QJ Motor's presence at EICMA was its first since starting operations in Europe with five country representations and Greece shortly after.
Thus, its strong presence in Milan with a wide range of models gains a new interest, since several of the models we saw there are logically coming to our country.
QJ's most retro-looking bike, the SRC500, is among those candidates.
QJ Motor essentially presents here the evolution of the motorcycle previously known only through its Italian subsidiary, the Benelli Imperiale 400.
Featuring an evolved version of the same air-cooled two-valve single-cylinder, the SRC500 has been bumped from 374 cc to 480, resulting in around 20% more power.
It now produces 25.5 hp at 5,750 rpm, with 3.7 kgm of torque at 4,250 rpm, up from the 20.7 hp it produced as a 400.
We know the rest of the bike's features from the Imperiale, such as 205kg weight, 19in front and 18in rear wheels, and an 800mm seat height.
There is a noticeable change in the fuel tank, which has grown from 12 to 15.5 liters.
