Once again another humorous, informative review..think it's a great looking bike. Although I'm more into adventure type bike ( it's an age thing ) So really looking forward to CF Moto 800 MT being released into the UK. I notice one of the comments say " Chinese no thanks" if recall that's what me and my mates were saying about Japanese motorcycles 50+ years ago !!!
I just made the first down payment for the 800 MT, will have it late January and have been thinking the exact same thing. Chinese bikes (good quality ones) are what the japanese motorcycle invasion of the 70s was. 🤷
I just picked one up a couple of weeks ago, it's in my opinion the nicest looking of the new retro bikes. The exhaust is wonderful in stock form and it's obvious that there was some real attention to both quality and the riding experience when the bike was designed and built. The only thing I don't like is how sensitive the ride-by-wire throttle is, especially in Sport mode, but other than that minor complaint the bike is fantastic. Many companies in China are producing world-class products these days, CFMOTO is one of them and has built a really great bike.
It's good to see someone producing an exhaust system that fits in with the asthetics of their machine, yep agree another couple of litres go go juice would have been nice and a tail tidy, great looking machine.
Hi all, I live in Australia and only yesterday the 26.10.21 I went to my local CFMOTO dealership ( some 60klms away ) to have a look at one. They only had the CL-X Sport model which was being prepared for the Australian Motorcycle Magazines to test ride and review, AMCN ( Australian Motor Cycle News ) and the like. The dealership had a Heritage model but unfortunately it was being prepared for the showroom, as it only arrived from China last Saturday After reviewing the Sport model for some time the build quality is actually quite good and the owner of the dealership started the bike up for a minute or two and went through the clock display and all the functions, I sat on the bike and the seat height and the ergonomics all seem to be well placed, except the riding position on the Sport model is just not for me I am actually waiting of the CL-X 700 Adventure model to arrive in Australia ( should be mid December this year or early January 2022, according the the dealership ) when one arrives I have already booked in for a test ride with the dealership. Currently the price in Australia is $9500 AUD, which appears to include the on-road cost also, I am 65 years old and have been riding since 1971
There really is no competition in this segment in Aus at present. Besides for the MT-07, I don't think there are any other non-LAMS on offer. If it had a 19" front wheel I don't think I could resist the temptation. Front 18" rubber choices may be a bit limited.
Just watched this again. Best review of this bike on RUclips. I am considering one for use in Portugal, and an XSR700 for Thailand. I divide my time between those countries.
I genuinely hope that you'll get the chance to ride the CL-X Sport version! We had showing of CF Moto in my country and this one, the Sport and the MT 800 were amazing, they're definitely going the bucket list for next year.
UPDATE. Got my CLX and got about 50 miles on it before the snow came LOL. I love it. It's a great bike thus far. Long term reviews seem to be good so I'm looking forward to putting some serious miles on it come spring. I thing the Harley is gonna spend more time in the garage next season 😶
I’m off to look at one this week, my local dealer has just taken delivery of one. He has MT650 and GT. This is definitely a nice bike, doesn’t matter if it’s Chinese. People used to say “Oh it’s a Japanese bike “ in the same kind of derogatory way and look how people love them now. CFMoto are really nice bikes, and warranty of four years is a no brainer
Would not be surprised if a lot of the "Japanese" bikes where made in the same place as these

@@lmunky CFMoto produces KTM Eninges, KTM "middle class" bikes and since 2021 the KTM's 790 ccm Models. Furthermore from January 2023 KTM's Mother Pierer Mobility AG will take the CFMOTO-distrubution in Great Britain, Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Spain. Can imagine theres some jointventures with some Japanese too.
Never have looked at any of your stuff before but I will again. I'm going to hang on in and see when this bike hits Aotearoa. Informative and quirky. Thank you. Hope this helps your algorithm
Here we are a year later and I'm in love with it. My CLX is my "other" Bike next to my Electra Glide. It's a phenomenal bike for it's class and price range. I will never sell it and am keeping a closer eye on CFMoto as time passes. It's just truly a great bike. You can have your this and that choices but as a whole you can't beat it. And no I don't work for anyone! at all!. I'm disabled LOL.
I want one of these - very nice bike. Personally, I prefer the rear hugger for the number plate - I think it's much tidier than the spindly thing coming out from the seat just to get past the back of the rear wheel (compare this and the 300NK with the 650NK).
Hello from Türkiye, First of all thanks for sharing this video which has great expression details. I bought same colour at the end of July and my impression is incresing day by day when i drive. Everbody has an false chinese impact for CF moto but i recommend to everyone to make a test drive after visual check. If you see this bike in real and if u have a test ride chance, you will be fall in love with this bike too. Have a safe drive… ✌️ 🏍
Hi Guys really enjoyed the road test and commentary but this is the first review from you that has popped up on RUclips for me for over a year and I'm a fully qualified mug winning channel follower of yours ?
I really enjoyed your review. I've been riding big V twins and now I'm 65 and looking at this type of bike. I truly wish they would make the exhaust come up by the knee and then out, like a scrambler should be. You have a new subscriber!
Basicly the engine is a big bore version of Kawasaki 650... so i guess durability and parts availability wouldn't be an issue. For me the design is a bit similar with Husqvarna Svartpilen, which is makes sense cause as you said, it is designed by Kiska, and Husqvarna & CF Moto is owned by KTM. European designed bike with Japanese heart built in China sold at reasonable price... mmm i want one!
Well done indeed! And I agree with you. Really nice bike. That rear wheel scraper is a no go! I do find the exhaust downpipes to be a bit dodgy to look at. They make a strange twist on their way down. Looks a bit silly, actually. Thank you!
Excellent review, thank you. Really love the look, the sound, the price of this CF moto!!! Maybe a bit heavy, but really lovely. Chinese don't mess anymore :) As a 50 years old beginner, will you considered this bike as a first one to a newbie!? Cheers from Serbia
great video, I had an eye on this beauty since a while, but the videos watched until now about it weren't to convincing, but seeing it from so many angles made me thinking about my next bike:) Yamaha XSR 700 is one of my favourites, but yes, it has it's price
Very interesting bike! Surprised it was the same power as those particular bikes- impressive! Four year warranty and good price are tempting in today’s climate. 👍
I won't buy another bike without cruise control if I plan on going more than an hour. I live in the US and often am on the expressway for hours. It's great to be able to give my wrist a rest occasionally, and a simple throttle lock makes me go fast enough to risk a ticket when I'm on a downhill, and too slow on the uphill.
even outside UK (I'm AUstralian, our numberplates wouldnt fit under reear seat. Plate would hit the tyre when suspension compressed. I dont actually mind having it where it is factory.
Great review thanks. I still remain to be convinced on the quality and longevity of chinese bikes. Whilst working at a college we stripped down a chinese (make eludes me) and a yam ybr 125. Both had significant corrosion. However in the engine/gearbox/ brakes, the chinese bike was as soft as toffee. The yam was fit as a fiddle. There was 10 yrs between the bikes. The chinese bike was donated by a student as he had enough of it. This was 6yrs ago so maybe things have changed. Just found your channel and subbed. Love it, very different and refreshing, thanks
I'm a bit late with this question: does the seat lock you into one position? I think it's a really good-looking bike, too. And I don't mind the rear hugger. Good review.
Informative review thanks. I've seen a few other reviews of the bike and there's been mention of significant vibes through the bars? Did you experience that? If so anywhere particular in the rev range?
few days ago i 1st saw an amazing harly bike i said this is the one i want its called the bronx but sadly harly decide to cancel the project and the bronx project is dead but this bike is bronx twins am really glad
Hello from Slovakia. CF Motos have a five years warranty or 40000 km in Slovakia and Czech republic. Standard warranty is 2 years and regional dealer gives another 3-year warranty.
Well it’s more competition in the market, so this reason alone is a good thing. I agree about the colour, the blue looks much better. All in all I have to give a 👍 decent looking bike. Thanks for the review. Oh I almost forgot, “Crack” 😉
Excellent review Mark! A great bike too for the price. Will the UK be getting all the other variants too? The Sport & the Adventure? I do like the sport. How is the price compared to the Royal Enfield Interceptor in the UK? One is modern, the other classic looking. Did you try the cruise control function? I didn’t see you do that?🤔 Otherwise, great seeing Cfmoto in the UK & hope they sell well there!👍
Hi, yes but not in video as Cruise control is simply that....dull lol. Price compared to RE is a couple of hundred pounds more but much better quality. Yes, UK will be getting other variants in 2022.
Nice review, but design is not from Kiska like other bikes from CFMoto. It is made by studio Modena 40 (Carles Solsona Marti). He make or maked desing also for MV Agusta bikes.
4 year warranty. That's if you can find a dealer and get parts. Warranties protect dealers not owners. More Chinese invasion via the economic back door. Does look nice for the youth and great review 👍
Some warranties can be supplier focussed. Never dealer focussed as labour is often paid at less than what I pay a mechanic per hour. Dealers never win on warranties.
When you mentioned you only really need the clutch for start up, are you able to upshift and downshift without it? Sorry if this seems like a silly question. I am not an expert on manual bikes but I am very interested in this particular one. The only issue is the hassle of always clutching in heavy traffic for me. Thank you
4year warranty but on what service intervals? Looks a nice bike but I'm not a fan of the short seat that seems to be in fashion, I'd like to see the underpinnings in a different style of bike.
@@motorsforthemasses double what a Yamaha xsr700 would be? It doesn't instill much faith in Chinese bikes when their service intervals are so short, and although a lot of bike for the money this isn't cheap.
Great review, seriously considering, for the money I can’t see past this. Quite like the silver/brown. Don’t like buying used bikes. What else for £6,500 is there to compare to that? Similarly equipped Trident is over £2,000 more.
@@motorsforthemasses yep, looking forward to that. It looks fantastic so hope you enjoyed testing it. Regret I’m a bit old for a sportsbike, bought a G1 to get back in to it, based on your review thanks, it’s great but looking to go up a step so I can start going places.
Not that it matters too much but I believe this bike was not a Kiska design but from cooperation with Modena 40. The Kiska partnership is alive and well with CFMoto, and is far more evident in the MT, and GT model lines.
Great detailed video as usual! 👍 Saw these last summer in a dealer here in Hong Kong, you certainly get a lot of bike for your money with CFMoto. There are a few neo-retro bikes which this 700 fits in with (such as the XSR you mentioned, and the new Z650rs), good to see CFMoto competing here, we need more to push this market in creative directions. Styling is a personal opinion, I have seen many people really like this 700’s style, I’m not a fan. I really like their touring bikes, 650GT and MT, and for me the NK series look better than their Japanese competition like the Z650 and MT07.
I got one too best bike you could get for this price for sure but cant seem to find any accessories only in aliexpress but they dont seem very trustworthy
great looking bike,, will it hold its price when used,i had a svartpilen 401 ,when i changed it no dealer here in northern ireland was willing to give you a good price for trade in
I think the Husky was a very marmite bike and too many people fell on the dislike looks side of it so they never sold well. I like them but they are pretty small.
Have a look at the 2nd hand price of cfmoto's, they are a bargain for the 2nd buyer but the person buying them new takes a massive hit on depreciation.
Great review again ,so glad you gave it a good review,,,new you would like it .all I got to do now is wait for it ,,,,meny thanks again for the video,,,keep up your good works,,,,,,,,p.s. how was you feeling the next day after the scrambler week end ,,,would recommend a good alcohol rub on the In side lol,,,,,,,
Also how comes these motorcycles can’t be restricted? Ive been looking at the 650 nk and the mt’s but found out they can’t be restricted, was wondering do they mean via the ECU and the throttle stop or they talking just ECU can’t be restricted?
No one explained me why SUV's exhist; as no one explained me why bykes must have half seats... no mudguards and even no hooks for soft luggage. I can understand why central stands disapeared...but I don't like; lubbing a chain is boring and is a mess.
Come on 13liters of fuel on a big engine. what is this new fashion and the back of this bike. do they think it's great to copy costum harley bike's ??? But a big THANKS for the review 😃
Iv seen a couple of really good reviews on this bike brand now.i haven't seen one in the wild yet.but the only think I don't like is the name.it like it's trying to be a premium brand with a cheap Chinese name.and it just the name that doesn't give me confidence in the quality 🤔
@@motorsforthemasses Thanks for this. Power doesn't really bother me, nice to have more but a 650 already has plenty. I've been without a bike for 4 years or so, having had a Versys 650 and a VFR400 before that, so something comfy and cheap with a bit of power is what i'm after, and so far the 650NK, the 700CL-X and the Benelli 502c are the main 3 i'm interested in.

Hi was the cafe racer / sport available. I love the looks of it Honda should copy the look if they do a new NC750S.😁😁😁
Hi, Not available in UK until 2022
Hello from America, just to let you know. Cfmotos only have a two year warranty here in the states.
Hi, that's disappointing, must be a franchise thing?
Hello from Slovakia. CF Motos have a five years warranty or 40000 km in Slovakia and Czech republic. Standard warranty is 2 years and regional dealer gives another 3-year warranty.
Dark blue appeals more because of the black seat. I am not Italian, I don't do brown seats. 😀
So, the question is would people buy this CFMoto CLX or for a few hundred pound more get a Yam MT-07? Shame you can't do a comparison side by side
Well it’s more competition in the market, so this reason alone is a good thing.
I agree about the colour, the blue looks much better.

Great review again ,so glad you gave it a good review,,,new you would like it .all I got to do now is wait for it ,,,,meny thanks again for the video,,,keep up your good works,,,,,,,,p.s. how was you feeling the next day after the scrambler week end ,,,would recommend a good alcohol rub on the In side lol,,,,,,,
No issues at all, probably didn't ride hard enough lol.
Is there a cruise control because there is a tourer in the offing? Odd that from a distance it looks to have a massively oversized tank, but.....
Yes there is.....
Which is the better bike head to head with the Benelli 752s?
Benelli have been stingey on giving me a 752...had too much else to do to chase it to be honest.
Also how comes these motorcycles can’t be restricted? Ive been looking at the 650 nk and the mt’s but found out they can’t be restricted, was wondering do they mean via the ECU and the throttle stop or they talking just ECU can’t be restricted?
Where can I test ride one? I'm in Hampshire
Sir, on the front tire, would it fit a 120/80?
The Benelli 752S seems sportier and it comes (here in Israel anyway) with 5 years warranty.
Too heavy.
what helmet is that ?? It looks great!
A one off fibreglass and carbon Roof Boxxer
Anyone knows where i can get some accessories for this bike? There are some in aliexpress but cant really trust them
Everything is great but what about this jar of honey on handlebar🤔
Can I take them tires and install it on mt07 ?
how's the cost of maintenance?
Hello, what brand and model are your helmets for this program
Hi, this was the Fibreglass Roof Boxxer with chrome visor
New subscriber.
🇰🇪🇰🇪👏👏👏
Hey there.
Bit of a weird question maybe, but how many revs will this motor run at while holding 110kmh to 120kmh?
15:50
I like your helmet what's the name of it I like to find one 😃👌
I prefer a big single. Much like the Husqvarna 701. Thumpers for life.
Lol, fair enough...it is thumper-esque lol
thubs up from me.
Hi , is crankshaft 270 degree ?
Sadly, no. It's based on the Kawasaki 650 motor.
No one explained me why SUV's exhist; as no one explained me why bykes must have half seats... no mudguards and even no hooks for soft luggage. I can understand why central stands disapeared...but I don't like; lubbing a chain is boring and is a mess.
My Turn Signal turns off be the turn. Help.
Sadly they do if they are activated too early and on big roundabouts...it is annoying
Come on 13liters of fuel on a big engine. what is this new fashion and the back of this bike.
do they think it's great to copy costum harley bike's ???
But a big THANKS for the review 😃

damn!
Talking about CFmoto how is your NK650 getting on? You had that a couple of years now and Ive wondered how it has faired?
I also sold it 2 years ago...new owner still has it.
Iv seen a couple of really good reviews on this bike brand now.i haven't seen one in the wild yet.but the only think I don't like is the name.it like it's trying to be a premium brand with a cheap Chinese name.and it just the name that doesn't give me confidence in the quality 🤔
Get over it about the Chinese brand. It is only in your mind where a deeply set racial thing is still bothering you.
I like motorcycle
I think it got 68NM of torque not 48.
I never said it had 48 nm of torque. I said it had 50 lb ft of torque...which is 68 nm
Do you think this is worth the extra price over the 650NK?
Hmm, yes, but not necessarily for the power aspect. It is quicker but it looks so much better I feel and handles very well, a bit better than the NK
@@motorsforthemasses Thanks for this. Power doesn't really bother me, nice to have more but a 650 already has plenty. I've been without a bike for 4 years or so, having had a Versys 650 and a VFR400 before that, so something comfy and cheap with a bit of power is what i'm after, and so far the 650NK, the 700CL-X and the Benelli 502c are the main 3 i'm interested in.
I like Marmite, but the rear hugger is just awful.
Sounds delicious? Yummy!
