Qj Motor Sc300

The Qj Motor Sc300 has a top speed of ~155 km/h (estimated), produces ~35 hp and weighs ~175 kg. Motoryk rates it 6.5/10.

The QJ Motor SRK300 (also referenced as SC300 in some markets) is a middleweight naked streetfighter produced by QJ Motor, the motorcycle brand under Qianjiang Group (which also owns Benelli). Introduced around 2021-2022, it is built on a platform shared with the Benelli 302S and features a parallel-twin engine, representing QJ Motor's push into the competitive 300cc sport-naked segment. It is notable for offering European-influenced styling and Benelli-derived engineering at a competitive price point, primarily targeting Asian and emerging markets.

What Buyers Should Know

🔧

Chinese Build Quality Watch

As a QJ Motor (Qianjiang) product — the parent company of Benelli — early units have reported inconsistent build quality, particularly around electrical connections and fastener torque. A pre-purchase inspection by a mechanic familiar with Chinese bikes is strongly recommended.

💰

Depreciation Drops Fast

QJ Motor bikes tend to lose resale value quickly compared to Japanese brands, which works in a buyer's favor but hurts at resale time. Budget for a lower return if you plan to sell within 2-3 years.

Benelli-Linked Components

The SC300 shares engineering DNA and some components with Benelli, giving it slightly better parts availability than fully independent Chinese brands. However, specialized service centers can still be hard to find depending on your region.

"A capable budget naked if you're mechanically confident and patient."

$2,500-$4,000 used

The QJ Motor SC300 is a genuinely decent naked middleweight that gets unfairly dismissed because of the badge on the tank. Running gear is largely Benelli-derived — QJ owns the brand — so you're not dealing with complete mystery metal. The 292cc parallel twin pulls smoothly, has enough grunt for city riding and short highway stints, and the electronics package embarrasses bikes twice the price. Build quality is acceptable, though check switchgear and mirrors on anything over 10,000 miles because they feel like they're on borrowed time. Used, these sit in a strange market position. Dealers barely support them, so find a previous owner who kept receipts. Oil changes, air filter, and coolant are your priority checks. The suspension is soft from factory — previous owners may have already fitted heavier spring rates, which is actually a plus if they did. Parts availability is improving but still patchy outside major cities, so factor that into your risk assessment.
