2026 Hanway B40 Heritage
Classically styled entry-level motorcycle with retro charm and straightforward engineering
Price: €4,299
The Hanway B40 Heritage is aimed at riders who appreciate the classic appearance of traditional British roadsters but are looking for a motorcycle that is easy to ride and easy to afford. Its air-cooled single-cylinder produces 27 hp and impresses with smooth, precise power delivery that feels especially relaxed in city traffic and on winding backroads. The focus is less on outright sporting performance and more on uncomplicated riding enjoyment and low running costs.
The suspension is tuned for comfort and, together with the upright riding position, inspires plenty of confidence. Its strengths are the classic styling with wire-spoke wheels, the straightforward mechanical design, and the attractive value for money.
Weaknesses become apparent at higher speeds and during longer highway journeys. Main competitors include the Royal Enfield Hunter 350, Honda GB350S, and Brixton Cromwell 400, which in some cases offer more performance or a stronger dealer network.
