The Dark Flag 500 Commander represents a bold step forward for Benda in the world of V4 bikes, showcasing what happens when heritage meets forward-thinking engineering. This machine stands as a testament to our commitment to delivering exceptional V4 engine motorcycle experiences, blending distinctive styling with purposeful innovation.
A Name with Purpose
Rooted in the legacy of ancient Chinese battle flags, the Dark Flag identity carries a sense of strength and tradition. The Commander designation elevates this further, signaling a motorcycle designed for those who lead rather than follow. It’s a fitting title for a bike that continues to set benchmarks in the V4 bikes segment.
Unveiling Technical Mastery
The Dark Flag 500 Commander’s engineering prowess extends beyond its V4 heart, with key specifications underscoring its refined balance of power and efficiency. Its compact dimensions—2330×800×1267mm—enable agile maneuverability, while the 1856mm wheelbase ensures stability at speed. The adjustable seat height (670-700mm) caters to diverse riders, paired with a ground clearance of 150mm for versatile terrain handling. Weighing 260kg (curb), the bike optimizes power-to-weight ratio, aided by a 16L fuel tank for extended journeys.
Precision Engineering for Real-World Riding
Powering the Commander is a sophisticated 496.4cc V4 configuration, engineered to deliver 42N.m of torque where riders need it most. The Ultra variant takes this further with an intelligent cylinder management system that optimizes efficiency during idle conditions, reducing heat and conserving energy without compromising readiness.
Designed to Impress and Perform
From its commanding stance to the carefully considered ergonomics, every aspect of the Commander has been developed with rider experience in mind. The available configurations, including distinct exhaust options and suspension technologies, allow for personalization while maintaining the core character that defines this V4 engine motorcycle.
Customization and Practicality
Riders can tailor the Commander’s character through varied exhaust systems and suspension setups, preserving its V4 identity. Distinctive 130/90 R16 front and 150/80 R16 rear tires grip the road firmly, enhancing cornering precision. From urban commuting to spirited rides, this machine merges heritage-inspired design with modern versatility, proving that innovation and tradition can coexist seamlessly in the V4 segment.
The Future of V4 Riding
The Dark Flag 500 Commander isn’t just another addition to the V4 bikes market—it’s a statement of intent. By focusing on both technological advancement and riding enjoyment, we’ve created a motorcycle that appeals to those who appreciate substance as much as style. It’s time to experience the difference for yourself.
