With its clean lines, purposeful design, and approachable performance, the Napoleonbob 250 stands as an ideal entry point for riders seeking genuine cruiser character.
Authentic Bobber Styling with Modern Touches
The Napoleonbob 250 embodies the true soul of a vintage bobber motorcycle through its stripped-down aesthetic and thoughtful details. The cradle-type steel frame provides classic visual appeal while maintaining structural integrity, complemented by an aluminum alloy swingarm that blends tradition with lightweight performance. The 748mm seat height ensures accessibility for various riders, maintaining the low-slung profile crucial to bobber styling. Our designers preserved the signature elements that define vintage cruiser culture—the chopped fenders, solo seat arrangement, and clean tank lines—while integrating modern elements like the 3-inch round TFT display that provides essential information without disrupting the classic aesthetic. The 130/80 R18 front and 160/70 R18 rear tires complete the period-correct silhouette while delivering contemporary grip and handling characteristics.
Approachable Performance for Everyday Riding
Powering this vintage bobber motorcycle is a 249cc liquid-cooled V-twin engine that produces 25N.m of torque at 5500rpm, offering the perfect balance of usable power and rider-friendly delivery. The multi-plate oil-bath slipper clutch makes gear changes smooth and predictable, particularly valuable for riders new to the vintage cruiser experience. With a 9.5L fuel tank, the Napoleonbob 250 proves practical for daily commuting and weekend excursions alike. The chain drive system keeps maintenance straightforward, while the 71.31g/km CO₂ emissions demonstrate our commitment to responsible engineering. The 182kg curb weight ensures manageable handling at all speeds, making this an ideal machine for developing riding skills while enjoying authentic cruiser character.
Safety and Comfort for the Real World
While honoring traditional vintage bobber motorcycle design, we’ve equipped the Napoleonbob 250 with technologies that enhance real-world usability. The multilink suspension fork and dual hydraulic shock absorption provide 75mm/38mm of travel, smoothing out urban imperfections while maintaining the stiff feel crucial to bobber handling. Braking performance comes from 320mm twin front discs and a 260mm rear disc, backed by ABS and TCS to inspire confidence in varied conditions. The riding position strikes a careful balance between classic bobber posture and modern ergonomics, with mid-mounted controls reducing strain during extended rides. These thoughtful touches demonstrate how a vintage cruiser can deliver both style and substance, proving that traditional design needn’t sacrifice contemporary safety or comfort.
