Keeway has launched its fourth offering and second V -twin cruiser motorcycle in India, the Benda V302C. It is available in three colour options - Grey, Black and Red, priced at ₹3.89 lakhs ₹3.99 lakh and ₹4.09 lakh, respectively.

The Benda V302C slots in above the brand’s smaller V-twin motorcycle, the K-Light 250V. Though both these cruiser motorcycles get a V-twin setup, the Benda gets the bigger 298 cc twin-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine with, 4 stroke, 8 valves and a Single Overhead Camshaft (SOHC) that produces a healthy 29.5 hp@8500 rpm and a peak torque of 26.5 Nm of torque@6500 rpm. Transmission duties are handled by a 6-speed gearbox with a slipper clutch. Thus, the Benda V302C is expected to offer more performance and better cruising abilities than its cheapest V-twin counterpart in India, the Keeway K-Light 250V.

The Benda V302C will offer dual-channel ABS, alloy wheels, a nice round-shaped LCD instrument cluster, slipper clutch and LED for both headlight and taillight. It also gets traction control settings, the details of which (level) are yet to be confirmed.

Also, the Keeway Benda V302C equips telescopic fork suspensions for the front that gets 120 mm of wheel travel., and at the rear it equips dual telescopic coil springs with an oil dampener and 42 mm of wheel travel. Braking duties are handled by a single 300 mm disc for the front wheels wrapped in 120/80-16 tyres, while the rear wheels wrapped in 150/80-15 tyres equip a single 240 mm disc.

It might be among the cheaper V-twin cruiser motorcycle alongside the K-Light 250V. But in this price range, the Interceptor 650 is another strong contender with a twin-cylinder set-up. The Royal Enfield not only produces more power but is also quite the VFM product.
