I can’t believe how much I like the styling on all CF-Moto’s stuff.

My wife has a CFMoto 650NK and I've been waiting for this model in my area. I've fallen in love with CFMoto over the last few years.

The entire review can be summed up in these 20 sec 4:31 to 4:51. The feeling it gives you and the smile it puts on your face :)

Thanks for the awesome Vid, Spite; it was fantastic to hear your overview and first impressions, and I'm looking forward to that comparison with the MT-09 SP!

Spite, loved how you just steered around the cow (pun intended) without missing a beat and with no comment, like it just happens every day here in Texas!

I went to a powersports dealership the other day, and got to look at some bikes (window shopping for the future) got to see some of CFmoto’s bikes in person. once I get a garage I may want to get one of these. My dad’s garage has nothing but Honda in it. I think CFmoto is just the kind of bike for me. They just need more peeps to try em out.

Hell yeah Im getting to ride one at our Honda! I'm very excited for the big boi bikes from cf moto to finally drop

Loving the Vmax pulling up alongside 😎 Spite

Great review, I was waiting for this.

You guys in the states don’t seem to have the advanced model according to the USA website, The advanced model adds keyless, steering dampener, quick shift, and Apple CarPlay ready 8” screen. Done nearly 1000kms in Australia and loving this bike. The app logs all the rides, sends notifications if the bike is moved or vibration is detected so essentially if it’s stolen you can find it quickly and on top of all that it has an auto wake feature when your walking towards the bike (just like some cars). The competition offers none of the apps features let alone at this price. Gizmos aside it performs and rides very well. I worked for Motorrad for years and the connected ride app ain’t nearly as polished, Shows how much the other brands are taking everyone for a ride (literally)!

Had a 2022 CFMOTO CLX-700 for around 3,000 miles. Absolutely loved it. Only got rid of it because i a big aftermarket guy and love to make things mine...cfmoto doesnt have quite the aftermarket support just yet from 3rd party manufacturers. Miss it but glad i switched to a Yamaha XSR

I bought the CFMOTO 650GT for my first bike as I'm a bit older and have some back problems. The riding position is so comfortable its a fun bike because its defiantly not "Fast" so you can ride the crap out of it and you are hardly breaking the speed limit. as for quality, it's well put together everything is tight and feels good but I have only had it for 2 months so I cant talk to the reliability piece yet but I haven't seen any red flags from other owners.

gonna be a fun bike to play with. cant wait to see more.

I rode the Papio SS and was surprised with how good it felt and all the amenities it came with standard. Specially for a mini bike. CFMOTO is doing some really cool things in the two wheel space.

I must confess that I wouldn't mind this bike. Excellent review. Nick

that looked like some pretty stellar traffic you got there in austin.

getting this as my first bike and i cant wait! im a relatively tall guy at 6'4" and i feel comfy on this bike and could see myself using it for long rides, plus its the perfect amount of sporty and comforbilaty that i was looking for

That laugh you gave was legendary 😂 every biker knows that one 😁👍

I bought a used 2023 650nk, with less than 300 miles on it for a steal of a price. I didn’t ask any questions I just bit the bullet. It’s an awesome freaking bike and I can’t believe they aren’t more popular but in a way in glad too because everyone doesn’t have one and it gets tons of looks and rides like a champ. I get GPS and it have different ride modes and ABS front and back…Perelli tires, it’s like a secret weapon nobody knows about yet.

J-Jaun was bought out by Brembo and they made some of the best braided brake lines. It's like Craftsman was bought by Dewalt and as other company's was and you could take a plant tour and see every brand they bought being built under the same roof with the Logo Dewalt on it. My CF loves 5 to 6 grand where the PowerBar comes on strong and its an NK. I have no complaints. I with mine and I have had it almost a year. I have only heard one person on these videos mention the Bosch fuel injection with dual overhead cams and the navigation system or the 45 degree engine shut off it has or slipper clutch.

I did a testride on a 800NK like this. And I agree pretty much on everything you said. Definitly in that price range... I doubt you can find a bette new bike

Have seen one yesterday going through a corner Looks modern but kinda very "not in your face" almost like a honda when it is just moving and not minding details Sounded really nice for a Euro5 stock engine.

I've been waiting for a good review from an American KZfaqr. Thanks!!! Keep it up and I can't wait for the other videos to come out. MSC out of Mississippi has tunes on the other cfmoto bikes. You should check them out.

looks like a really nice ride and good value. One I would consider if CFMoto was here in AK.

I bought a Chinese Z650, a.k.a. the CFMoto 700CL-X, and I'm loving it so far. Very solidly built moto for what I paid for it and it's a blast to ride around town. It was between it and an MT-07 and the handling on it blew the MT away, especially the suspension and braking.

I was looking at this bike last night online parallel twin 800cc 100 hp about 80 nm of torque… impressive.

I’m hoping to see a video on the 450 nk soon. I’m looking at possibly getting the 450 or a z650 as my 2nd bike

that laugh sold me on it

Cool you got to ride one of your most anticipated motorcycles, happy for you! Funny you mention people want to see a lot of tech and/or features for the lowest price as possible or the most reasonable price I guess? While I am here sitting like: ...uhm.. nah..don't need lean angle sensors, anti wheelie control, ride modes and what not. Meanwhile my bike although having heated grips and a windshield added/ It doesn't have ABS (it is optional when it was released a lot of them were sold with) no traction control or ride modes etc. Just an analog RPM gauge a display with time, coolant temp, fuel gauge, speed in km/h and of course total km's ridden and obviously the indicators, neutral indicator, low beam high beam control light and an engine check light I think which I can't confirm since that hasn't lighted up, lol. I get rider aids are useful especially traction control and ABS, I see value in that, and sure cruise control can be a nice feature as well. Same anti wheelie stuff for safety but it wouldn't be my demands for bike. Maybe later they'll become more of thing or something idk. So far just really happy with my bike and the features it has. Really learns me how to handle a bike without helping aids. Note: Not opposed to any of the technologies being added on bikes or cars even, but I do think they are overdoing it occasionally.

Spite ... WHAT gloves are those?? I LOVE 'em!

As well as the great value bike I’m loving those gloves and jacket watching from England UK 🇬🇧🤙

Maybe in time that the issues will come out specially components other than the engine. Wirings, ignition coil, cooling pump, etc

dude this video & your utterly immature laughter is everything i need to know about this bike ahaha thank you again spite! CFMOTO for the win!!

I've been watching all you cf moto videos with interest, but i also bough an early Hyosung back in the day and im scared

There is a advance version that has a vertical 8” touch screen and has a steering dampener & up/down shifter, unfortunately no traction control, yet. That is coming in the next iteration. I chose the 8S because I have very cold & slippery roads here. I wanted TC. I paid more but was okay with that. Cheers🤙

you talked a lot about how it looks like there is a spot for a steering stabilizer on the triple tree. the KTM 790 Duke has a steering stabilizer and considering how many parts are shared between the bikes, i would imagine thats why. i wouldnt be surprised if an aftermarket or OEM stabilizer made for the 790/890 would fit it perfectly.

I got a 23' MT-09 as a first bike this year and one of the first things I did was adjust the suspension myself and while yes, the stock base suspension is pretty meh, especially the rear shock.... I am continually surprised by the amount of owners who suggest a steering dampener because they get speed wobbles above 90MPH. I have taken my bike all the way to the ECU top speed limiter and never had wobbles or even an uneasy feeling in the front end. I am glad cruise control seems to becoming more and more of a base model feature now, definitely something I wish was a feature on my bike. I'm really hoping to see CFMOTO make something like an 800SS in the future. Although their 3 cylinder 675SR is also something I'm looking forward to, hopefully it sees a release in NA.

I am really excited for this bike. Might even trade my speed triple 1050 in on it next season

I’ve tried J Juan brakes on a couple Zero bikes and I wasn’t exactly impressed. Maybe part of that comes down to regen, but reeling it back from triple digits gave me a weird pulsing sensation reminiscent of early ABS, not electric motor regeneration. Maybe that’s just expectations around a $22k bike compared to $8.5k for this. Idk about having one long term, but for a year or so, yeah, this is a win

Do you not get the Advance model in the states? As in Australia the one you are riding is the entry level Sports. The Advance comes with a tablet sized display, up and down QS and a steering stabiliser as standard with cruise control. It’s about $1,000 USD more.

Only someone from Texas would dodge a cow in the middle of the street and not even make a comment. I am with you, brother. I live right down the street from you and Yam's.

I EU we have the advance option whit the big tft and bobble shock absorber , quick shifter, i love the bike

Talks about stealing and riding stabilization and then proceeded to take both hands off to explain lmao love it

The lack of traction control is the main purchase-stopper for many, with that said - it's 90% likely to be my next bike in a few months

the corners were cut on the R&D, they took the already present KTM and changed it a bit, that is a big saving

I ride an Indian KTM and it's great. China and India are bike heavy countries so both make a ton of good reliable machines. Having some extra cred by way of a more recognized brand liked KTM attached to this just seems like a win to consumers outside of China.

CF moto are coming, i am having the MTX 800 as soon as that bas7ard hits the shops

Needs a tune and that'll solve it. Sounds like it has the S1K 4-8k rpm dead spot. That gets fixed with a tune also

God he loves CF moto ❤ (looking fwd to MT 450 adv)

Have the 650Nk and have the same issue at speed of 70 to 80 little wobbles but overall great bike

Ive had the Ibex 800 T for 3 months and have over 2000 miles on it with no issues. CF Moto are doing great things! I'd recommend their bikes to anyone.

I am super interested in this bike.

Non US market has a premium version of this and I want that one

Hoping they will be available in New Zealand soon. Also waiting for the new 450MT

Interesting Spite 🤔 you're talking about a potential future R model. It already exists, so maybe you just don't get it in the US. In the Australian market, it's called Advance. It comes with a steering dampener, quickshifter, 8 inch TFT with Apple CarPlay.

Add a windscreen and some hard cases and this could be a big time do it all bike

If they come out with a fully faired version like the 450SS, but 800SS, I'll be the first on the line to buy it

Last month I picked up a 2022 CF Moto 650 Adventura for less than $4500 out the door. It is an excellent bike and very comfortable. I will keep CF moto as an option for when I replace the Adventua.

Cool bike ❤

Looks better than it's KTM 790's cousin. More than CF Moto vids please.

I want one but I am a bigger dude and a new rider so a bit cautious. But it is a beautiful bike.

Wow, cruise control on an $8600 bike is a breath of fresh air. Hopefully the other manufacturers will take a look at this and follow suit.

Looks wise 10/10

goddamn they got the styling down

one of the best looking naked bikes ❤

Big question is will Honda bring the Hornet 750 to the USA ?

That one has the smaller tft screen that looks better than the big one. The 800nk here has a tablet.

If they release an 800ss I’m going to the dealer asap.

Even on a demo bike maybe keep the second key separate 😏 Love the CFMoto bikes!

J.Juan calipers and braking system is part of brembo group, therefore the quality is very good.

The bike is priced well. It just has to get past the stigma.(im part of the problem) when it comes to bikes like these i think Japanese first. I like the color scheme not loud like the KTM. Cfmoto just needs to get some traction as new riders move up from the NK300 and 450SS they will have a built in customer base. Great value for the money.

Question What would you say the power and Torque is in the different modes Sport vs Street vs Rain Does the rain mode take the snap out the throttle and tame it down to the halfway point

Do you know if the newer version coming to the USA? Like the European versions with smart key and bigger cluster ?

Jjuan is owned by brembo now. So the quality and engineering is there.

awesome video but you forgot to do a nice walk around, showing the parts and stuff

SP version is around 500-700 more , comes with a bigger screen, tunable sus and steering damper

14:23 For a moment I was transported back to my home country, India.

What are those gloves they look sick

Would you recommend this to a vary tall and heavy rider, looking for something more fun than a Cruiser?

i like it alot. I feel like im more interested in the 450NK. should be similar I hope.

So nobody’s gonna mention the FN V Max sitting at the red light 7:57

The price on this bike is adequate actually. That's the average price of similar bikes on Chinese market, it's competitive. A side question: would you still support your words about Svartpilen 401? Is it a decent choice for a scrambler? At this price point in China I could get a decent 600 v4 (although it's a cruiser). Kind of in the middle of making this decision

Spite I have a Question do you wear a nappy (look it up ) that seat looks so thin. I have had pushbikes with better seats then that. Other wise minted.

I test rode the 450ss and the CX-L a while back. I was pleasantly surprised by both, but especially the 450ss. They both felt very well made (aside from weirdly squishy turn signal switches, and a very strange power band on the CX-L). I think that if they could just somehow convince more people to test them out, the stigma would wane quite a bit. People scream about China with this sort of thing, but don't even blink twice when buying something from Walmart or Amazon that is almost certainly made in China. I'm personally very interested in the NK800. It seems to tick all the boxes that I'm interested in and at a ludicrous price point.

Just bought this last month, been waiting for the US version to show up and snatched it up as soon as it hit the showroom floor. Just wish the US had the advanced version but for the price (9.4 out the door) it's amazing.

I'm so excited for this bike. Can you tell a difference in the modes? I have a 650NK and the only thing that changes is the screen

saw this 6 seconds after posted 😃

Hey spite great vid, but I was wondering what’s a good motorcycle helmet for someone with a lot of hair?

You are aware of the cam shaft issues associated with the KTM 790 engine yeah 🤔

I test rode this bike recently it was a beast! My only issue is it cost the same as a ktm 790

At 5’9” with longish legs. Would I be able to flat foot it?

Displacement just seems to keep creeping higher and higher

Wishing we could make these kind of bikes in america

Are any of the models will include the larger display? In Mexico the cheapest model have the smaller display, and the top of the range have the large ipadish dusplay

See this bike and the Kove 800x but of the two I trust the CFMoto more. They actually have dealers and some kind of support network in the US. But be careful because folks get really pissy when you say these are KTM engines, the Kove folks for some reason are like, "No it's entirely different" :).

The laugh is addictive heehehhehehheea

At least we can see what they're doing with all those KTM and Yamaha parts 😂

Would you recommend this as a beginner bike

Jjaun is owned by Brembo other than the name pretty much same brake.
