Benelli’s parent company, QJ Motor shows off the upcoming SRB 750. Is this the upcoming Benelli TRK 800?

Lately, we have been seeing quite a lot of new bikes from Benelli’s parent company, QJ Motor. A few months back we came across the naked SRK 600 and 600RR models from QJ Motor. As QJ Motor is the parent company of the Italian brand Benelli, few sources reported these QJ models would more likely be rebadged as upcoming Benelli models. Aside from these reports and leaks, common sense tells us the same thing.

How sure are we? Well, a few weeks back we came across a set of leaked pictures of the upcoming QJ 350 from China’s National Intellectual Property Administration. We saw Benelli’s badge embossed on the QJ350 which suggested QJ Motor would most likely rebadge the QJ350 as the upcoming Benelli 350S/TNT 300 to save on development costs.

Did you know, the QJ 350 would also be rebadged as a Harley? Read more about it here:

Now, Let’s get to the TRK business. QJ Motor recently gave a preview of their upcoming SRB750 undergoing testing on TikTok and just like the other QJ models, reports suggest the QJ Motor SRB750 would most likely be rebadged as the upcoming Benelli TRK800….or perhaps, Benelli TRK750?

Benelli TRK 800 Specification [ Speculated]

Although the specification of this bike is limited, for now, we managed to pick up a few details from the recent leaks and reports. To begin with, the bike would most likely roll in with the new 754cc parallel-twin mill from the Benelli 752s and the new Benelli Leoncino 800. This engine pushes around 81 hp and 68 Nm of peak torque.

Aside from this, the TRK 800 would pack an array of electronics such as; TFT instrument panel, backlit switches and keyless ignition. Moreover, we can expect to see alloy or spoke wheels which might be variant-specific. As seen on the majority of adventure bikes, the TRK 800 would feature; long-travel suspension units and a few creature comforts like cruise control, traction control and a few riding modes. Well, for more detailed specification of the bike, we just need to wait for Benelli to add in this bigger Adventure bike to their lineup.
