Benda LFC 700 PRO 2025

Benda LFC 700 PRO 2025

Anyone who, based on its looks, thinks the Benda LFC 700 Pro is an affordable alternative to the Ducati Diavel V4 or Ducati XDiavel V4 will be proven wrong after just a few kilometres. The Ducati models are high-performance power cruisers with surprisingly good riding performance. The Benda, by contrast, is a classic cruiser in spectacular packaging. The Benda LFC 700 Pro doesn’t ride like a Ducati. Nor does it try to. It offers its very own take on the cruiser theme – less performance, but more presence. The riding position is spot on, the straight-line stability is impressive, the engine is pleasantly refined and the looks are unique. And that is precisely where its appeal lies. The price of €12,999 in Germany and €14,499 in Austria also positions it well below its Italian rivals.

Distinctive, rugged styling with high recognition value

Comfortable riding position and relaxed knee angle

Excellent straight-line stability on long journeys

A silky-smooth inline four-cylinder engine

Electronic air suspension as a technical highlight

300-series rear tyre with better availability than the previous 310-series

Good mirrors with minimal vibration

Significantly cheaper than the Ducati Diavel/XDiavel V4

Relatively underpowered for a "power cruiser"

Heavy at 295 kilograms

Sluggish handling on winding roads

Limited maximum lean angle

Automatic lowering of the air suspension with little practical benefit

No Ride-by-Wire

No cruise control

Throttle grip with noticeable play

Sound not very exciting

Levers still relatively far from the handlebars even in the tightest setting
