I wanna see reviews of the new CB650R with e-clutch, the GSX-8R, the Daytona 660 (would have preferred the street triple's engine but whatever, fight me) and the rumored CFMoto sport bike based on their 800 platform. Basically, middle-weight sport bikes that don't make my 38 year old knees and back want to cry.

I hate the Surron and any other Emoto in that category. It isn't that they're bad products...it's a huge portion of people who ride them in urban environments. They speed through the bike lanes, disregard traffic rules, and then can claim they are on something comparable to an Ebike which let's them circumvent rules governing the rest of who who have to be plated, carry insurance, etc.

@spitescorner 6 ай бұрын

Yeah that's a huge problem with them operating in a legal grey area. I absolutely love Emotos off road though. They're so much fun.

@Ramonatho 6 ай бұрын

To be fair with this argument you should hate car drivers. At least where I live. They all do 15 over the speed limit while on their phones. That seems like a perfect reason to hate cars more than E-motos and their riders.

@ThaSideWeed 6 ай бұрын

The Surron imo tends more towards ebike than emoto when it comes to the actual parts it comes with. Capability-wise sure. Legally they fall under the moped category here and need to be plated/insured /have lighting and mirrors, to be allowed to function on roads.

Only 1 Japanese manufacturer & a bunch of electric & V configuration motors? Somebody has a torque fetish & I wholeheartedly approve. And I can't fault the choice of the 800NK either. We're lucky enough to get both the Sport & Advanced, with it's ridiculous tablet size dash, while undercutting the new Honda Hornet & Suzuki GSX-8S by a significant chunk of change. And with used 2018-2019 Duke 790's being only $2-3k less than the 800NK sport here in Australia you'd be crazy, or seriously in love with orange, not to buy new.

Out of the bunch, the two that interest me are the V100 and the 800NK. I have a CFMoto 700 CL/X which I really like, 4200 miles on it last year, no problems. My only issue is that it's apparently impossible to get a service manual for it. I bought it thinking I'd be able to at least find a PDF on the web somewhere but so far nothing. I would totally buy a CFMoto again for the machine itself, but I wouldn't buy one unless I could get a service manual. If I can't get one before it hits valve intervals I suppose I'll just be calling the dealer and asking for valve and torque specs.
