Anyone interested in this upcoming model? I wonder if MForce have any plans to bring this in. As it is, they have started with the ADV bikes already plus the naked version of this bike. They have also brought in and started selling Moto Morini...but there is little news about this, the Benelli 600 sport bike or QJ SRG600 (whichever name suits your fancy).
Im interested in the Inline 4 SRK 600 and also the upcoming CFmoto 450SR...
Funny you should mention the 450SR. I have the same exact thoughts! Depending on the price, I might consider taking one of these as I already have a naked bike...

What's your thoughts on China made bikes? And those with collaborations with Euro brands?
Would this be better if branded QJ or Benelli in Malaysia?
Do you expect a lower price than the Japanese bikes in the same range? If yes, by how much?
TNT600 with fairing.
Had a TNT600 as a daily driver for a few years. Had no issues. Could see that they've come a long way to catch up in most areas.... except weight. For a 600cc naked, it was a rather porky little bastard and this is where you kind of feel that they haven't quite reached the same level as the Japs who would outcompete each other shaving milimeters and grams here and there all over the bike.
This struggle with weight control can be seen in QJ's ADV attempts starting with the TRK502, asking 46 horses to haul some 235kg of bike.
The new ADV is not based on the 600cc engine, but the 270-deg crank 2-cylinder lump of the 752S. I hear it's heavier still, but at least there's more power to haul ass. So if you're OK with handling R1200GS-class weight, then go for it.

Between the Honda CBR650R and the SRG600
Engine capacity CBR650R = 549cc SRG600 = 600cc ?
Weight CBR650R = 206kg SRG600 = 213kg
Power CBR650R = 95bhp SRG600 = 86bhp
Torque CBR650R = 63Nm SRG600 = 56Nm
Seat height CBR650R = 810mm SRG600 = 800mm
Then there are the other important questions of price, service centres, spare part prices etc... and to a certain extent (though not for me) fuel economy.

I saw 1st gen TNT600 pass by in red and gold rim with free flow exhaust.. still a good-looking bike for your Taman area or commuting.. but just don't bring it to Karak these days.. Polis, JPJ, JAS with Anthony will be looking for you guys...

I really like TNT600 design that put dual exhaust above the rear tire.. looks like SRK600 ditched that design. Too bad

That 450SR sure looks interesting. 49hp and 168kg curb weight. Looks good though.
Only problem is price @29k. Puts it up there with the older 650GT with only a few K price difference but u get a more torquey engine and better touring potential with standard shad panniers and a more relaxed riding position.

Dont think you are alone.. they certainly need to build up their reputation
It's not that.
The problem lies with the absurd amount of new models churned out every year, and M Force holding to so many brands.
Can they or do they have the resources to keep parts and service them?
I figure it needs a few more years to see how MForce and it's dealers performs. Looks like you would probably be on your own to source parts. Even proton has trouble with spares... What more M Force.
Tempting bikes. Just not that much confidence with MForce.
