We just need these bikes in the UK there's nothing that really is pushing design in any way like this.. benda needs to come to the UK.

[@eddywave3315]

Agreed, I’m sure it would turn heads there! I see Benda is getting more available in the world, hope to see it in the UK ASAP✊

That's exactly what I was going to ask. It would sell like hot cakes.

[@robbs808]

We have the Keeyway V-Cruise (125&300) and RKV125c so hopefully they'll bring this over too, I'd buy one.

[@eddywave3315]

@@robbs808 I think they will, but it’s useless to ask the guys from the dealership, they don’t have any idea about Benda abroad

[@gkasimir]

That's one beautiful bomber style bike and beautifully designed. The vtwin looks quite large and the sound is very throaty. How cool is that. Wish they had this baby in Indonesia. They only released the Benda v252c under the name of Keeway. It's about the same bike in black in the background of your video. Thanks for sharing your review and on all the other bikes. Wish they had those bikes back then in 2005 - 2009 when I lived in Beijing and Chengdu. All we had available during this time frame was the 250cc Regal Raptor chopper and other 250cc bikes. I modified the heck out of this Regal Raptor to make it more like a chopper with the rear license plate holder from an HD and had custom exhaust made by a Chengdu corner Exhaust shop (they made exhausts for cars). They helped me develop those pipes since they seemed to have as much fun with it like I did. Good days.

[@eddywave3315]

Yeah, recently Chinese manufacturers went crazy. They stopped copying other bikes, and started making new, unique product! This Benda will give a run for their money to pretty much any other cruiser in terms of design (and performance, in this displacement) the biggest issue with this particular brand is reliability, but other than that, it’s incredibly good especially given the price! And all the other brands such as CFmoto, QJMotor, Kove improve faster than other brands from abroad. Hope Benda and other brands will get to other Asian countries! I can’t wait to ride them out of China

[@Rendraco79]

thanks for the video, honesty is a tresure.

[@eddywave3315]

I appreciate it! Means a lot to me) Next reviews are Chinchilla 450 and mt 450, thanks for watching 🤜🤛

[@VictoriaStobbie]

Bro I definitely want to go on a group ride with you mate. You seem super cool. Loved the vid.

[@eddywave3315]

I appreciate it! I’m currently in Qingdao, might go for a trip sometime soon) where are you?

[@sirojsamadov3906]

I've had my eye on this bike for about a year. In my country Benda is not imported, so it is not possible for me to try it. And it is very difficult to find good reviews on it. Everything is in Chinese and even with translation it was hard to understand them. I am very grateful to you for this review. Although short, but very informative. Everything I wanted to know, I learned. Like I said, we don't have any Benda dealers. So I will be ordering it through third party shipping services and your review was very important to me to do this. Thank you very much!

[@eddywave3315]

Honestly, even though I’m angry with Benda for telling me that I can make a review and then stopping me like that) I freaking liked the bike man! I almost wanted to say something bad about it after this, but it was really fun to ride!!! As I said, the best sound in the class! The best look! And it pulls from the bottom!!! Weight is on the heavier side of the spectrum, but still maneuverable, and easy going (and for me it’s a huge thing) has nice electronics package, and all of that is for 3700$ The biggest concern as I’ve said is that guys who rent bikes out for business told me they don’t trust Benda’s reliability, and I heard some complaints about it before ( in my Benda 500BD review the rear suspension was out of whack, and it was almost a new bike) But my initial impressions were much higher than my expectations! I’m still looking for another Benda 450 Napoleon/Chinchilla for a decent review where I can scrutinize it properly, will do my best to make it happen! Good luck with your purchase, hope it goes well and you won’t overpay much! Highly appreciate your support, it means a lot!!!🤝🤝🤝🤜🤛

[@sirojsamadov3906]

@eddywave3315 yeah, that's really bad from their side. But as I said, you could give all the necessary information about this bike. Thank you!

Man I'm so jelous😂. Wish benda MCs come to the Philippines.

[@eddywave3315]

I want to see Benda in Philippines too! Hope it comes soon, especially given how much you like cruisers there. Btw I still hope to make a comprehensive review with acceleration, braking, and street experience. Just need to find someone who can give me a bike

[@jeromedavidrapal7512]

Benelli PH is taking reservations for Napoleon and Chinchilla.

[@gitaramaker101]

Can you compare this bike with the Eliminator 450. It is also torque-y with 49hp and really quick for a cruiser. Love your videos

[@eddywave3315]

It would be great, but really hard now, for now I still want to find Benda Napoleon for a “legit” test ride, coz as you could see the dealership wasn’t very helpful unfortunately) And I haven’t seen a single Eliminattor 450 by now here in China, if I will, I’ll make a review for sure 👍 I’m very interested

[@user-xh4ch8rd7f]

Ohhhh, I RLY like this bike! And price is so yummy damn

hello Dizimini, is the suzuki gsx-8s available in China yet? would love to hear your take on it.

[@Sr.D]

In Spain benda is sold as keeway, Chinese brands are going to do what Japanese did on the 70's

[@eddywave3315]

Thank you! That’s important information for me, does it mean something in Spanish btw?

[@Sr.D]

@@eddywave3315 nothing, I thought keeway was sold in china too, it's how Benda V2 125 and 300cc bikes are named in Europe

[@cross3123]

What would you recommend more from 3 bikes Napoleon, CU525 or CLC 450 ?

[@eddywave3315]

I value maneuverability a lot, so I would choose CLC or Voge, but Napoleon looks better, and sounds great

[@tempesta7338]

Gonna wait a year to see how it goes

[@eddywave3315]

That’s a smart move!

[@markc7842]

Sounds good but crazily loud. I'll wait for 1000+cc model

[@eddywave3315]

Yes it’s loud, but the sound is still pleasant, you should have heard Benda Black Flag500😂 That was painful to listen to 😅

[@orhancebi5288]

Best looking bobber is still the Indian scout bobber.

[@eddywave3315]

Indian Scout Bobber is without doubt a beautiful motorcycle. But in terms of small cc bobbers this one is the best looking one so far! Let alone the price of 3700$ bobbers! But as I mentioned in the video, reliability might be an issue, so there is always a trade off…

[@zylynlamis9285]

Is it a single seater or it ccomes with extra seat?

[@eddywave3315]

It’s a single seater, but they have pretty much the same bike with a passenger seat, it’s called Benda Chinchilla 450, the review is on the channel! Enjoy 🤜🤛

[@RohanPL]

It looks awesome to bad they haven't put second passenger optional/foldable seat.

[@eddywave3315]

Agreed! They made another motorcycle instead 😂 but I really loved this Napoleon 450 design!

[@sheriffshifty1953]

50 hp...almost 1Lb torq per hp!!!! torqui??? AF! I'ts like a Harley WLA if it where Olive Drab,as a returning G.I. from ww2,converting his wla into a Bobber...in the early daya of Hot Rodding and bike gangs. Gotta love that!

[@eddywave3315]

There is a small confusion, it has 45 nm of torque which is around 33.2 lb/torque, it was still quite torquey though

[@someguy5831]

Is this coming to the US?

[@eddywave3315]

I don’t know, but I see that Benda is getting more and more available around the world. I think the US is there main priority! Hope to see it there

[@pavv1846]

What about the size for man over high 180 cm?

[@eddywave3315]

This is me!) I’m 1.85 cm. It felt comfortable, I would say it was a bit more aggressive than a usual cruiser (Rebel 500 for example) but very comfortable nonetheless

in Russia it costs $7,500. Is it worth buying for that kind of money?

[@eddywave3315]

It’s twice the money compared with China, but this design is something no other bike can give you in this price range. I loved it, the reliability is getting better in my opinion but still not the best, if you get nice one or two years guarantee, I would have given it a chance

Benda is used widely in asia outside of china (india, sea, etc). Motorcycle reviewers actually gave positive review for benda bikes. You should research more, there’s some good chinese manufacturers like benda, mbp, and wuling. Chinese knock off is always bad but this is an outlier. Edit : I’m not chinese and i usually dislike chinese products but i love automotives and will give credits where it is due.
