Visually, nothing changes on the Benelli Imperiale 400. The bike continues to sport the modern-classic design language with the round headlamp, tear-drop fuel tank, dual seat, and an upright handlebar. The bike rides on a 19-inch front and 18-inch rear spoked wheels, while suspension duties are handled by telescopic front forks and dual shock absorbers at the rear. The Imperiale 400 comes with disc brakes at either end and dual-channel ABS.
