Simon Toad Hancocks Tests the Bargain 900 Supernaked on the UK Launch

Visordown were invited to attend the UK Launch of the QJMOTOR SRK900 Super Naked

So their editor extraordinaire, Simon 'Toad' Hancocks was duly dispatched to the North west of England for the launch.

What does the former runner up in Coventry's most eligible Batchelor Contest 2009 think of this exceptionally well priced 900 Super naked sports bike?

""For a 900cc twin, the SRK 900 feels surprisingly lively. It doesn’t have that lazy big-bore character you might expect, instead offering a free-revving, eager nature that makes it genuinely fun to wind on...the engine feels happy to rev out to the limiter.

The soundtrack is nicely judged, too, being throaty enough to enjoy on a back road, but not so intrusive that you’ll tire of it on a motorway slog. Sixth-gear overtakes are handled with ease, no need to shuffle down the box, which says a lot about the midrange punch."
