In the multiple motorcycle shows and expos held across the world leading up to the 2023 model year, Chinese motorcycle brand QJ Motor made it incredibly clear that it means business in the international market. Under the same umbrella as Benelli, a Chinese-owned Italian brand that has been showing a lot of prowess lately, QJ Motor has been debuting new models left and right, with a good number of them expected to hit the market in 2023.
A good example of this is the brands's newest neo-retro roadster called the SRV 550. Differentiating itself from its cruiser sibling, the SRV 550 ST, the roadster gets an overall sportier, cafe-racer aesthetic, mated with bulbous bodywork, dual-disc brakes, and an inverted front fork. Unlike the bigger bikes in QJ Motor's lineup, the SRV 550 departs in terms of styling with a two-tone finish on the fuel tank. Additional retro design cues include a round LED headlight, top-stitched saddle, and a small flyscreen.
