I was in the market for a starter bike (49 yo male) and found my local dealer had one marked down to $3200 OTD…PLUS an additional year (3 total) warranty! I ran, not walk, to the dealer and cash purchased. Based my purchase off your and many other videos, but as a COMO man myself now in KC, I love your videos. You didn’t love the larger CFMOTO (can’t remember which one) but that told me you were being genuine about this one. Only downside is the limited after market, like adjustable levers…really that’s it. Hits 85mph for me so nothing scary yet lets me get on the highway to get home when Im lost. 😂. Great bike and thanks for the review. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for the kind words! I try to keep things honest around here. Awesome to hear you got a smoking deal on one of these machines. Not every CFMOTO I've ridden has been a home run, but when you've got exceptional features at incredible value, it's hard to make an argument against them. Aftermarket support is going to improve as time passes - big players like Yoshimura are finally coming around, so I can't imagine other guys are too far off. Thanks for watching and ride safe. 😎
The Mode button disables the ABS of rear wheel and changes the way it accelerate. The ramp of acceleration. It moves the response of acceleration near the end of full throttle. So is more eco on starting and more smooth on rain. But it is hard to feel that difference.
I've had my 2022 300NK for 4 weeks now. Absolutely love it. My only gripe, is I wish it was a little heavier for road stability and low speed throttle is a little choppy. Apart from that it's a killer bike. Thanks for another great review Omni 👍 🇦🇺
This is the comment I was looking for,, the throttle st low speed is very jerky and it's brand new from factory..and yes it's very lightweight 333lbs wet so when I take it to the freeway it is not ideal if it's windy at all ..uts pretty much a great street bike not highway
Purchased mine a week ago. Awesome bike and very fun to ride. Only issue I have is the little bit of play in the throttle at idle which the dealership said they can fix, but other than that its been awesome so far. I'm keen to see how it holds up long term. Nice review 👍 🇦🇺
FYI (if it hasn't been mentioned yet)... the bike does have ECO and SPORT riding modes. The TFT display is different for the two. It also says ECO or SPORT bottom center in the display... If there is any noticeable difference between the two is another matter entirely lol.
Not goina lie the bike looks fuking dope there with you sitting on it man. I never been a fan of “off brands” as you will. But I’m coming around for sure on this one
Hey, thanks for watching! CFMOTO is far from an "off brand". I recommend doing a bit of searching online to learn more about who they are and where they've come from. It's interesting to see just how quickly they've blown up in the last 10 years alone.
After riding through some heavy rain here in Florida my CFMoto 300nk will not stay started in neutral. Straight up got stuck in the rain, it wouldn't start. Had to push it to a church under this overhang and after waiting a couple hours it finally started for me but would not stay started. It will start, and I can quickly switch into 1st gear and pull off and it will drive, as soon as I'm at a light though it shuts off, then I have to repeat starting and shifting immediately to get going. So far I've had pretty bad support and an issue with parts being unavailable even online! The bike shows promise, but not being able to ride in the rain is insane. Idk I wish I had gotten a Honda, dealer of the CFMoto lied and told me it was just as easy to get parts as they're an "official CFMoto Dealer" but that's def not the case.
It’s been a while since I first started advocating for the brand. I still believe in the product. I understand how frustrating it can be to have issues like the ones you are running into. At this point, I can say that CFMOTO has almost become a brand known for performance/fit/finish/price but they are being held back by their parts availability, because it’s similar to higher-end motorcycles like BMW, KTM, Ducati, and Aprilia (in regard to lead times/back order) My recommendation is to check your connections. Pull the seat off, and make sure all of your harnesses are connected and water tight. Next step would be to call a dealer with more experience with the brand. Personally, I think you should call Main Street Cycle in Mississippi and see if they’ll help you over the phone. They seem to know quite a bit about the CF on-road lineup from the brief experience they’ve had - it is a great crew. Their channel is @RealTalkPowersports. If they are not close to you, call a larger dealer near a city who has more volume/riders - odds are they have come across the same issue and might be able to troubleshoot over the phone. Finally, if you haven’t yet, join the Facebook group for 300 NK/SS. If you need a link to make sure you get the right one, email me at omnimoto1@gmail.com Again, sorry you are having trouble, but I hope this helps. Ride safe.
@@Omni_Moto Thank you so much for your response! Regardless of the issues I’ve had, I absolutely love the bike. I think they did a great job designing the bike and it’s very high quality. My issues are that the dealer was not as up front with me about the potential for it being a little harder to get parts and that there were no 3rd party parts for this bike, on top of it they sold me oil that was not synthetic, I asked for and paid for Synthetic it was even higher priced, but I drove way to far on a non-sythetic oil change, and the bike seized. At least that’s what the dealer said, they told me there was no oil in the engine at all and questioned if the correct amount of oil was put in at the last oil change. Come to find out the engine was filled with oil, I took the bike to a random bike shop and they took the engine out (I got lucky and found an engine on eBay off another 300nk with only 1600 miles, only one in the country in fact) when they took the original out it poured out oil all over the rest of the bike so there was definitely lots of oil in the bike. They told me the bike was well lubricated and that the engine has potential to come back as only some small pipes were bent somehow. The shop told me they must have put the bike together wrong and that attributed to the bike failing and that the oil wasn’t the issue. Not sure what to think, West Coast Powersports definitely seems shady to me now though. I will be following all of your advice, thank you so much for everything. I agree that CFMOTO has great potential and their bikes are great, this is an issue of the people I felt with get the bike on the first place!
😮wow,I just thought the black version was gorgeous,but man this one looks flipping kool,I gotta get me one of these soon,wish I could find this color at a dealership here where I live.
The 300NK is tough to beat when it comes to value. If it's your first motorcycle, the savings are worth the decline in power and tech while you're still learning. Thanks for watching and ride safe. 😎
For their model year 2023.5 I'm not sure why they thought it was a good idea to move the front turn signals so low. If you drop the bike even at a slow speed you will snap it off. Other than that ....looks nice. On their website no accessories listed; screen, bags, etc.
Bought 2021 model used with 2500 miles, great bike. Only thing that bugs me is check engine turning on after a ride in the rain. Went to dealer, they.said it is nothing to worry about..something about exauhst idk..we will see in the future how it holds up
Hmmm. The only way I could foresee the exhaust interfering with anything in the onboard self-diagnosing check-engine-light system would be an oxygen sensor getting wet from the rain. I'd call and ask to schedule a service to diagnose. Depending on when it was originally registered in 2021, it may still be under the factory warranty. The dealership might charge a flat rate for diagnostics, but if the components causing the CEL are covered by the OEM warranty, you might be able to get them replaced. Good luck!
@@Omni_Moto thank you for the response! My bike is most likely not under warranty as it was first registered 02.08.2021 (d/m/y), and i have not recived any papers from previous owner regarding warranty. My bike was due to its second service 4 days ago, and i went to cf moto service in my country. And they said that cel should'nt be a problem. I have another cf moto service but it is aprox 100 miles from me..i wil have to make a few calls i guess
There are available aftermarket seats that can lower the seat a little bit, but getting it a full 1-4 inches lower is tough and can negatively impact the handling of the machine. If you're worried about getting both of your feet on the ground, I would instead focus on just having one foot on the ground to keep yourself stable. Having both feet on the ground creates bad habits for new riders and in truth, you only need 1 foot down to keep you upright when stopped. Best thing to do would be to get into a showroom and sit on one to see how well you can keep it stood up. Sometimes we have to take a realistic approach though and understand there are bikes out there that are not feasible for every rider. Hope this helps. Ride safe! 😎
I believe the rear sprocket is 45 teeth. As for a replacement for more torque, it may be easier to just replace the front sprocket instead, and you'll likely be able to find a better universal fit. Here's a search query link (m.aliexpress.com/wholesale/cfmoto-sprocket.html) that should give you some options to look through for different sprocket sizes. Fitment is a little hard to nail down, but you can always scour RUclips for people who have swapped their sprockets to see what they bought, and you can also join the Facebook group for 300SS/300NK/450SS to ask your question there. Hope this helps!
Any issues thus far? I'm looking to buy one as my first bike and I'm worried about how fast things ware out and brake. Any problems on the hwy after a few hours?
@TB33man no problems at all mate, I push the bike really hard too. I usually ride for about 20-30min at full throttle going to and coming home from work. I am at the point of pushing the bike all the way to its limit and nothing has gone wrong at all, I love my little CF naked.
Would you recommend having this motorcycle as my first bike? I just got my license; I already know how to drive a car, and learning to ride a motorcycle wasn’t difficult. I would also like to know if you have a review of the NK450. I love that motorcycle and would love to have it. People tell me that if I have the money, I should buy it. Greetings from Colombia.
This is an awesome first bike, but since you already know how to ride a motorcycle and you found it fairly simple, I'd recommend bumping up to the 450NK. You'll get more use out of it and won't feel the desire to upgrade as quickly which benefits you in the long run. Thank you for watching and ride safe!
@@Omni_Moto Thank you very much for responding. It’s been several weeks since I watched your video, and I decided to buy the 450NK. I took it for a test ride, and they are very smooth, small bikes that fit the rider well and are easy to maneuver. I felt very comfortable. The only issue is the passenger seat. Other than that, they are excellent bikes. Here in Bogotá, Colombia, CF MOTO has been well-received by the motorcycle community
Im from Argentina, have a hero hunk 160r. Wanna go up in the cc and this bike is the winner at the moment. Good to see content of this bike so i can have more info on it. Thanks and you got a new sus! PD: I really apreciate that you put metric units also =)
hey so im getting into motorcycles and Im wondering if this bike is tall person friendly (6'4"). Im not sure if youll see this because its been a year but id be really grateful for your input
Hey there! The best way to know is to get into a showroom and sit on one. Oftentimes it depends more so on your inseam rather than your overall height. There are a lot of variables at play aside from overall height like the inseam, torso length, wingspan, and knee-thigh ratio haha. If we are going strictly off of your height though then I think you may find yourself a little cramped on this machine, as it is a small package. I would consider visiting with the 450NK that has a taller seat height and is a larger capacity machine. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching and ride safe.
If you want a sporty riding position, go for the 300SS. If you want a more commuter friendly position, go for the 300NK. Both bikes have the same engine, chassis, transmission, and suspension. Thanks for watching! Ride safe. 😎
I can't say it will work with 100% certainty, so I'll just say maybe it will work. Your best course of action would be to talk to an authorized dealer who sells both of them and can determine cross-compatibility. The chances of them doing this for free are very slim, so be prepared to pay for their time investment into the project.
Hey Oddity, there should be some adjustment in the throttle cable. If you're not confident in taking on the task of adjusting it yourself, I'd contact your local dealership to see if they can help you out. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!
My personal choice is the NK because I prefer a more upright seating position, a lower price would just be an additional bonus. You should sit on both and decide for yourself though, that way you know what type of seating position you'll be living with once you purchase. Thanks for watching! Ride safe.
@@alekharry2223 I am 185cm. I find it fits me very well, so you would fit decent on it, possibly a little tight depending on your inseam and weight. Any motorcycle after 1 hour of riding warrants a stop + stretch.
No, Bob. Eco and sport mode have no observable difference in fueling. The manual just says “for different riding experience” but doesn’t explicitly state what each mode does. All it changes is the display. I have actually tested this in real world application, and I’m assuming you haven’t. Just so you can be enlightened and see for yourself, watch my 300SS video (same powertrain/output ratings) and fast forward to about 3 minutes and 50 seconds. ruclips.net/video/s7ynZ863naY/видео.html Thanks for watching and thanks for the challenge. Stay informed. Ride safe.
you need to stop first before switching modes, from ECO mode, stop and put it to neutral and then switch or press to SPORT mode. there you will see the difference, thank me later. @@Omni_Moto
anyone with an inseam lower than 30 tried this yet? 27 inch here. the dealership is a country away, can't be bothered to try it out in person without having some good news
Hey there! With a 27" inseam you might be hard pressed to get both of your feet on the ground - BUT! As long as you can get at least one of your feet on the ground while the other one is balanced on the foot peg, you can ride just about anything. I've seen riders with shorter inseams than you ride these bikes, so it is possible. Best of luck. Thanks for watching! Ride safe. 😎
The closest thing they have is the CL-X 700 Adventure, but that bike is only available in markets outside of the US. That said, you could probably buy the US version of a CL-X 700 and set it up with some modifications. So I guess the short answer is, they don’t really have a bike set up to be a scrambler (unless your in Asian/African/Euro markets). Hope that answers your question.
Hi Usman! In the USA the motorcycle MSRP is $4,199 and the fees vary from dealer to dealer. The store I work at sells the 300NK for right around $5,700 before taxes. Each dealership is different though, and the market has a pretty wide spread as you look at different areas of the country.
Try these guys. They're based in the USA and stock a lot of CFMOTO parts to avoid the lead times. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching. cfmotousaparts.com/product/cfmoto-oil-change-kit-2022-300nk/
no doubt Honda a better bike; however, I can get a new 300nk $3400 OTD with taxes and tags included. Big incentives on them now. Honda ~$7k with dealer fees and such.
Depends on your budget. Honda will cost more, but could potentially be better long run for parts availability and resale value. Go with what feels right to you! Thanks for watching. 😎
Unfortunately CFMOTOs don't hold up. I got a few months out of my 300ss before the crank case cracked. I bought the bike last July and by October, it was broke. Only 380 miles on it when it broke. Dealer still has the bike. Can't get parts. CFMOTO will not give me a replacement. This brand completely sucks. Spend the money for a Japanese sport bike. Less features, but quality engines.
No clue. Try selecting the phone from the bike and vice versa. If that doesn’t work, try turning your phone on/off. If that doesn’t work, try to disconnect the battery on the bike, wait 1 minute, reconnect it, then try to pair. If that doesn’t work, call the dealer and see if they could identify if there is a bad Bluetooth module. You might also check to see if you can locate the Bluetooth module to make sure it’s plugged in. If none of that works, I have no idea what to do from that point.
I just recently got my 2022 300nk delivered from the dealer and I am loving it, only found out about them because of your videos.
I was in the market for a starter bike (49 yo male) and found my local dealer had one marked down to $3200 OTD…PLUS an additional year (3 total) warranty! I ran, not walk, to the dealer and cash purchased. Based my purchase off your and many other videos, but as a COMO man myself now in KC, I love your videos. You didn’t love the larger CFMOTO (can’t remember which one) but that told me you were being genuine about this one.
Only downside is the limited after market, like adjustable levers…really that’s it. Hits 85mph for me so nothing scary yet lets me get on the highway to get home when Im lost. 😂.
Great bike and thanks for the review. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for the kind words! I try to keep things honest around here. Awesome to hear you got a smoking deal on one of these machines. Not every CFMOTO I've ridden has been a home run, but when you've got exceptional features at incredible value, it's hard to make an argument against them.
Aftermarket support is going to improve as time passes - big players like Yoshimura are finally coming around, so I can't imagine other guys are too far off.
Thanks for watching and ride safe. 😎
Test rode it today. Fell in love. Love everything about it really

@@dazoedave i ride mine in almost exclusively in 3rd gear at lower speeds. may not be great for the bike, but it's great for my neck.

hey so im getting into motorcycles and Im wondering if this bike is tall person friendly (6'4"). Im not sure if youll see this because its been a year but id be really grateful for your input
Hey there! The best way to know is to get into a showroom and sit on one. Oftentimes it depends more so on your inseam rather than your overall height. There are a lot of variables at play aside from overall height like the inseam, torso length, wingspan, and knee-thigh ratio haha.
If we are going strictly off of your height though then I think you may find yourself a little cramped on this machine, as it is a small package. I would consider visiting with the 450NK that has a taller seat height and is a larger capacity machine.
Hope this helps! Thanks for watching and ride safe.
Can we adjust the rear suspension its very stiff for me..
There should be a pre-load adjust on the rear shock IIRC
How about sr300 compare to nk 300 planning to buy but I dont know what to pick?
If you want a sporty riding position, go for the 300SS. If you want a more commuter friendly position, go for the 300NK. Both bikes have the same engine, chassis, transmission, and suspension.
Thanks for watching! Ride safe. 😎
@@Omni_Moto thanks for the advice ridesafe bro!
Bro rear suspension very stiff can i use duke 250 mono shocker on nk300 bike pls reply
I can't say it will work with 100% certainty, so I'll just say maybe it will work. Your best course of action would be to talk to an authorized dealer who sells both of them and can determine cross-compatibility. The chances of them doing this for free are very slim, so be prepared to pay for their time investment into the project.
Is there any different between the 2022 and 2023? From what i've seen they are identical.
Same bike.
Any idea how to fix the loose throttle by any chance?
Hey Oddity, there should be some adjustment in the throttle cable. If you're not confident in taking on the task of adjusting it yourself, I'd contact your local dealership to see if they can help you out. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!
1:46 Take note that the km/l figure here is wrong, the actual km/l conversion is about 29.7km/l

JUst windering between a 2021 300nk vs a 300sr 2022 with a slight difference in price and distance in the favour of the nk. Which one would u pick
My personal choice is the NK because I prefer a more upright seating position, a lower price would just be an additional bonus. You should sit on both and decide for yourself though, that way you know what type of seating position you'll be living with once you purchase. Thanks for watching! Ride safe.
Are the brakes good? I watched someone else's review and they said they weren't good. What's your opinion?
For a budget bike, the brakes are good. I'm not sure what those other people expect out of a
@@Omni_Moto Would you say it's a little too low for a 187cm person? Would that become uncomfortable when riding longer than 1h?
@@alekharry2223 I am 185cm. I find it fits me very well, so you would fit decent on it, possibly a little tight depending on your inseam and weight.
Any motorcycle after 1 hour of riding warrants a stop + stretch.
Thinking about getting one, will it do highway speeds?
Yep! Can safely do 70MPH with a little bit more after that. Top speed is about 90-105MPH
@@Omni_Moto thank you
Can the ABS be shut off?
you should probably read the manual bc it says right in it that sport and eco do in fact matter
No, Bob. Eco and sport mode have no observable difference in fueling. The manual just says “for different riding experience” but doesn’t explicitly state what each mode does. All it changes is the display. I have actually tested this in real world application, and I’m assuming you haven’t. Just so you can be enlightened and see for yourself, watch my 300SS video (same powertrain/output ratings) and fast forward to about 3 minutes and 50 seconds. ruclips.net/video/s7ynZ863naY/видео.html
Thanks for watching and thanks for the challenge. Stay informed. Ride safe.
@@Omni_Moto OK mystery guy to ugly to show ur face LOL
im telling you 100% it does matter but its only a 300 so like you said it doesnt make a huge difference READ IT AGAIN
you need to stop first before switching modes, from ECO mode, stop and put it to neutral and then switch or press to SPORT mode. there you will see the difference, thank me later.
@@Omni_Moto
anyone with an inseam lower than 30 tried this yet?
27 inch here. the dealership is a country away, can't be bothered to try it out in person without having some good news
Hey there! With a 27" inseam you might be hard pressed to get both of your feet on the ground - BUT! As long as you can get at least one of your feet on the ground while the other one is balanced on the foot peg, you can ride just about anything. I've seen riders with shorter inseams than you ride these bikes, so it is possible. Best of luck. Thanks for watching! Ride safe. 😎
Is there any difference between the 2022-2024 model years ? Or are they the same bike
Same bike.
Thanks for watching. Ride safe! 😎
Yes, the manufacturing year. I'd buy a 24 the 22s might not be worth the headache.
Do they make scramblers?
The closest thing they have is the CL-X 700 Adventure, but that bike is only available in markets outside of the US. That said, you could probably buy the US version of a CL-X 700 and set it up with some modifications.
So I guess the short answer is, they don’t really have a bike set up to be a scrambler (unless your in Asian/African/Euro markets).
Hope that answers your question.
how much is this(all fees included)? Can you please give me some idea? I am planning to get one :)
Hi Usman! In the USA the motorcycle MSRP is $4,199 and the fees vary from dealer to dealer. The store I work at sells the 300NK for right around $5,700 before taxes. Each dealership is different though, and the market has a pretty wide spread as you look at different areas of the country.
@@Omni_Moto thank you for the information.
is it still a pain in the ass to get parts like fuel filters or anything else for these bikes ?
Nope! The dealer network has grown significantly and obtaining parts is as easy as calling or visiting your dealer to get the items you need.
do you know a off-brand oil filter i can use? there is very little info online and will take 2 months to order from cfmoto
Try these guys. They're based in the USA and stock a lot of CFMOTO parts to avoid the lead times. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching.

Can you use the controls on the handlebar to change your music on your phone?
I believe the display just tells you what is playing, but does not allow you to change what is playing.
@@Omni_Moto Damn...
So this or the Honda cb300r?
no doubt Honda a better bike; however, I can get a new 300nk $3400 OTD with taxes and tags included. Big incentives on them now. Honda ~$7k with dealer fees and such.
Depends on your budget. Honda will cost more, but could potentially be better long run for parts availability and resale value. Go with what feels right to you! Thanks for watching. 😎
Unfortunately CFMOTOs don't hold up. I got a few months out of my 300ss before the crank case cracked. I bought the bike last July and by October, it was broke. Only 380 miles on it when it broke. Dealer still has the bike. Can't get parts. CFMOTO will not give me a replacement. This brand completely sucks. Spend the money for a Japanese sport bike. Less features, but quality engines.
I had mine for 10 days I put 267 miles on it then the case cracked so it’s getting fixed now for free
What bike should I get for beginner
You get your bike back?
This one@@jasonvillalobosrivera-ph3iz
There is a 4 year warranty ?
yoo I cant seem to connect my app to my phone. Why is that?
No clue. Try selecting the phone from the bike and vice versa.
If that doesn’t work, try turning your phone on/off.
If that doesn’t work, try to disconnect the battery on the bike, wait 1 minute, reconnect it, then try to pair.
If that doesn’t work, call the dealer and see if they could identify if there is a bad Bluetooth module.
You might also check to see if you can locate the Bluetooth module to make sure it’s plugged in.
If none of that works, I have no idea what to do from that point.
Bro knows I’m trying to buy one of these and this is bait, ITS WORKING
Mt 15 .. Laughing in corner 😂
Should I get this or a ktm duke 200?
