QJ Motor, represented in Argentina by Grupo SIMPA, has expanded its motorcycle offerings with the introduction of the SRT 450RX. This new model enters the mid-size adventure segment, designed to cater to a diverse range of riders. Whether commuting daily, embarking on long journeys, or navigating challenging low-adhesion terrains, the SRT 450RX aims to provide a versatile solution.
Powering the SRT 450RX is a 449cc DOHC twin-cylinder engine, liquid-cooled and managed by Bosch electronic injection. It produces 47.6 horsepower at 9500 rpm and 41 Nm of torque at 8000 rpm, paired with a six-speed manual gearbox and chain final drive. The bike's mixed-use configuration is evident in its wheel sizes, with a 21-inch front and an 18-inch rear, both spoked and tubeless-ready. A substantial 18-liter fuel tank enhances autonomy, particularly for off-road excursions. Weighing 196 kg and with a seat height of 835 mm, it balances capability with accessibility.
The SRT 450RX distinguishes itself with a comprehensive equipment package. It includes adjustable Marzocchi suspension, Brembo brakes with switchable ABS, traction control, and three distinct riding modes (Normal, Sport, Off-road). Rider convenience is further enhanced by a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS), a 7-inch TFT display with Bluetooth connectivity and screen mirroring, and full LED lighting, including fog lights. Heated grips and seat add comfort for colder conditions, while aluminum skid plates and side guards offer protection. Priced at $10,600,000, the motorcycle is available with a five-year warranty and financing options.
