00:00Welcome to the video from Auto Magazine Tuning Blog about the Bender LFC 700 Pro,
00:12a power cruiser that, with its 94-horsepower inline four-cylinder engine and impressive
00:17features such as pop-up headlights and air suspension, is a real eye-catcher for the
00:22Hangzhou-based Bender Motor Group, which previously mainly built 50cc scooters,
00:26cargo three-wheelers and two-cylinder motorcycles with a maximum of 400cc,
00:31is now also aiming for attention in Europe.
00:37The company already left its first footprints in Spain with 300cc models before shaking up
00:43the European market with the power cruiser LC. As early as July 2020, patent images appeared in
00:51China showing an elongated bike in the style of a Ducati Diavel.
00:54The frame made of cast aluminum elements housed a four-cylinder engine,
00:59the design of which is very reminiscent of the engine of the Honda CBR650. However,
01:05with adapted side covers and modifications to the cylinder head, the LF-01 prototype eventually
01:11evolved into the LC, which Bandera officially unveiled in July 2021. The 6,676cc engine is
01:20available in two power levels. The basic configuration offers 79 horsepower at 10,000
01:26revolutions per minute and 60 newton meters of torque at 8,000 revolutions per minute.
01:31The high-power version reaches up to 98 horsepower at 11,000 revolutions per minute and 63 newton meters
01:38of torque at 8,500 revolutions per minute, while the LF-C 700 Pro is said to have 94 horsepower.
01:48The rider generally sits on a low seat height of 695 millimeters behind a 17-liter fuel tank and
01:54maneuvers the 87 kilograms machine, whose wheelbase measures an impressive 1.7 meters with two hands.
02:01The rear wheel format is particularly impressive. In the standard version, the bike rolls on a 310
02:10millimeters wide 18-inch tire, while the Pro version uses a slightly narrower, yet still massive 300
02:16millimeters tire. At the front, a 130 millimeters wide tire rotates on a 19-inch rim. The basic version
02:26is limited to a top speed of 160 kilometers per hour, while the power version is said to reach up to 180
02:32or even 195 kilometers per hour. Shifting is done via a six-speed transmission with a conventional chain
02:40drive. At the Beijing Motorcycle Show in May 2024, Bandon presented the new LF-C 700 Pro, which boasts a
02:49number of technical refinements. The most striking feature is the electric pop-up headlights.
02:57Two black painted flaps in the front fairing open to reveal additional lights that provide better
03:02visibility in the dark. Since the narrow main headlight slot probably doesn't provide all that much light,
03:09this innovation is a sensible plus. The air suspension is also special. An air suspension strut at the rear,
03:17a pressure accumulator at the front of the engine and an electronic control system allow the chassis to
03:22be lowered when stationary or at low speeds. Another eye-catcher is the intake air opening below the
03:29main headlight. This is where the four-cylinder engine draws in fresh air and thus generates
03:34increased pressure in the intake system, similar to a ram air principle. In addition, the under-engine
03:41exhaust impresses with four rectangular outlets on the right-hand side of the vehicle.
03:45The rear wheel is attached to an aluminum swingarm with a central spring strut,
03:51while a USD fork and a double-disc brake system ensure reliable deceleration at the front.
03:57The brakes in the basic version are from Nissan. The more powerful models in the pro version are
04:03equipped with Brembo brakes. ABS is standard equipment in all versions. The cockpit is dominated
04:10by a modern TFT display, which is located on the particularly wide handlebars.
04:16Anyone interested in the LFC 700 in Germany can purchase them from selected dealers or directly
04:22from the manufacturer. The model is also available in Austria and Spain.
04:28In August, Bender announced that it would be setting up a direct sales network in Germany and
04:33that it would be offering all Bender motorcycles in Germany in the future. A 94-hp version with air
04:40suspension is set to be available from June 2024 and will be launched on the market at a price of
04:45around €10,990. It is currently unclear whether the regular LC 700 will continue to have the 310mm wide
04:55rear tire. However, Chinese media favor the 300mm tire, as it noticeably improves handling and increases
05:03the availability of suitable tires on the market. No question about it. The PowerCruiser LC 700 Pro is a
05:13real statement on two wheels that is sure to cause a stir and, at the same time, breaks new technical
05:18ground with its features, the extremely wide rear tire, the futuristic pop-up headlights and the air
05:23suspension. Was the information about the Bender LFC 700 Pro informative? Then please subscribe.
