구매자가 알아야 할 사항

⚙️

Euro 5 Compliant Engine

The Imperiale 400 uses a 374cc single-cylinder, fuel-injected engine that meets Euro 5 emissions standards, making it future-proof in markets with strict regulations. The fuel injection also ensures consistent cold starts and smooth throttle response.

⚠️

Watch Vibration Levels

Owners commonly report noticeable handlebar and footpeg vibrations at highway speeds above 80 km/h due to the single-cylinder engine lacking a balancer shaft. Consider aftermarket bar-end weights and tank pad dampers if long-distance riding is planned.

💰

Modest Resale Value

The Imperiale 400 depreciates faster than Royal Enfield rivals like the Meteor 350, largely due to Benelli's smaller service network and lower brand recognition. Buying used can offer excellent value, but reselling may take longer and yield lower returns.

중고 구매자 리뷰

6.5/10
최적 대상
Budget-conscious beginners wanting retro style affordably

"Decent budget retro cruiser if you buy carefully and spend wisely."

$3,000-$4,500 used

The Imperiale 400 is Benelli doing its best Royal Enfield impression, and honestly? It's not bad at it. The parallel-twin dressed up as a single produces a genuinely pleasant, unhurried riding experience. Torque comes early, the bike feels relaxed at 60mph, and that retro styling turns heads consistently. For urban commuting and weekend blasts on B-roads, it delivers real satisfaction without demanding anything from you. Here's where used buying gets interesting though. Early examples had fueling hiccups and the build quality is noticeably inconsistent — check every bolt, every switch, every seal before handing over cash. The dealer network is thin in most markets, so independent mechanic familiarity matters enormously. Parts availability has improved but can still leave you waiting weeks. Budget for a proper service immediately after purchase regardless of claimed history.
