MV Agusta-Powered QJMotor SRK1000RR Heads To Production

In what could be a defining moment for the global motorcycle industry, China’s QJMotor has joined forces with Italian heavyweight MV Agusta to create a superbike that might just shift the balance of power—meet the SRK1000RR.

Though the bike is still under wraps, insider information has confirmed its existence, setting the stage for its grand debut towards the end of 2023 and production starting in early 2024.

A Sisterhood with Benelli

QJMotor, which is closely connected to another popular bike manufacturer, Benelli, has already received formal approval for the SRK1000RR in China. Both companies fall under the umbrella of Qianjiang Group. Official documents that provide specs and even a completed image of the bike have been shared at QJMotor dealer meetings.

A Partnership Born from Previous Collaborations

The roots of this collaboration go back to September 2020 when Qianjiang hinted at plans for a new four-cylinder superbike under the Benelli brand. It was evident that the engine was provided by MV Agusta, who also struck a distribution deal with Qianjiang for the Chinese market at the same time.

The partnership became even more apparent last year when MV Agusta showcased a prototype for an adventure bike featuring a Qianjiang engine and chassis. This new superbike can be seen as a sort of cousin to that bike, but with a design led by QJMotor.

Taking Inspiration but Keeping Secrets

At first glance, it’s clear that the SRK1000RR takes design elements from MV Agusta’s iconic Brutale 1000 RS, particularly the unique swingarm and the special frame that combines metal alloys and steel.

However, MV Agusta has held back from lending the powerful engine that drives its Brutale 1000 RS. Instead, the SRK1000RR will feature a less powerful, 921cc engine, producing 125-127 horsepower and 95Nm of torque.

What’s Next?

The 921cc engine itself seems to be part of MV’s broader strategy, as it was also teased in a retro concept bike last year. There is also speculation that QJMotor might manufacture engines for other MV Agusta bikes and be allowed to use the same engine for their own models. This kind of partnership isn’t new in the motorcycle world; another Chinese company, CFMoto, has a similar arrangement with Austrian bike maker KTM.

This exciting alliance between QJMotor and MV Agusta seems to be more than a fleeting partnership; it’s a strong indication that China’s motorcycle industry is gearing up to compete on a global scale. And if the SRK1000RR lives up to the hype, it could very well become a significant player in the two wheels arena.

QJMotor SRK600RC Rolls Out In Malaysia – RM39,888

Mforce Bike Holdings Sdn. Bhd., recognized as the official custodian of the QJMOTOR brand in Malaysia, stunned motorcycle aficionados by revealing the striking SRK600RC.

Boasting a 600cc engine, this bike is poised to redefine the mid-range motorcycle segment with its captivating design and exhilarating performance.
The SRK600RC is available in two colour options, both offering Gresini Racing Moto2 livery.

Starting at RM39,888 (exclusive of insurance and road tax) and available in elegant shades of Black and Blue, the SRK600RC stands as a testament to QJMOTOR’s commitment to craft, performance, and value.

Delving deeper into its core, the SRK600RC houses a meticulously engineered four-cylinder, 16-valve engine fortified with a DOHC system.

Complementing the robust engine is a Manual Multi-Plate Wet Clutch (ASC) paired with a 6-speed manual transmission. This combination ensures smooth gear transitions, granting riders a greater degree of control and responsiveness, essential for both city jaunts and long rides.

Weighing 225kg, the SRK600RC strikes a balance between agility and stability. It’s evident that every gram and every design line was meticulously thought out, guaranteeing optimal on-road performance. Further enhancing rider safety is the inclusion of an Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) and a quickshifter (for up-shift only).

This advanced braking mechanism ensures that the wheels don’t lock up during sudden or intense braking situations, thereby bolstering braking efficiency and reducing chances of skidding.

Beyond its mechanical prowess, the SRK600RC showcases an impeccable design ethos. It isn’t just a machine; it’s a work of art. The attention to detail, the sculpted bodywork, and the aggressive stance promise not only a delightful ride but also turning heads wherever it goes.

For those eager to experience the SRK600RC firsthand, this magnificent machine is now available across all authorized QJMOTOR dealers in Malaysia.

FIRST LOOK: QJMotor OAO Pro Electric Motorcycle

In the ever-evolving landscape of urban mobility, electric motorcycles and scooters continue to redefine the way we traverse city streets.

the OAO Pro offers a good range of 170 kilometers per charge.
powering the OAO Pro is a mid-mounted electric motor capable of producing a nominal output of 5kW and a peak output of 10kW.

One standout contender is the QJMotor all-new electric motorcycle the OAO Pro. Previously known as the QJ Motor RX, this electric sportbike has undergone a transformation since its debut at EICMA 2022.

Renamed and refined, the OAO Pro now boasts a remarkable range of 170km per charge, a significant upgrade from its initial 120 kilometers.

Underneath its sleek exterior, the OAO Pro houses a mid-mounted electric motor with a nominal output of 5k, peaking at 10kW during overtaking manoeuvres. These figures, while modest on paper, translate into an exhilarating and responsive ride experience thanks to its continuous power delivery. A 72-volt, 90-ampere-hour battery pack fuels the motor, benefiting from regenerative braking for efficient charging.

With a top speed of 60 miles per hour, the OAO Pro strikes a balance between urban commuting practicality and sporty dynamics. A manual transmission with four gears preserves the spirited feel of traditional sportbikes, catering to riders seeking an engaging ride.

Meanwhile, ABS-equipped brakes and LED lights ensure safety, while an LCD instrument cluster, complete with a convenient USB socket, keeps riders well-informed during their journey.

QJMotor Developing Electronic Clutch

China’s motorcycle industry has been steadily improving in recent years, but there’s still room for innovation compared to their European, Japanese, and American counterparts. However, a promising development is on the horizon, as Qianjiang, the parent company of QJMotor and Benelli, has filed a new patent for an electronically controlled clutch system.

This exciting breakthrough is showcased on the QJMotor SRK700, a powerful 700cc twin-cylinder engine also used in the Benelli TRK702. Unlike the usual hydraulic or cable-operated clutches we see in most motorcycles, this electronic clutch is different. It allows for precise control using electronics, giving riders more options and flexibility.

What sets this innovation apart is that it can be used in different ways. On one hand, it maintains a conventional clutch lever look, but it is operated electronically, not manually. This could lead to smoother and more precise gear changes. On the other hand, it could also be part of a semi-automatic or fully automatic transmission system, making riding even easier and more enjoyable.

Some other companies have introduced automatic clutch systems in the past, but Qianjiang’s approach seems unique. It could allow riders to switch between a manual mode, where they have full control over the clutch and gears, and an automatic mode, where the bike takes care of shifting gears on its own, making riding effortless.

This innovative electronic clutch system represents a significant step forward for the Chinese motorcycle industry. It brings fresh possibilities for improving the riding experience and attracting more riders to embrace motorcycling. As the technology continues to evolve, we can expect other manufacturers to take notice and work towards their own advancements.

Harley-Davidson Unveils New X 500 Roadster In China – 47HP, 48Nm

Harley-Davidson has made headlines once again with the launch of its new X 500 roadster, just weeks after unveiling the X 350 and “leaked” spy shots of the Hero MotoCorp-developed 4XX.

The X500 is the result of a partnership between Harley-Davidson and Chinese brand QJ Motor.
The motorcycle is based on the Benelli Leoncino 500.

The bike’s features are minimal, including a monopod semi-digital instrument console with a digital inset and dual-channel ABS as the only electronic aid.

The only notable departure from the classic Harley-Davidson aesthetic is the integration of rear indicators with the tail lights.
