People want "cool" motorcycles. Meaning, they need to stop building single cylinder bikes like the DR650, and start putting a parallel twin on every motorcycle, even the small 250cc trail bikes. This is 2024, and they have been building the exact same single cylinder trail bikes since 1984, that's 40 years with no real change. A parallel twin is smoother, but more importantly it sounds amazing and is incredibly exciting to drive. The fun factor of a small parallel twin is priceless.

The Suzuki GSX8S (which I was looking to buy) had low insurance for the first year, then doubled afterwards; apparently the GSX8S was being crashed in huge numbers. And Suzuki's GSXS1000, which is similar to a GSXR1000, has some of the lowest insurance rates in the motorcycle industry.

@richardjreidiiАй бұрын
You hit the nail on the head. Let’s be realistic. The A2 restriction much as I loathe the idea of restrictions in general is well thought out. 48 hp is more than enough to get a bike up to speed and break every speed limit in the country. The Honda 500 CC parallel twin engine is widely panned as one of the least exciting engines available in the small displacement market. As the owner of a CB 500 X I can attest that that statement is 100% accurate. Regardless, even with my 300 pound when fully geared ass on it, the bike easily hits 90 miles an hour according to the GPS. As riders we don’t actually need 100+ horsepower bikes. I own three of them, but I don’t kid myself that those bikes need 100 hp. Although it certainly does help the Goldwing get out of its own way at 900 pounds. For the majority of riders, just looking to get out on two wheels and have a good time with a bike that looks nice and has a reasonable degree of modern technology, the current offerings from the big four are actually pretty awful. Seriously why do I need to pay $15,000 to get into a bike with cruise control? The CLX 700 has cruise standard and you can buy last year‘s model all day long for 4500 bucks (5500 bucks out the door with all the dealer fees) I’m an old man so I could give a shit about phone integration, but I understand that people under the age of 50 do care about that kind of thing and all of CF Moto lineup offers it . Were I in the market for a new bike I have a really hard time, not walking into the nearest CF Moto dealership and giving them my money.
@langhamp8912Ай бұрын
I would hope the major consideration of anyone buying a performance standard/supersport would be doing trackdays on it, and for that racetracks seem to suck the HP right out of most bikes. This is my list of bikes from the big four that I think are reasonable powerful, do OK on the track, have modern tech, and are reasonably priced. Yamaha MT09/XSR900 Kawasaki Z900 Suzuki GSX8S Suzuki GSXS1000 Honda CB650 All those bikes have ABS/TC, make decent power and can handle trackday duty. Also, all these bikes are fairly cheap to insure.

One of the pluses with CFMoto is I have heard their offices (in the US) actively seek out feedback so that they can make the changes that the consumer wants. That's part of the reason you've seen the rapid changes in offerings from them. They already know how to manufacture given their ATV experience and partnership with KTM. Now they are making the connection with consumers in order to grow. And yes price matters also. It doesn't really matter Where something is made when Honda is making their small bikes in Thailand, Brazil and India, and apparently have longevity issues with the small bikes. It's a global market now, so just get the best bang for your buck, whether it's Royal Enfield, CFMoto, or one of the more est brands... but be aware that many "established" brands are farming out bikes to other companies anyway (like BMW using TVS, and KTM partner with CFMoto).

It's important to factor in that whilst CF Moto are doing a great job of showing up the big brands when it comes to value, remember that KTM, CF MOTO, Husqvarna, MV Augusta and Gas Gas are all part of the same parent company - PIERER MOBILITY AG. This is a good move for a number of reasons; - They can share platforms, engines and components out a larger variety of parts bins - They can cross design languages - As they are owned by a single parent company, they can manage their diversification of the product easier and it not affect profits. - As they are a consolidated group of manufacturers they have a bigger economy of scale, which ultimately means they can pass savings (if they chose to), on to the customer. Its a clever strategy, whilst people see a single brand and may tie themselves to that brand for a time, they are actually supporting the other brands in the group as well. I will definitely be looking at the bigger output bikes CF Moto bring out in the future, in particular the new "Daytona" killer, - 675SR-R... what Triumph should've made.

It's outrageous that all main manufacturers only seem to target horsepower when making new bikes, they increase capacity to keep getting gains in spite of the increased restrictions (like bikes that in most European countries can be used only half a year at best will produce a lot of pollution) and consequently increase price to keep getting a profit.
@exothermal.sprocketАй бұрын
Manufacturers DO NOT HAVE TO tune small fours to make power at 15,000 rpm. They could tune a small four to turn out STOUT torque at lower RPM. It's all in way the manufacturer sets it up. It's all in the tuning. Again. It's all in the tuning. I for one think that a small four cylinder that has a redline of say... 9 or 10k but churns out rich torque right off the line, would be sweet. Smooth, strong, and more fuel efficient. Longer stroke for starters, small throttlebodies and valves, high intake velocity, it would fill cylinders quickly at low revs and turn out the torque that wouldn't have someone waiting for something to happen. You could work on the sound of the engine. Old air-cooled fours from Japanese bikes back in the 70's and 80's which weren't big engines, sounded pretty cool.

While at first I was not completely happy with it, I did some minor adjustments and got the rear shock preload adjusted to my weight (220 lbs/100Kg), adjusted the clutch free play and lever position and removed the giant crash bars the previous owner put on for some more reasonable (smaller) drop bars. Now I’m very satisfied with the motorcycle. I got 60 hp, dual disk front brakes 270 crank, KYB (semi- adjustable) suspension for a lot less than a Ninja 400 and the same price was an nk450 in this market. While some minor adjustment (not repair) was needed, if you can buy a bike from a reputable dealer in your area that can access parts and take care of any small issues/adjustment, than I think a brand like CFmoto represents really good value. If there are no dealers or a way to get parts (if you’re handy at wrenching) then I would still go with a more established brand. At the very least, the traditional players have to watch their game to make sure they stay competitive.

We are in a strange alternate timeline where "primer" is a factory finish. Remember your whole life, when primer was not actually a factory car color? One day, dozens of vehicles were suddenly primer grey, and primer tan. Just awful.

CF Moto been on my radar since they brought the 300ss to the states. Im still heavily considering buying a 450ss as my first sport bike. It looks cool as heck, has great specs and tech and a pretty reasonable price. Oh and if i get one ill definitely be switching to the GP shifting mode.

CF Moto is putting all the other manufacturers on notice. I suspect the 450 MT is going to dominate, and the Voom is going to reignite the 4 cylinder small displacement class.

You've got a ground loop somewhere; I can hear it. HumX eliminators and in-line ground loop isolators will do the trick. The latter is significantly more reasonable a solution.

I love the look of the 500 but I’m holding out for the 675 release

I do appreciate this conversational style video. I do agree that CF Moto bike looks interesting, and yes, we all don't want to spend ridiculous amounts of money on a bike. T-700 is a nice sweet spot for me

I've been skeptical of CFMoto but the 500 SR Voom is too nice to ignore. I want that bike so bad.

If Honda brought out a new CB400 4cyl or similar I'd get one for commuting. Such a great bike.

Waiting for the 450mt, big 4 are really missing out on the smaller displacement ADV segment. CFmoto are really hitting hard.

Over 2k miles on a 450ss by my son. He still loves it and it out performed the ninja400 for less money.

If they made a 100 Hp version of it it'd be at the top of my list. Such a cool looking bike.

The 500SR that is shown on video is NOT a production model. It is custom work by Voom Concept. Also, if this is imported to the US and Europe, it will be restricted in terms of horsepower - just like Japanese bikes. Instead of Kawasaki 400, this bike should be compared to Honda CBR500 series. Due to emission and safety requirement, it will be nerfed in the US and Euro market. If such restriction wasn’t available, we will be all be happier with Japanese bikes.

The old saying of "Fast, Cheap, Quality - Pick 2" , CFMOTO is saying hold my beer.
@allancooper3865Ай бұрын
Awesome comparison 👍 I knew a lil wee bit about the cf moto’s and the advertising push , but there is quite an exceptional value in these various 2 wheeled machines , but it’s good to see that they are not completely junky ❤❤❤
