After the splash they made at the Auto Expo 2023, Benda’s cruisers may just repeat the feat on our streets!
Benda Motorcycles gained massive attention at the Auto Expo 2023, with its three massive cruiser entries: the LFC700, LFS700 Tang Knife, and Dark Flag. However, most of us thought – and rightly so – that the bikes were just display pieces with no chance of ever hitting our shores. But Adishwar Auto Ride is slated to change that; read on for more.
Benda’s bikes were the highlight of Adishwar Auto Ride’s stall at the Auto Expo 2023, as all three had a USP: whether it be the LFC700’s performance, the LFS700 Tang Knife’s futuristic design, or the Dark Flag 500’s trick suspension. Moreover, we’ve done walkarounds of each bike, which you can see on our YouTube channel.

Getting back to the matter at hand, we have come to know that all three bikes are slated to hit Indian showrooms by the second half of 2023. But an even bigger bit of news is that the brand is aiming for a sub-Rs 8 lakh price tag on all three bikes.
So let’s take stock of the situation, shall we? Three well-built, relatively high-performance bikes – two of them an inline-four, the other a V-four – coming in for just a bit more money than a Kawasaki Vulcan S. Additionally, the LFS700 Tang Knife’s closest rival, the Honda CB650R already retails at Rs 9.15 lakh (ex-showroom Maharashtra), which costs well over a lakh more than the LFS’ estimated price.
Already makes the Benda bikes seem like an attractive proposition, doesn’t it?
