the majority of those kilometres have been clocked riding in the city. While my commute mostly consists of open stretches of road and fast-moving traffic, there were more than...

Benelli Imperiale 400 BS6 Long Term Review: Introduction

11 December 2020

Neil Nair

While we have ridden the Imperiale before, it was only for a couple of days. This time the modern retro stays with us for a healthy 180 days through which I will be riding it in and around the city, doing some intercity commutes, and a couple of long-distance rides too. So,...
