JAKARTA - QJ Motor, a motorcycle company from China under the Qianjiang group, recently hit the market by launching many models, especially in the middle class sports bike, naked, and adventure segments.

For the global market, Qianjiang is known as the owner of Benelli, the Italian brand now owned by the same parent company as QJ Motor. With links to auto industry giants like Geely and Volvo, it's no surprise that QJ Motor can generate multiple motorcycles.

Most recently, according to a report by Rideapart, June 25, QJ Motor is preparing a medium-class sports bike segment called SRK 800 RR in China. Although this motorcycle has not yet been produced, several sources have stated that this motorcycle is ready for production and will be launched for the first time in China.

SRK 800 RR is the development of other SR models in the QJ Motor lineup, such as the SRK 400 RR powered by a double cylinder engine, and the SRK 600 RR using an inline-four engine.

SRK 800 RR uses a new engine with a capacity of 778cc. This machine also uses a four-cylindrical engine with 102 dk power. In terms of performance, its performance is similar to that of middle class sports. In addition, the machine is said to have many similarities with the Honda CBR650R engine something that is not new in terms of Chinese producers.

However, SRK 800 RR weighs 207 kilograms. This motorcycle also has the same wheelbase as CBR650R, which is 1,450 millimeters. The driving system consists of a reverse front fork and a rear monoshock, has a double disc brake on the front and one disk on the back. It is also hoped that Bosch ABS will be available as a standard feature.

What distinguishes it from other models in the QJ Motor lineup, SRK 800 RR has the characteristics of the wings mounted on the fairing featuring a dynamic look.
