2023 QJ Motor SRV300 | Honest First Ride Impressions

[@edwardroxas827]

It was supposed to be the Harley Davidson Street 300. For some reasons, QJ refused exclusivity. Their collaboration with Harley made SRV300 possible to produce. Very nice bike. Here in PH we have SRV400. Limit of RPM is at 9,500RPM and top speed is around 155kph. Consuming 28-33kpl. Reliable and good motorcycle.

[@MotorcycleDemoRiders]

Now that is some good information! Thanks for sharing that. I would love to get the chance to try some other offerings from QJ in the future as I found it to be a good bike overall. I wish i had the channel the last time I was in PH since we seem to not get some of their bikes in America. Next time my wife and I go back(She is Filipina) I will need to find a dealership to connect with in PH to show some of the international versions of bikes. Thanks for the info and for watching. Stay safe

@@MotorcycleDemoRiders You can let me know. I can tour you in the PH Motorcycle Capital City. :)

Great review. Most channels give reviews for bikes where the rider is 5’ 10; >200 lbs. Then I hear the phrase ‘and I’m an old fat guy’. 😂 Subbed! 👍

[@MotorcycleDemoRiders]

Thank you so much! Got to be honest always. I'd be a terrible salesman, I think!

[@Sr.D]

It's really impressive, hard to understand why HD keeps failing on making entry level bikes, when others make perfect examples.

[@MotorcycleDemoRiders]

I hope HD will bring something in this price point to market someday. This was a good little bike. Biggest problem would be if an HD badge was on it the price would be 8k. Thanks for taking the time to watch and share your thoughts. Stay safe

[@Tireguy90]

What "entry level" Harley product was a fail?

[@MarcoLudolini]

Ne ho comprata una a febbraio per un pensionato come me devo dire che è perfetta leggera , bilanciata e

[@jeffward9174]

Where is it made. Somebody on a slim budget it seems good. Are they available in the uk

[@MotorcycleDemoRiders]

Thanks for the questions and for taking the time to watch and comment. This is a Chinese bike that is distributed via SSR in the states. From what I could see it looks like it's available in the UK but I can't be completely sure. Its and interesting proposition for the price. It adds a little flavor to the lower cc segment and I'm overall happy to see this segment getting some nice offerings. Maybe it will help to light a fire under the big 4 to make even better bikes in this category. If you do find one to try let me know if you get time what you thought about it. Stay Safe Always

[@jez6208]

Well, alot of Chinese bikes look good. But, they're invariably bloody awful! I bought a Mutt. I'm in the UK. Absolutely shite. Got totally ripped off. I think I'll stick with my Royal Enfield Classic 350.

[@MotorcycleDemoRiders]

@@jez6208 True enough about the horror stories I've heard in my life about Chinese bikes. For me I just love to see competition as it will ultimately be better for us the riders. Oh, absolutely keep the Classic 350 I love that bike. I hadn't ridden a Royal Enfield in years until I recently partnered with Randy's Cycle and they sent me out on each model. Simple and Enjoyable. Hopefully I will get a chance to edit them for release soon but my job has kept me so busy that I just haven't had a lot of free time. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and insights. I greatly appreciate it. Stay Safe.

[@jez6208]

@MotorcycleDemoRiders You too mate. My classic is amazing! Signals Desert Sand. A real head turner. Very reliable and a 3 year unlimited mileage warranty. You can't go wrong! 👍😄

[@johnsshed995]

I'm no speed freak but I would expect a little more than 125 cc performance from a 300 cc motorcycle .

[@MotorcycleDemoRiders]

I did expect it to have a little bit more speed but I chalked it up to the belt drive, the way its geared and me being fat lol.

[@tima9734]

It's an easy rider, I think it wasn't designed to be sporty/speedy to begin with

[@johnwax1967]

I have this bike and i'm 264 pounds ! On the highway straight road - Up to 81 mph and i've could have gone more but i dont like riding so fast on a naked bike. The bike is worth its money.

[@Geriiox]

He visto otras reseñas donde esta misma moto alcanzaba 149 kilómetros. Algo anda mal?

[@MotorcycleDemoRiders]

I have watched a few others and I was surpised that this didn't have any power while others did. Not sure if it was a software thing or if it was something wrong with the bike.

[@Geriiox]

@@MotorcycleDemoRiders asi es, es posible que algo ande mal, miralo y nos cuentas, la qj motor 300 deberia correr a esas velocidades 😄😄

[@ss_whole]

Nice looking bike but for roughly the same price I'd take the 300 Rebel.

[@MotorcycleDemoRiders]

They are close in overall specs without a doubt. Rebel 300 ABS is $5,049, 286cc Single, 25bhp, 18ft lbs of Torque, 364lbs Weight SRV300 is $4,999, 296cc V-Twin, 30bhp, 19ft lbs of Torque, 359lbs Weight The Rebel obviously has a massive dealer network and Hondas known reliability. The SRV300 sounds better since it's not a Single but that is personal preference. As I mentioned my wife liked this, but she does also like the Rebel. I wouldn't fault anyone for choosing the Rebel but it's nice to see other options and I do like the fact that it's got some additional things on it like the adjustable brake and clutch levers and the baby V-Twin to set it apart. Hopefully the new motorcycle wars are centered around bikes in this category because they are both practical and very useful. I don't know I just have a soft spot in my heart for these small bikes. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts. I greatly appreciate it and hopefully it will help other when they are looking for a bike like this in the future. Stay Safe

[@dingusfartacus9624]

get a royal enfield interceptor, and put on aftermarket slip ons

[@fortunate_soul]

May I know how much salary is 5 grand there? Average guy buyable? It'll take 2 year salary for me to get this bike. 😅

[@MotorcycleDemoRiders]

Depends on the work you do in the states but generally in the states we finance everything versus paying cash.

[@garyhooper1820]

I've watched ten or more reviews on this bike , in the others it was a 9500 rpm screamer . Something not right there

[@MotorcycleDemoRiders]

Honestly they pulled it out of the showroom and I just started riding it. I expected a bit more power than it delivered but still enjoyed myself.

[@kimblehosey7930]

Is it made in china?

[@MotorcycleDemoRiders]

Yes, QJ Motor is a chinese brand.

[@Tireguy90]

A cool bike, but $5000? Nah.

[@MarcoLudolini]

Non c'è nessuno che parla italiano

[@MotorcycleDemoRiders]

I''m sorry I wish I spoke italian.
