I'm actually quite impressed at the CFMoto X700 - that is a sharp looking motorcycle! I would definitely love to ride it! The Ol' Man Ronin Giveaway appeared at 13:37 in the video - thanks for sharing! 🏍

Ok so I've had my CLX for a year now and have put some miles on it. Best bike I ever owned next to my Electra Glide ( 2 different styles I know, that's the point ) This 700 CLX is an amazing bike. I love it. Lots of power, Lots of function and it's just comfortable ( I am 6' 220lbs ) It's a phenomenal motorcycle for the price range and an amazing bike in general. Don't let the 700 fool you. She tries to lift the front tire on me all the time when I'm not even full throttle. I highly recommend this bike if you're after this style. No I am in no way affiliated with them I just love my toy. :D

Will the bike prevent the front tire from lifting all the way? Also, does it have ASR and if so, can you turn it off? Lastly, can you turn off the rear ABS? Would greatly appreciate your reply!

Hi Ronin, Great review! I've had my 700 CL-X Heritage for 2 months (as of tomorrow). I'd like to mention your "butt getting numb" is subjective. Not all/I don't have the same issue.

I grew up on Honda CB750s and the like after getting past the 250's lol. I bought a Benelli 302s to get my endorsement (finally :D ) and fell in love with it. I'm picking up my clx on friday and love the way it just takes me back. I love the modern/retro look and feel. FYI My first and primary bike is a Harley 03 100th anniversary FLHTC Electra Glide.

What a great looking thing - didn't know about them. Just bought a new Kawasaki to sit next to my Yamaha and Honda at home. Might have to do something alittle different next year 🤔

Love Granville! Looks like you had a great time on that bike minus the seat... Dura-coat at 13:27. 🍻

I found one for 4500 at a dealership 150 miles from me my local dealer has one for 6700 so would be worth the drive to go 4 hours one way. I'm looking to purchase one I'm 6,4 230 pounds

designed by Kiska in Austria, same firm that designs KTM. Also Zanella Ceccato is the brand in Argentina.

I'm hoping that the affordable bikes will bring more people into cycling.

Do you think the Scrambler version of this is coming to the US? I looked at one of these last weekend and was really impressed with it. Looked like you could even cruise down a dirt/gravel road with this no problem. Thanks for the great review.

The closest thing I have to cruise control is a cramp buster

I have a Zontes 125 and its been brill. Try and get your Hands on the Zontes GK 350 when its out👍

CFmoto is in business with Yamaha now . Great bike good company just got even better now .

How is the aftermarket support for these i dont care about accessories or look pretty parts i need replacement parts like brakes seals gaskets clutch packs things that make it ridable and reliable

I read these were designed by Austrian design company "Kiska" also responsible for KTM and Husqvarna bikes, did'nt think USA had any design input with these.

Well, even Harley have chinese parts. The electric chords are made in my country.

Here's my only issue at this time under this current political environment with Biden's new ban on products coming from China with the ban going into effect yesterday... there are more than likely going to be parts shortages... personally, I'd wait to see what the markets and the backlash that's going to come out of this.

The 450 NK has GPS built in so you can track it, get ride logs as well as speed notifications. It will also notify you if the bike is moved. Usually that's a 2-300 aftermarket part you have to add. It's awesome to see them incorporating tech like this.

Only me think about it looks like copy of Ducati monster

Dont know about a Chinese motorcycle? Parts, possible War, and translation? Hesitate to buy a rice burner but bought 9 BMW'S, same war, different cause

Here's my rational. NEARLY every motorcycle, car, well everything has ties to China. CFMoto builds engines for numerous companies including KTM. So I guess if your wanting to be 100% US or UK made, you literally have to build it yourself. Think iPhone.

Its a normal thing , something being "Made in China" is not at all what it used to mean like 10-15 years ago. Now its more like "Assembled in China" Its all about cheap workforce , also "WAR" thing is just highly unlikely , 2 mega powers going into war with each other last thing on your mind would be your bike trust me.
