Great video , something I did take notice to is what you stated about this having a Wet clutch . All years of the Uforce 500 have a dry clutch. A easy way to tell is by looking at the cvt cover , if it's plastic , it's Dry clutch. If it's cast aluminum , it's Wet clutch , they use the cast aluminum cvt cover on Wet clutch models because the primary bell/shaft sets over the Wet clutch and the primary shaft is balanced by that shaft setting inside a pocket on the cvt cover itself and there is a bearing in that pocket so that cvt cover supports the weight of the primary and why the Aluminum cvt cover is used over the plastic cover. It's easier for Cfmoto to just say to use Wet clutch oil across the Lineup because most people have no clue what the difference would be but the only current model that has to have Wet clutch oil is the Zforce 800. All other models are Dry clutch and have been since 2019 including the Cforce 800 xc . Hope that helps
Sir I have a 2017 cf Moto 500. Just bought it. I’m scared the guy took me for a ride. Can I ask you a ? It has a hard knock sound in it when it warms up. It only has 300 miles on it. Also the gear shift is so sloppy. It shows high when in neutral. Just seems loose. Is that the way they are. Thank you for showing me how to change the oil.
I wouldn't think it should have a knocking noise. That i would think might be part of a bigger problem. As to the shifting that is a known problem with them. Supposedly you can spend time to adjust it properly ( unlike they did at the factory) and it will work better than new!

Very good, to the point and not wordy.
Thank you!

Thanks. I have a Zforce500 that I need to do the break in oil change on.
Good luck bud!
Did you ever figure out the clunking noise?
Yep. I sold it hahaha! I was convinced after digging into it further. I it was just the way the cheap clutch engaged.
