The Napoleon Bob 250 embraces the bobber style of the 1940s. Clean lines and reduced forms characterize the model. Chrome accents and high-quality finishes emphasize the classic design, which blends with modern elements.

The Napoleon Bob 250 is powered by a liquid-cooled 249 cc V-twin engine, delivering 25.5 hp at 9,000 rpm. The maximum torque is 25 Nm at 5,500 rpm. It features a 6-speed transmission and a slipper clutch. The trapezoidal-design telescopic fork offers 95 mm of travel, while the rear dual shock absorber system provides 38 mm of travel.

The Napoleon Bob 250 invites you to (light) cruising.

The Napoleon Bob 250 features a braking system with a 300 mm disc and 4-piston calipers at the front, as well as a 240 mm disc and 2-piston caliper at the rear. Additionally, ABS and a traction control system (TCS) are integrated. The seat height is 750 mm, the fuel tank capacity is 9.5 liters, and the weight is 182 kg. With a top speed of 120 km/h, this cruiser feels more at home in urban environments.

Benda's specification regarding the payload is puzzling. According to the datasheet, it is just 75 kilograms. We hope this is a typo, otherwise, the selection of 1000PS testers will be limited...
