Built around Benda's custom - cruiser motorcycle platform, the 2025 Benda Napoleonbob 250 utilizes a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 25.5 HP (18.6 kW) at 9,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 25 Nm (18.4 lb-ft) at 5,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through chain final drive. With a specific output of 102.4 HP per liter and a 3,500 rpm working window between peak torque (5,500 rpm) and peak power (9,000 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Napoleonbob 250 measures 182 kg (401 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.14 HP/kg (7.14 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 748 mm (29.4 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,545 mm (60.8 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 9.5-liter (2.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 120 km/h (75 mph).
