BENDA is thrilled to present the Vinster 700 and Vinster X 700 Roadsters at EICMA 2026 in Milan. The reveal marks the brand’s entry into the Roadster segment, with a shared design philosophy expressed in two unique models.
The Vinster 700 and Vinster X 700 duo is a combination of modern and neo-retro aesthetics formed around the strong character of a V2 engine, with a substantial physical presence. Sculpted bodywork, single-sided aluminium swingarm and a long, flat seat are paired with high-mounted, integrated dual exhaust and exposed mechanical elements for a motorcycle that is immediately at home in the Roadster segment. This exciting pairing represents not just a new category for BENDA, but a whole new design language.
While they share the same double-cradle frame, swingarm, suspension and engine, the Vinster 700 and Vinster X 700 are differentiated by their distinct interpretations of how the Roadster attitude speaks to BENDA design.
The Vinster 700 brings street-oriented character, featuring classic Roadster proportions and more accessible physical dimensions. Its no-frills attitude is apparent in its minimal bodywork, 830mm seat height and chunky 17-inch wheels, with the V2 nestled in between the exhausts.
The Vinster X 700 offers a noticeably more rugged, touring-inspired direction that reflects the versatility of the base Vinster 700 platform. Its 19-inch front wheel, 865mm seat height and different proportions distinguish it from the Vinster 700, with added side bag, skid plate, handguards and high-mounted front fender. An extended windscreen and tank rack offer additional long-distance performance.
At the heart of the Vinster line-up is a 691.66cc, liquid-cooled V2, producing 54 kW (73.4 PS) at 9.000rpm, with maximum torque of 68 Nm at 6.500rpm. The V2 is the same found in both the BENDA Rock 707 and Capra 700, demonstrating its versatility across three distinct motorcycle segments.
Both also run an upside-down front fork and hydraulic rear suspension, with front and rear 2-channel ABS disc brakes. A landscape TFT display keeps key riding data visible, with USB-A and USB-C charging for long rides out.
“The Vinster started with a designer’s idea that captured everyone’s imagination. We already had the 700cc V2 engine from our cruiser range, and we began asking ourselves: why not build a roadster around it? From the outset, we wanted to create a contrast between carefully sculpted bodywork and the raw, mechanical character of the V2. The engine is the heart of the motorcycle, and rather than hiding it away, we wanted to celebrate it. That contrast defines the Vinster and gives it a clear identity in the mid-size Roadster segment.” said Petr Badura, Transportation Designer, BENDA Motor Europe.
