Well , I got me one of these two weeks ago. I absolutely love it!! I've had many bikes throughout the years... huge bikes as well. But in the Twisties this gem is just wonderful it's the 2023 version just lovely. I'm breaking her in , she is at 400 kilometers right now. The CST tyres are grippy, very grippy actually. I'm having more fun on this bike than any other I've had! I traded in my Zontes 350GK Sporting Cafe, for this CFMOTO 300SR. It's way more comfortable than I thought it would be. 😊
I am a Filipino and I like how you review this bike. Here in the Philippines, more Filipinos don't like bikes that are made in China because they think Chinese brands have low quality without thinking that most of the products here are made in China and I don't like that kind of attitude. Most of those who don't like China-made motorcycles are what we call "Kamote riders" or reckless drivers.
You are wrong and spreading fake information. Filipinos hate Chinese made products because of the territorial disputes more than anything else. And may if not all Filipinos know that most of the products in their country are made in China. So stop spreading lies and misinformation.
I’ve seen this for sale in the Philippines for around £2500 😅 and in Turkey for a touch over £4000. I just relocated to Turkey and trying to work out best place to buy it… any tips?
Well, with the exchange rate increasing, it’s now cheaper despite the lira price of the bike being higher! Problem is getting one, the situation between distribution and dealerships is pretty shocking - you can’t buy one because they don’t know when they will get a delivery. Bonkers.
in my opinion, even though the bike is light, it's a tad underpowered. I get that they made it single cylinder, but 30 hp is just a bit too low for its class. the R3 will just smoke it in most departments, and lets not talk about how much better the ninja 400 is for A2 boys that want a faster bike, along with the rc 390. Sure it's cheap, but really, CF should take a note out of KTM's homework and make that single cylinder bigger. If it had over 40 hp, I'd take it in a heartbeat, even if a bit more expensive, over the ugly ass rc 390.
in philippines we compare this bike to the yamaha r15 , honda cbr150r and suzuki gsxr 150 because of the price range! in this bike compare to its japanese counterpart you get more power coz its a 300cc at the same price of japanese 150cc bike
bro you should compare bikes with money not with cc .. if company gives you 300 cc in 150 cc other bikes price range..than just compare it with 150 cc..not with 300, 400 cc which cost double or triple price👀
It's not always about what smokes what, it's about what is convenient, good value and gets your girlfriend riding on something that's not scary/second agile bike to Potter over to work on that is not as precious as your main bike.
Took GF to sit in one yesterday and its pretty low, but GF has short legs so low height all round needed for confidence building.... but for UK the roads/speed bumps aren't bad generally... milage may vary in other locations.
@@101BadBreath thanks. I have already bought one last December. An excellent sportsbike for beginners of the category. Hell, even my brother who has no interest in motorcycles borrows mine from time to time. Here in the Philippines though, some speed bumps are made too high that the underbelly sometimes gets hit if you are not slow and careful.
Ah cool, she ordered one and should be able to pick it up on Friday :)... I have warned her about speed bumps just in case... Will be starting her in some parking lots the first day and get out on some quiet roads and she have comms with me so I will also keep an eye out and call out any danger.
Good review unfortunately I can't see anyone in this country buying one. Why would you pay nearly 4k for this when you could get something like an ex demo KTM duke 390 with 15bhp more for the same amount? I'm not trying to rain on your parade I think it's really good all these Chinese manufacturers have upped their game but still if it was your money eh?
This bike also comes with a 4 year warranty, which the ex-demo KTM wouldn't have. Plus we sold out the first batch before they arrived into the country...
It gets eaten alive by any other 300cc and even some 250s… it’s available in the Philippines for £2500. Under £3500 would be a different ball game. I’m trying to work out best way to get one for less, relocated to Turkey where the 250SR is priced at £3650 at the current exchange rate all in… but I really want the 300 😅 help?
yeah review is not bad, but i got a little bit of cringe when i saw the close-up with the shoelaces so near to the chain. Shoes with Shoelaces on a motorbike are a big no-no !
this bike in the philippines is much cheaper with same price with yamaha r15 with only 155cc, i'll go for cfmoto for the cheaper price and bigger displacement
Brilliant video. Love the fact that your not shouting at 60mph into a go pro like most videos. Well impressed with your professionalism.
have done about 15,000km on my 2020 model. Pretty underpowered, but survived a crash and hasn’t let me down once. heaps of fun in the twisties.
When you say underpowered, is that compared to other bikes at the same cc's or just as a whole?
@@brandonthomas4527 Probably as a whole, it is a sports touring tho so it's understandable
I've never been on anything above 125cc.. I'd 💩 my pants

It looks brilliant looking for a 300, well done 👍🏻
$6000 nzd but I got a 3 year unlimited km warranty with a exile exhaust it crackles and pops all the time. Love it
Whoa who did this deal?
Looks really beautiful.
300 sr user here is the best for the cheaper price and basic to use❤️❤️❤️
Hello, is it reliable ? I am afraid that after 20k km will break down
@@cipriannicolescu9067 200k km

Bike looks great!
Will be mine so soon 🙆🏻♀️♥️🙌🏼

Haha these days I see Filipinos love cfmoto. Probably repping the most.
Thank you so much it's very helped me!
Is it comfortable for (1,90) tall rider?
Sure hopes this Channel grows 😁
Thank you very much John👊

Best reliable website my friends get all they toys From here if I had more dinero I would be doin the same
Of the two.. clearly Philippines
Chinese near in Philippines thats why low cost

You miss it's target demo entirely there dude.
Checkout the 450SR. Blows the R3 away and is the same price with the KTM and almost the same if not better performance (power to weight ratio).
compañero me recomiendas esta maquina como primer moto? Me da miedo que por ser marca china o asi me salga con problemas
If you have the money , take yamaha R3 or ninja 400 .
If you haven't the money , take Cf moto 300.
Is there a recommended stainless exhaust for the 300SR or NK? Mild steel feels like it won't last long on UK roads.
can u get it in germany/ import it to germany?
How's the ground clearance with regards to speed bumps? Cuz from the side, the bike seems pretty low.

waiting to launch in india
what is the purple light under the front hood?
I like your jacket! Nice what brand is that?
You could ask Adam Binnie himself on Twitter - twitter.com/AdamBcars
So 250sr in China 300sr in UK why?
I am 1,84 . It's Ok for me or not ? .
you will be little tall
for this bike..cause seat height is low..780mm
Mine is smelling like burnt already, fix your motorcycles please

how is this less powerful than a single cylinder NSR150?

just get the 450 and spare yourself the trouble and slowness of a 1 cylinder
made in china?
Yes CFMOTO manufacture in China and are the Asian partners for KTM. Also distributing Husqvarna now too
chinese bike lol
Your clothes are chinese too . dumb 😂
Thats 300cc.. Just wait theres 450cc with 2 cylinder.. The power is almost the same as yamahas R3... Hope cf moto can release that 450SR n UK..
