QJ Motor SRK 800 RR: A future of aluminum, the motorcycle evolves in 2025
Fans of sport bikes will have a lot to talk about in 2025, with the arrival of the update to the QJ Motor SRK 800 RR. After a promising start in France, this motorcycle, certified for A2 licenses, is refreshed with an aluminum chassis. While it may not seem revolutionary at first glance, this change marks a turning point for this sport bike that could find its place on the circuits while remaining accessible.
An aluminum chassis to lighten the bike
Where the 2024 version of the QJ Motor SRK 800 RR had a perimeter steel chassis, the 2025 version takes a step towards lightness and rigidity with an aluminum chassis. You might think this doesn’t change much, but aluminum is more resistant to torsion while being lighter. This should provide better rigidity for the bike, which is not negligible for a sport bike like this.
Of course, it is worth noting that the weight has increased slightly. The 2024 version weighed 207 kg with all fluids, but the 2025 version rises to 214 kg. Don’t worry, this is still within the average, but we are eager to see if it affects the handling on the road or track.
QJ Motor: The Chinese giant imposing itself in Europe
QJ Motor, a Chinese manufacturer capable of producing more than a million bikes a year, is entering the European market with a steady stride. Don’t underestimate the magnitude of the brand, even though it does not yet compete with Japanese giants like Honda or Kawasaki. In 2024, the QJ Motor SRK 800 RR has already won over many motorcyclists with 96 registrations in France. This model represents an excellent start, especially now that the mid-size sport bike category, between 400 and 600 cm3, is making a comeback.
Sport bikes such as the Honda CBR600RR and the Kawasaki ZX-6R have also experienced renewed interest, so it is not surprising to see bikes like the SRK 800 RR gaining ground in the market.
Performance and equipment: A true racing machine
Looking at the specifications sheet of the QJ Motor SRK 800 RR 2025, one could say that this bike is far from a beginner’s option. The 4-cylinder inline engine with 778 cm3 develops 95 horsepower at 10,000 rpm. Not bad for a bike accessible for A2 licenses! The 75 Nm of torque at 8,500 rpm provides a good dose of reactivity and agility.
All of this is combined with adjustable Marzocchi suspensions and Brembo brakes with quality ABS, which is essential for any respectable sport bike. It also features a 5-inch TFT instrument panel, with connected navigation, quickshifter up and down, and even USB ports to charge your phone while you ride.
A bike for those who want to enjoy
With the QJ Motor SRK 800 RR 2025, you have a machine that combines pleasure and performance while still being affordable. The advertised price is €8,999, placing it among the most competitive sport bikes in terms of price. If you want a bike that performs well with good handling and a fairly modern design, this SRK 800 RR could be a wise choice. The Euro5+ certification ensures that the engine meets emissions standards without sacrificing its power. This is a good point for those who do not want to give up performance for the sake of ecology.
