Chinese-built motorcycles have definitely come a long way with regard to improvements in design and technology. Benda, which is headquartered in Hangzhou City in China, has recently penetrated the European market with the introduction of their BD300 cruiser.

As the name implies, the BD300 is a 300 cc cruiser powered by a V-twin, liquid-cooled powerplant that produces a claimed 31 Ps of power and 26 Nm of torque. This V-twin motor is then paired to a six-speed gearbox with a belt as the final drive. Benda claims that the BD300 cruiser can reach speeds of up to 150 kilometers per hour. The BD300 is also Euro-5 compliant.

The cruiser is built on a tubular steel frame, and rides on 43mm inverted forks in front. Mounted on the frame is a teardrop-shaped fuel tank.

It comes with all-LED lighting, a full-LED instrument panel, and ABS as standard. This cruiser is currently being retailed in Italy with an SRP of €5,450, or roughly PhP316,000.

So far, we do not know if there’s already a Philippine importer here in the country, but if the BD300 were sold here, would you buy one?
