Benda doubles down on authentic bobber allure with the new Napoleon Bob 125—a little cruiser built for A1 license holders that refuses to compromise on the soul of its larger siblings.
At its core beats a liquid-cooled, 125 cc V-Twin engine, a rare choice in a displacement class dominated by single-cylinder commuters, cranking out 14 hp at 9,500 rpm and 10.9 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm. Power flows through a responsive six-speed gearbox backed by a slipper clutch and a rugged chain final drive. Aesthetically, it commands attention with a striking round LED headlamp, classic bar-end mirrors, and a sculpted, low-slung fuel tank. The cockpit bridges eras cleanly, pairing traditional riding cues with a crisp 4.3-inch TFT digital-analog display designed for glance-and-go readability on the fly. Inheriting its robust chassis architecture from the bigger Napoleon Bob 250, the front end features a semi-concealed telescopic fork flanked by exposed dual side dampers, while the rear relies on adjustable pre-load shock absorbers. Confidence comes standard via an ABS-equipped braking system engineered for reliable stopping power across any terrain. Available now at dealerships, the launch lineup drops in two distinct shades: Retro Green and Phantom Black.
