What Buyers Should Know

๐Ÿค

Benelli-shared 754cc twin

QJ Motor owns Benelli, and the SRT 800's 754cc parallel-twin (around 76 hp) is essentially the same engine platform as the Benelli TRK 800 and Leoncino 800. That means proven Bosch electronics and better parts commonality than a truly one-off Chinese motor.

โš ๏ธ

Watch finish and dealer support

The mechanicals are generally solid, but owners of QJ/Benelli twins commonly report cosmetic corrosion on fasteners and brackets, occasional sensor or dash gremlins, and a stiff, underdamped rear shock. Confirm a local dealer stocks parts before buying, as support networks are still thin in many markets.

๐Ÿ’ธ

Great value, soft resale

You get cruise control, TFT display, ride modes, traction control and dual-channel ABS at a price well under Japanese middleweight ADVs. The trade-off is depreciation โ€” expect noticeably steeper value loss than a Yamaha Tracer or Honda NC, so buying used is where the real bargain sits.
