Three days. Full roads. Test rides, racing, music and motorcycles everywhere. After 13 stops across the DACH region, Glemseck 101 was the perfect final destination to bring BENDA’s 2026 Roadshow to a close.
As one of Europe’s biggest motorcycle gatherings, Glemseck is less about standing around looking at bikes and more about experiencing what makes motorcycle culture so addictive. This year, BENDA brought its own mix of machines to the party, from the upcoming Rock 707, Dark Flag 950 and Redstone 1000 to the P51, Napoleonbob 250 and Redstone 550. Visitors could also get behind the bars of models including the Chinchilla 350 CVT and LFC 700 Pro in the BENDA test-ride area.
And the LFC 700 Pro did more than just offer test rides. In the legendary 1/8 Mile Sprint, Sixten Wall took victory in the BENDA brand group aboard the LFC 700 Pro, giving the weekend a proper dose of competition.
One of the most distinctive machines at the stand was a custom-built Napoleonbob 500, created with a very different kind of inspiration. Golden carp leap through blue waves across the tank, drawing from classical Chinese imagery and the enduring symbolism of the carp – persistence, ambition and transformation. Look closer, and even Napoleon himself makes a few unexpected appearances around the bike.
On September 5, the motorcycles gave way to music as BÄR, a pop artist and the band. The performance took over the stand for a two-hour live performance. With BÄR’s distinctive voice and magnetic stage presence, he brought the evening to life and gave the BENDA team and visitors another reason to stay a little longer.
For BENDA Europe, Glemseck was more than the final stop on the Roadshow. With almost the entire team there, it became a chance to step away from the usual work, meet riders face to face and celebrate a season spent taking BENDA across Europe.
The 2026 Roadshow is over. The next ride is already waiting.
UNLEASH THE RIDE.
