QJ Motor Has An Answer For The Honda CBR650R

An image of the upcoming QJ Motor SRK800RR has surfaced online. This would be the third large-displacement supersport from the brand after the SRK600RR and the litre-class bike that’ll use an MV Agusta engine.

Yes, QJ Motor’s upcoming bike will be using its Italian partner’s engine for its flagship product. But unfortunately, the SRK800RR isn’t using the inline-triple from the Brutale or the Super Veloce. Instead, it gets a new 788cc inline-four that seems to draw inspiration from the Honda CBR650R’s unit. The bigger capacity on the SRK is achieved by a longer stroke. But there aren’t more details available yet.

On the design front, QJ Motor has gone all out with this supersport. The SRK800RR flaunts an aggressive front with winglets. Its fascia is very similar to the SRK600RR and from the sides, too, it is unmistakably a QJ product. Premium bits like the gold-finished USD fork and Brembo brakes further add to the visual appeal.

The QJ Motor SRK800RR is slated to make its global debut in the third quarter of 2023. Will it be coming to India? It is too soon to say. However, with such a big portfolio in the Indian market, and the lack of options in the middle-weight supersport segment would help the SRK800RR’s case.
