I cannot wait for CF MOTO 450 NK in the USA to arrive and will run to he dealer like a lunatic to buy one when it arrives. This checks all he boxes for handling fuel economy & Performance for fun rides to work etc. I rushed to the dealer to see he 450SR but could not deal with the cafe sport bike handlebar position and really liked the 300 Nk allot and its ergonomics was perfect for me and super fun to ride.
I rode250nk( which is the same version of 300 nk, but for Chinese market) and it’s one of the best 250 cc nakeds here, and the price is super cheap 2000$). But the new generation is on another level, the gearbox is way smoother, the quality has gotten better, and in general bike feels so much better, hope it comes soon to the USA and you can enjoy riding, you won’t be disappointed

Great review, seems to be CF Moto is getting better and better. I have seen your review on the 450 MT and I really enjoyed it. Keep your uploads up!!!! Greetings from Argentina
I like your commentary style very much and look forward to your commentary on CFMOTO450SR and Excelle 450RR. In addition, I remind you to be very careful when riding a bicycle on the road, because China has too many people, and there are always unruly people and children running around on the road.
Thank you, I try to ride “this way” where I can see the road, but you newer know for sure, try to be safer then last time! The new bikes are coming soon❤
My Kawasaki z400 has 8000 km on it and it’s 4 years old, feels like a brand new bike, CF moto is a brand new bike, by now it feels great, the gearbox is great too, not on the Kawasaki level though, I would pick it over Kawasaki to be honest, but one thing too mention, in China you can’t ride a bike that older then 13 years, crazy I know) in 13 years Kawasaki will probably be as good as a new bike too, cfmoto not so sure, and my girlfriend still prefers Kawasaki over other bikes (ktm 390 duke, cfmoto 450nk) due to the lower seat high)
@@eddywave3315 thank you so much =) i am wanting to get this bike, but this "steel tubular" frame got me questioning 450NK, i am not even sure if CFMoto meant it was made of steel that is why it is steel tubular, or it was just their term of how the frame was designed, like steel tubular design but materials are .. lets say alloy i am just afraid that 450NK is just really using plain steel tubes on their frame, and then after a year i would see rusts on the frame (or on welded parts), i wanted this bike, but i wanted it last long too =D
@@normalguywalking4450 I’ll head to Cfmoto soon, I will for sure address this issue, hope my Chinese will not let me down, I still believe that everything is on a decent level, but it doesn’t hurt to check✊
@@eddywave3315 thank you, will wait for your update if CFMoto provides answers =D because im just worried that some motorcycle facebook groups are saying that "450NK will not last long because of its 'steel' frame, it will rust in a year, and good luck riding it after maybe 5yrs" i really hope that is a false statement =)
@@eddywave3315 hi! i read an article that Duke390 is using STEEL TUBULAR TRELLIS FRAME, so im guessing 450NK's term of STEEL TUBULAR is the design and not the material? reference : en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KTM_390_series look for the word "frame"
Appreciate it! Yes it does! Me and my girlfriend we spent a fair amount of time riding together, but yes, it’s not the most comfortable seat for a pilion
Hi mate! Can you get the cfmoto 700mt to review? We still don't have it in Lithuania to test it, and I can't find any reviews of it in English just Spanish and Greek 😕
Good day to you) in China MT line doesn’t have 700mt, the older model is 650mt, and now they have mt800. The only bike with 700cc is CLX 700, and it has the same engine as mt 700, but recently they released a new restyled version of mt800 here in China, wanna make a review on this one, if there is any other Chinese bike you want to see let me know)
I hope it will be available there too, these new bikes bring something new to the game, can’t wait to see what people around the globe are going to say about it, new videos are coming soon, take care)
Dizimini have you rode the NK300 CF bike ? I test rode the NK300 Single and really like the rider ergonomics because it was super comfortable for me. I am 5-11 and 275lb and was blown away at how comfortable the NK300 was but have not sat on the new NK450 TWIN bike and really wanted to ride and buy one if it fits me like the NK300 for additional power and highway freeway cruise ability. Allot of the other small cc bikes have really cramped ergonomics and seem better suited for super short people .
I had NK250 which is 99% the same bike but for local market (review is on the channel), and if you liked ergonomics on NK 300 You would absolutely love ergonomics on NK 450, and I believe suspension on NK 450 Is really suitable for your weight. I’m 6.1 and 190 lb for reference and it felt much better then z400 or r3, for my size. It’s feels more comfortable then Duke 390 as well. One think I want you to know is that new CFMOTOs are way more reliable, I had some problems with older ones, new ones are on another level. I love NK 450, I think it’s my favorite beginner friendly naked so far
Great info！ 谢谢你🙏🏼 I’m trying to decide this or a 400f, everyone talks about long term reliability (Honda- no question) this needs time, (other thing is resale but I keeps my bikes). Do you know what the warranty is? (I’m in Kunming).
I don’t know about warranty, but I will tell you my story) in may i bought 2019 7000km z400 paid 27000, I thought Japanese bikes won’t loose value fast on the second hand market, but now the price of it is less then 20000, and I wish I would have bought NK450, coz it’s way better for what I do( learn wheelies and stuff) and NK450 is not dropping the price much, so if I want to swap z400 to nk I have to pay 5000+😂 I think nk450 is quite reliable, I rode one which had over 10000 km, and it runs like a brand new motorcycle. And you can’t ride a bike which is older than 13 years old in China, so reliability wise, your potential Honda in 13 years might be as good as a new bike, but you’ll not be able to ride legally, which is a bummer😒 but we live in China now, so there is nothing we can do😭 Hope it was somehow helpful 🤜🤛
I know you a snatchy bike - is there a way tone down the snatchy-ness of this bike? (I love everything about it - and with better throttle control it won’t an issue - just curious).
I don’t think you can make it less snatchy/snappy KTM Duke 390 is even more jerky)So I know what you’re talking about. I think you would love z400 it’s much less snatchy
@@eddywave3315 color selection won't be in my hands since only a handful of these bikes will be imported to my country. So will get whatever that is available 😂
@@eddywave3315 yeah i agree with you, color has never been my priority because i try to find value in bike features and looks. I currently own a Lifan KP250 in black and white. Cause that was the only option 😂
Wow impressive English accent. It's rare to encounter an eloquent Chinese guy on english language. Btw, I love your detailed review of the NK450. Since you're Chinese, any news about the the cruiser variant of the 450cc of CFMOTO?
Hi, thanks a lot for the accent) I’m not Chinese though, but I leave here for some time) CFMOTO made CLC450 which is a first cruiser/bobber from CFMOTO. It turns out it has the same 270 degree crank 449cc engine which has been slightly changed (40 bhp/42nm/torque) BTW the review is already on my YT channel, hope you like it)
I was at a group ride with someone who had a cfmoto 650 adventura that was like a year old and the metal was rusting real bad... They seem like great bikes that might need some metalurgy work for diffeent climates? Maybe were more humid out here in the us
I still have CFMOTO 250 NK from 2018, over 20000 km on it, the quality isn’t on the current level, new CFMOTOs feel times better, and I rode an older NK 400 , that was a heavy stiff and rusty bike, I had a very bad impression of it, but the newest CFMOTOs feel like they have nothing in common with older ones, but again only time can tell
It wasn’t running hot to my knowledge, but to be honest with you, I properly rode it in fall when it wasn’t hot or even warm, I don’t know wether it would run hot in summer when it’s hot
hard to choose the 450NK vs Duke 390 as a beginner. both very new and similar. biggest difference i can tell is the 450NK has more power but the Duke has quick shifter. leaning towards the Duke because i think i would like the quick shifter.
Duke is a bit taller, it’s jerkier from the bottom, but will be a bit slower later on, if you wanna learn wheelies duke is better, as a daily bike nk450 I think is better, and depending on where you are the price difference could be a huge factor, since the newest KTM Duke 390 isn’t available yet, nk is a newer bike overall
@@eddywave3315 thanks for replying. my height is 177cm so both bikes should be fine. i don't like the jerkiness, i would probably buy a fuelx lite. i will use it as a city commuter mostly with some highway. i'm in the netherlands, the price will be around €5700-6300. the duke 390 is much more expensive. possibly €7500-8000. that's possibly a €2000 difference, enormous difference for a similar bike. the NK450 might even be better. i have a question, seeing as the NK450 comes with a slipper clutch, do you know if it's possible do have a quick shifter and auto blipper installed? i think having a quick shifter and auto blipper will suit me well, but i don't know if you can have those when it has a slipper clutch already.
@@donderstorm1845 I will not lie, I don’t know wether you can install quick shifter, but something tells me it wouldn’t be as good as the one which comes in stock with KTM, many people asked for a direct back to back comparison between NK450 and Duke 390, it’s hard to arrange now, but I’ll try to make it happen, maybe it would help you to choose
I think you would like it, it’s a bit faster then sr450 btw, due to its lighter weight, and more playful, ergonomics is better as well for long time rides, but it’s playground is definitely a city
For me it’s nk450, I think it’s more fun you can do wheelies and I like “nakeds” more, but clc450 is extremely maneuverable as for a cruiser and it has exceeded my expectations, if you’re a shorter rider CLC might be more suitable for you, but either one is a great option
@@lamondaforestry Thank you! For my height (1.85) nk 450 is just perfect! CLC 450 was comfortable too, but given my rode priorities I would choose nk450.
Whatever you’re thanking me for, my pleasure, hope you like the video) If you have any suggestions for other videos hit me up, I’ll try to get it done ✊🏻
This model is now the real Z400 competitor, the old 400 is heavy for the CC like a Z900 weight. But the Kawasaki also updated the 400 into a 450 now like the new Eliminator and the Kymco-Kawasaki partnership for the middle weight class.
To be honest I rode a 2018 nk400, and I can’t say a single good word about it, it’s super heavy, handling is poor, brakes not so good, it just could be a particular NK400, maybe others are better, but it’s staggering how much better new CFMOTO are, the quality is great, brakes feel better than z400, it’s nimble and rapid, power delivery is flat and available from the bottom, I bought z400 for my girlfriend coz of the seat hight, I would say if you can’t ride at all z400 is still the safest bike, but nk overall feels better to me, what do you think?
@@eddywave3315it should be better. They come up with reason for the weight of old 400 like the stability on expressway against wind and getting use to the weight for upgrading if the rider wanna go for 600 plus cc. Because we have a stupid law that only 400cc above can use it and they ignore that the Z400 only little bit weight more than a 250cc Bajaj and the 400cc Bajaj is heavier like 20kg than Z400 and it is a single cylinder.
@@ElCachorro97 in China all the motorcycles aren’t permitted to be ridden on the expressway/highway, so the legal top speed is no more then 60 km/h. This is why I prefer light bikes over heavy ones
Maybe no one asked you before, but why is your nickame dizimini? dizi means something in turkish, and I was wondering if you are related to turkey somehow. but from your accent i can say, you got nothing related to turkey :) could you ellaborate on your nickname on yt? great review btw. makes me wanna sell my nk250 and get the bigger brother right now.
Hey 👋) I’m not related to Turkey ( as far as I know). But now I’m dead curious what is the meaning of it in Turkish, can you tell me please) The nick name comes from the first two letters of my and my girlfriend’s first and second name, I like the way it sounds) BTW I have a 2018 nk250 too) 22000 km on it, has problems but still pops some clutch wheelies on the first gear)
I love nk 800, my favorite Chinese bike so far, I rode it for a long time, was learning wheelies on it. Nk 450 is the best small/middle displacement naked in my opinion, nk800 looks better for sure
Wow, now that’s a question) I don’t think these bikes would be popular there to say the least, taking that it would be even more expensive then local brands, and how much they like each other not likely( at least in near future) in my opinion
449cc engine is really good, taking that CFMOTO doesn’t need to make a new engine for CL-X 450 ADV it would be a wise move. I talk to the stuff from time to time, and they wore alluding to 1000cc super bike, new 500cc 4 cylinder engine, and 675cc 3 cylinder engine, didn’t tell me anything about CL-X, but I agree that it would be a great bike. Will make a review if it’s here)
450 nk is 364 pounds. The 800 nk is 410 pounds. The 450 is much easier to maneuver. 450 is a great beginner bike. I think the top speed might be 105 mph (approx 175km)
I have a girlfriend, she’s 5.6 around 116 lb, she could ride both, but of course nk450 is way more approachable, but the seat is still a bit high, she’s a beginner and doesn’t feel comfortable if doesn’t flat foot it, so we bought her z400, but now she regrets, coz she fell in love with nk800😂
I cannot wait for CF MOTO 450 NK in the USA to arrive and will run to he dealer like a lunatic to buy one when it arrives. This checks all he boxes for handling fuel economy & Performance for fun rides to work etc. I rushed to the dealer to see he 450SR but could not deal with the cafe sport bike handlebar position and really liked the 300 Nk allot and its ergonomics was perfect for me and super fun to ride.

How about the clutch sir it is soft?or hard to pres
It’s soft and nice, but not as soft as Kawasaki Ninja or z400, but I liked it a lot, way softer then on most Ducati) hope it was useful

@@eddywave3315 ok thanks
It's currently being marketed with 270° crank engine. Interesting that you have a different configuration in china vs international market.
This is 270 crank as well, as far as I know they are the same all over the world, interesting if it isn’t this way
very honest review thanks
Appreciate it) I genuinely like NK450 even more then 450 SRS, bit more comfortable due to lower foot pegs, more applicable for city rides
Can’t wait to test drive one, once it comes to the states probably next spring
I think you would like it, it’s a bit faster then sr450 btw, due to its lighter weight, and more playful, ergonomics is better as well for long time rides, but it’s playground is definitely a city
Apenas en México esa Saliendo al Mercado .. saludos desde Zacatecas México..
Shout-out to people of Mexico , hope you enjoy NK 450
I cant decide if I should get clc450 or nk450
For me it’s nk450, I think it’s more fun you can do wheelies and I like “nakeds” more, but clc450 is extremely maneuverable as for a cruiser and it has exceeded my expectations, if you’re a shorter rider CLC might be more suitable for you, but either one is a great option
@@eddywave3315which of the two is better for commuting, filtering etc? Thanks and very nice videos!
@@lamondaforestry Thank you!
For my height (1.85) nk 450 is just perfect! CLC 450 was comfortable too, but given my rode priorities I would choose nk450.
Thank you so much bro.
Whatever you’re thanking me for, my pleasure, hope you like the video) If you have any suggestions for other videos hit me up, I’ll try to get it done ✊🏻
This model is now the real Z400 competitor, the old 400 is heavy for the CC like a Z900 weight. But the Kawasaki also updated the 400 into a 450 now like the new Eliminator and the Kymco-Kawasaki partnership for the middle weight class.
To be honest I rode a 2018 nk400, and I can’t say a single good word about it, it’s super heavy, handling is poor, brakes not so good, it just could be a particular NK400, maybe others are better, but it’s staggering how much better new CFMOTO are, the quality is great, brakes feel better than z400, it’s nimble and rapid, power delivery is flat and available from the bottom, I bought z400 for my girlfriend coz of the seat hight, I would say if you can’t ride at all z400 is still the safest bike, but nk overall feels better to me, what do you think?
@@eddywave3315it should be better. They come up with reason for the weight of old 400 like the stability on expressway against wind and getting use to the weight for upgrading if the rider wanna go for 600 plus cc. Because we have a stupid law that only 400cc above can use it and they ignore that the Z400 only little bit weight more than a 250cc Bajaj and the 400cc Bajaj is heavier like 20kg than Z400 and it is a single cylinder.
@@eddywave3315to be clear expressway on the Philippines allowed only 400cc above for motorcycles. Does China have some similar rule on that?
@@ElCachorro97 in China all the motorcycles aren’t permitted to be ridden on the expressway/highway, so the legal top speed is no more then 60 km/h. This is why I prefer light bikes over heavy ones
@@ElCachorro97 btw I’ve never ridden Bajaj, how is it? Is it better then Cfmoto NK400?
Hi, does it has cruise control?
Hi, no it doesn’t, non of NK lineup has cruise control as far as I recall
Please do a comparison video with its rivals ❤
This one is on my list🤜🫷probably with Kawasaki z400 first
Maybe no one asked you before, but why is your nickame dizimini? dizi means something in turkish, and I was wondering if you are related to turkey somehow. but from your accent i can say, you got nothing related to turkey :) could you ellaborate on your nickname on yt?
great review btw. makes me wanna sell my nk250 and get the bigger brother right now.
Hey 👋) I’m not related to Turkey ( as far as I know). But now I’m dead curious what is the meaning of it in Turkish, can you tell me please) The nick name comes from the first two letters of my and my girlfriend’s first and second name, I like the way it sounds)
BTW I have a 2018 nk250 too) 22000 km on it, has problems but still pops some clutch wheelies on the first gear)
@@eddywave3315dizi means series. Like a regular show on tv or digital platforms.
yoooooooooooo new sub here, hoping to see more 450nk content.
Thanks man, this wasn’t my bike, but I’ll try to get it for a comparison with z400 or duke 390, Cfmoto 450 sr-s is coming next, hope you’ll like it
The tail light is much different. The 450 is a lot lighter. Smaller. I have ridden both back to back. Bought the 800 nk.
I love nk 800, my favorite Chinese bike so far, I rode it for a long time, was learning wheelies on it.
Nk 450 is the best small/middle displacement naked in my opinion, nk800 looks better for sure
34 "this bike"'s 😄 Not bad
The amount of focus one needs to accomplish this task is beyond my understanding 🎉🎉🎉 just admirable 😅
I wonder will they be in japan
Wow, now that’s a question) I don’t think these bikes would be popular there to say the least, taking that it would be even more expensive then local brands, and how much they like each other not likely( at least in near future) in my opinion
very good review
That’s awesome, makes me feel great, thanks a lot, will be releasing new videos soon, cheers
Not bad, Is it any good for a girl?
Depends on your hight and experience, if you’re too fresh and petite, maybe it could be a bit too much of a bike, anyway try it first ❤
Whats your height man?
@@lofi131xI’m 185/6.1 barefoot) and the shoes +2cm)
Next review 450sr S single swing arm
It’s on the way, but the next one is going to be Kove 450rr, and then the SR-S) Hope you will like these
they need to make a CL-X 450 ADV - I'll buy immediately
449cc engine is really good, taking that CFMOTO doesn’t need to make a new engine for CL-X 450 ADV it would be a wise move. I talk to the stuff from time to time, and they wore alluding to 1000cc super bike, new 500cc 4 cylinder engine, and 675cc 3 cylinder engine, didn’t tell me anything about CL-X, but I agree that it would be a great bike. Will make a review if it’s here)
@@eddywave3315 the 450cc *crossplane* is the perfect engine for a 'unicorn' Adventure \ Rally bike
What's your height?
185/6.1 barefoot +shoes 187, my girlfriend is 167 she can’t flatfoot it in case you’re interested
450 nk is 364 pounds. The 800 nk is 410 pounds. The 450 is much easier to maneuver. 450 is a great beginner bike. I think the top speed might be 105 mph (approx 175km)
I have a girlfriend, she’s 5.6 around 116 lb, she could ride both, but of course nk450 is way more approachable, but the seat is still a bit high, she’s a beginner and doesn’t feel comfortable if doesn’t flat foot it, so we bought her z400, but now she regrets, coz she fell in love with nk800😂
soon i have 1
What color do you get?
450 cc bike sounds like 150 cc bike. What a disaster
It sounds better then ktm 390 and Kawasaki 400s, it reminds me of a bee 🐝, buzzing around) I like it though
