I bought my uforce 1000 from 3 seas last fall. They had the only one in the northeast
Yes that's true we don't get snow
It was a pleasure working with you Adam! Thanks for taking the time to come up and tour our dealership! Can't wait to help accessorize the UForce for your needs! Enjoy the ride, Jared
How much did it cost out the door
What a great machine. Ive heard of them but never new they had side by sides. Its always fun bringing a new toy home. Great video!
I've owned a lot of 4 wheelers and I bought CFMOTO 600 last year and I love it it's been a great bike so far it's been very reliable nothing has broken over 1000 miles already. It gets worked hard and has done everything I've asked of it and more. Getting a side by after the new year.
Nice looking machine Adam. Haters are gonna hate....most haters are misinformed about what they ride and where the parts come from that make it up. 4500 problem free miles is all that matters to me...never got that many miles out of any Polaris or BRP product I've ever owned w/o some type of failure.
Congratulations on the new purchase. I hope you have better luck than my father did. Pay attention at oil changes and have some replacement fuses available.
I guess everyone has their favorite ride. I have a 2016 Polaris 900 EPS Ranger. Love it. It’s an all around great unit, serving all of my work and trail riding needs here in the Northwoods of Wisconsin.
Your little man's reaction is everything 😊
Your son was really enjoying that ride. It was really good to see and hear his joy! The new side by side is a good addition to your family. Enjoy! Stay safe, stay healthy!
Good job on the purchase!
Nice video! I’m not sure how close you are to the dealership but I’m in Greenfield Township just off 86. I’ve been by the dealership several times and didn’t know they sold ATV’s. Nice video and I hope you have hours of worry free fun with your new purchase.
Great machine….bought a cfmoto 600 after watching your channel! Be sure to check the rear axle grease fittings if this has them. The 4wheelers are typically shipped completely dry, quick
Lube and ready to go!
Good to know just bought a 800 will be here in a week
Love the video. I have thought about upgrading myself but just can't seem to make the jump yet. I love your saying about being an accountant and that makes you inherently cheap. I am no accountant but you are not alone. it isn't how much you earn that makes you rich, it is how much you save. :-) Good looking machine. I can't wait to see how it looks all finished out with the remaining mods you ordered.
Stunning piece of machinery to add to your collection. Wishing you many happy, carefree and fun years of driving with it. Your a very lucky man
Congrats on new purchase!! How is the quality of this machine? How do it take going up and down hills? How is it on take off like do it jerks? Seriously leaning toward getting the uForce 1000
Didn't know you got a C600 also! Very cool. Remember to hit me up when you are ready for a clutch kit to accommodate the bigger tires you plan on getting! Nice vid
Clamp a knob onto the steering wheel, and you can turn it one-handed, or you'll bulb up your grip and arm(s) until you can.
You wont need turf mode when you have a limited slip diff, it wont tear up the grass and you dont need to hit a button, my 600 has that not sure about these 1000s but i think so.
Going from West to East to get to 3 Seas, I'm guessing you live fairly close to my neck of the woods. They are nearly a stones throw away. I'd like to hear updates on the machine to know how it holds up.
That CFMoto is looking sharp! Congrats! Just restored a Kubota RTV 900 I picked up at auction and absolutely love it. Enjoy the UTV!
I like your choice for a utv. Your Uforce 1000 looks great and will get the job done. I'm jealous though, now you have 2 cfmotos lol
How is the turning radius on this machine with power steering alot of them dont turn very sharp well just wondering about this one
Great video! But I won’t lie I had to like the video as soon as I seen how happy your son was in it with you
Hi Adam! Congrats on your side by side upgrade! Looks like a real step up from the Polaris and a lot cheaper too. I hope it serves you well. Thanks for sharing!
That thing looks awesome!
So exciting - new tool/toy!! 👍I love how mommy had her arm bracing her baby!! It's what mommies do! ❤️ God bless y'all! Congratulations & stay safe!! 👍
She sure is protective haha
@@HometownAcres A mommy's love! 😍
The rear diff is limited slip, it’s not fully locked. It will lock up if a tire is spinning in the rear. That’s why it doesn’t have turf mode.
I was wondering about the rear diff. Thanks.
So how many different one thousands are there to choose from like players does? So what’s the cost to have a winch roof glass windshield and a full-size doors
i have seen your dealers youtube videos quite a bit when i was researching side by sides to buy! From Canada lol. How do you like the cf moto after a year? Would you buy it again or go name brand?
Congrats! We own a zforce 500 trail and it's been amazing, this coming from a honda fan boy lol
Looks like a nice machine! I do like the factory mud guards - something I didn't get on my new Polaris 570. I looked at other brands too, but went with Polaris mostly for the smaller width in the bush with the 570 and I couldn't do without turf mode....Enjoy your new ride!
That’s sure nice country you live in. Good video on the cf moto. Looks like a solid machine. I’m a rancher and probably way cheaper then an accountant. Lol
Do they make a 50" version of this unit?
I got a Kubota last year and put a rear view mirror on it, vented front windshield, and got it with the better tires like you did and the front brush guard. We use the heck out of it and having the vented front window is really nice in the summer. It also has the adjustable suspension and have never changed it from the factory settings. Enjoy. Great video as always.
I just wonder how cfmoto will hold up over time. I have a 2012 sportsman 500 with just under 12km on it and every other day its needing parts. But i love the look of the cfmoto but they had a bad name and im hesitant to buy one
You mentioned that your C600 has a horn. I recently bought a new USA 2022 C600 and it no longer has a horn. The was a disappointment because my state requires a horn as one of the requirements to be street legal. I also had to add mirrors and a license plate light to be legal for a part street registration. The Canadian version has most if not all of this stuff included.
Congratulations on the new machine. I worked with a guy who owned CF Moto’s and always praised them. Your son looked like he was having the time of his life.
I didn’t think power steering was important on a 4 wheeler until I rode one all day. It does make a huge difference
Once ya try it you can’t buy one without it!
Congratulations on the new purchase! Looks like a quality machine! I hope you have many happy hours of fun and that it makes work around your property a whole lot easier!
I'd think long and hard about giving up a turf mode, locked rear-end turn harder and wider.........
Looks like a good upgrade!! Will you be putting a plow on this one also?? Stay safe you guys!!
Congratulations!! This is the exact model we are hoping to get for the farm soon! Also have been looking at the 6seat modelXL.
Another thought about this is if a manufacturer is paying their employees less than 10% than another manufacturer is paying their employees it should be pretty easy to offer more features for less money. Not a comparison between the quality of said goods, just a comparison of how some products may be priced lower than others. I have some Badland winches that do a great job at much lower prices than say, Warn. Just sayin'.
Polaris Junk, Can Am bit better but going downhill. This looks like a very nice looking unit Adam Congrats! (helmets) I have heard many negatives but also people who own and swear by them. I do have couple friends that do. I find the ride with my friend in his cf moto very smooth. Have owned Polaris unfortunately. Although I hear the 570 best machine Polaris ever built. I guess i should of bought that model. I am in wait and see for a bit until I see how my friend who just got the cf uforce 1000 side by side works out. I know much more money but hard to go wrong with the Honda Pioneer, or the Yamaha Wolverine Rmax. A friend of mine has had a pioneer and it is a 2015 and he works it hard on his property. Never a problem. Decisions Decisions!
7:02 There's no diff in the rear? I guess in the dirt and mud it doesn't matter or is good. But on pavement.... not so good.
EDIT!! I looked down the comments....
Thank you, Josh Sparkman for the info.
"The rear diff is limited slip, it’s not fully locked. It will lock up if a tire is spinning in the rear. That’s why it doesn’t have turf mode."
Can you do firewood splitting vids again
Guess it comes down to, "It's your money, buy what you want". I have been drive Polaris rigs for about 15 years and I am completely satisfied with them starting with two 500 Scramblers, a 800 SE RZR and now a XP1000. Never had utility side by side so can't give an opinion on one if them. It is a nice looking unit, hope it serves you well.
I've had 2 rangers for the last 10 years and I'm moving on. Weak frame and poor-quality parts have pushed me away. Axles rattle after 800 miles, drive shaft rattles after 1000 miles, bearings in the diff and trans go bad if you work around mud/water for extended periods of time. It's a shame, because functionality is great. Durability not so much.
@@tjspaddy too bad you had a bad experience. I had two Polaris Scrambler 500 quads for 5 years, never had any issues, had a Polaris 800 RZR also about 5 years, put over 3000 miles on it, no issues, didn't even change a belt. I own a 2018 XP1000 now, only have about 3000 miles on it. Did lose a belt once, play in the sand a lot and it seems to be hard on belts. Been in Arizona deserts, Utah and Idaho mountains and never failed to bring me back. Don't think I have just been lucky, think all mechanical things have problems sometimes, no matter who's name is on them. If you had problems can understand your frustration. Hope whatever you get next works out better for you.
@@christownsend7602 Good to hear your machine held up. I spend most of the time in Western NY and Ohio, a lot of snow/mud with my 16 900XP. I'm shocked your driveshaft isn't clanking around and your axles are still tight. My frame issues are from plowing. Most of us have Polaris and experience similar issues. Again, glad your machine is rocking and rolling. I'm moving to Honda or Can Am. Leaning towards Honda.
@@tjspaddy good luck this time around. Gotta go with what works for you.
Just bought a Polaris Ranger XP HD EPS 1000 and the colour is exactly the same as your new 1000. Couldn't get stock of the CFMoto in Australia, so went the Polaris. Also, the main reason for the Polaris purchase was the hill descent, I believe it was only model to have it in Australia. Congratulations on the purchase and enjoy the new setup.
Heck yea, good “review” drive. Most folks “review” they don’t even drive fast or anything.
where cfmoto is made?
I hope you have better luck than I did. Had a 2021 cf moto and went through a dealer buyback because it broke down before it’s first oil change. The dealership and the manufacture could not figure out what was wrong with it. They had it for nine months! Finally they purchased it back and we just kept the loaner they gave us which was a Can-Am. Far better machine!
Chicom junk! Sorta like the cheap Walmart. Chicom. Junk but here we go Americans will buy anything
Adam, you made a great choice. I’m a big fan of the CFMotos and you definitely get maximum value from them. I just couldn’t decide between an ATV or SxS, so I bought a friends 2004 Polaris ATV for $1,100 (only 620 miles) this summer until I decide. It’s a great quad and I’ll still keep it either way. Polaris has gone downhill in quality since then and they’re too expensive. CFMOTOS are the way to go 👌
Sure maximum value at the cost of sending your money to China instead of keeping your money in the U.S. to employ U.S. citizens. I would rather buy a product offered by an American Company and manufacture in Mexico or Brazil or even Malasia than give one more dollar to Chinese company.
China why
Sorry to say cfmoto is the bottom of the barrel brand polaris is twice as reliable than cfmoto buy a Honda and be happy I f$&@?d up and bought a cfmoto and had the worst experience of my life
Where are you getting information about cfmoto Your friend just made the dumbest decision a human can make he got rid of a Lamborghini and bought a huffy 😢. Sorry if I sounded negative I wasn’t trying to be rude but that blew my mind I bought on too and I regret it cfmoto is garbage at best. I am a daily rider so this is only based off experience not a opinion Good luck I pray it works out great for him
@@grast5150 Polaris an American company? Ever hear of Robin/Fuji Industries better known as ProStar the motors in most Polaris ATV's and SxS's. My Grandfather died in Pearl Harbor....and last time I checked a history book....it was not China that committed that dirty deed. Try doing some research on where 75% of Polaris's other parts are manufactured....I know where their EPS systems aren't made....and where the EPS system on my CFMOTO is made. It's supporting a Nexsteer workforce 90 miles south of me here in Michigan.
I'm looking at it ... and I'm not seeing a hard door on either side 😕. Cheaper or not , that's a compromise. I completely understand the need to save , I myself am a big fan of honda and their pioneer lineup . Do what you need to do . American products don't make it easy to stay American. Pretty much have to spend thousands more to keep American manufacturing afloat. 😢
Turf mode is the biggest weakness in the drivetrain of a ranger.
How much does it cost to enclose and buy the machine total?
Around 20k all said and done. I got a few extra accessories too such as a plow attachment.
Nice
actually your 2022 model has an open dif with an lsd. I have a 2022 in camo
Very good video, Adam.
We bought a kubota 1120 last year and love it
SMART CHOICE, CFMOTO IS A SUPERIOR MACHINE FOR LESS MONEY, I HAVE 2 OF THEM THEY NEVER BREAK,AND I GIVE THEM HELL
BEST MACHINE FOR THE MONEY
Not everything is covered 1 year on the warranty. Read it closely. Some things are good and something’s not so good.
Helmets?
Very cool. Any idea what the front axle weight rating is? I noticed there's a 2" receiver on the front. I use my loader all the time to move around trailers and such.
I want a bennche warrior 1000
My father law had bennche. I don’t think it was 1000 but it keep up with Rangers and Hondas. I want Uforce 1000 to work around farm and drive up few gravel roads at times.
I work at a Can-Am dealership which is the 2nd biggest in nation. We have C F Moto too. I can say CFMOTO is very well put together and all the fasteners are torqued to perfection without requirement to check except for lug nut torque. Can Ams are great but seems to be slapped together. Tip; when run in just swap all oils to Amsoil then u will really love it.
Great thing with CFMoto is the road legal ready liting with indicators which saves 12 hours wiring up a CanAm Defender if someone wants a road compliance machine for contracting on public works like utilities.
Nice trade up but should always keep in mind to go slower with young family on board, especially the terrain is rough and not tar surface. God bless and stay safe.
Nice machine, but for that kind of money I’d rather have a nice tractor or mini. $15,000-$20,000 down on a tractor or mini would go a long way. There’s nothing an ATV can/will do that a front end loader can’t do x10.
if you would have bought from Mainstreetcycle you would have gotten a 5 year warranty like canada has.
You probably know this, but be careful if you ever let a friend ride there or your riding together or whatever, that theres a pond on that hill… lol
No helmets???? WTF???? That kid is tiny.. What were you thinking???
Congrats on the upgrade. Looks like added fun and work for years to come. Cup holders are already filled. 🙂 . Appreciate the review.
Where is your seatbelt? 😉😉
I thought the same thing but try not to get preachy. Mom and son belted in but dad not… Adam - don’t forget that your son watches & will likely follow dad’s lead. More is caught than taught 😉.
My UTV will not go over 5mph without the seat belt on.
@@dennisdahm6846 what make/model do you have?
@@marcuswhite3628 I have a Hisun it had a Coleman sticker on it but then I found out that they just brand stickered it and it is made in Vietnam. The price is very reasonable and it also has pretty much all the extras on it. The only bad thing is you can't find any accessories for it.
@@dennisdahm6846 wow - I’m surprised a Vietnam product has such a strong safety concern. Good luck with it! If you have any idea that something needs replacement, you may want to order it well in advance regarding supply issues 😞.
It definitely seems like cf moto is becoming a strong alternative to the expensive polaris and canam atvs/Utvs
If I wasn’t so used to a foot shift on my Honda I’d probably move my way over to one of cf motos atvs
Should have bought a Honda
Why did you want to replace the Ranger? What sold you on the CFMoto? Why didn't you get the XL?
We have 2 2020 500s ATVs and a 2021 UForce 1000. We are very happy with them so far.
I KNOW EVERYONE HAS A PURPOSE BUT FOR 2 GRAND MORE I WOULD OF GOT THE CREW CAB
Congrats on the upgrade. Why not the XL with the growing family?
It would be like driving a school bus through the woods
Yes buy this so the CHICOMS can fly another balloon over and operate via hack/satellite. Get a kubota. It's all simple mechanical minimal electronics
I ordered the same machine and same color 8 months ago. Just got the call it came in yesterday! Let the fun begin. Congrats on urs
Hopefully the ECU is in. My machine was in about 2 weeks before the computer came in
The 1000 and 600 isn’t a 3 person vehicle and doesn’t have a seatbelt for that. You might want to consider that before posting while under way with a kid in the middle and a arm across the waist. 🤔
I had my motorcycle for less than a year and someone pulled out in front of me and I ended up losing my right leg. Thank God you only got a few scratches.
I’m sorry to hear that Brian. That’s awful
That's a good looking machine! Power steering too. We've got a Hisun dealer close by and they are also a TYM and Kioti dealer. I like the Hisun Sector 1000. Their machines are street legal plus comes with 4500 lb winch and windshield and roof. But cargo bed rated for 1000 lbs, towing 2000 lbs. Very similar in price also.There engines are v-twins in the 1000, 750 and down are single cylinder. Locking diff front and rear. I figured if the dealer carries Kioti and TYM tractors the Hisun must be pretty good.
Combat Wounded Vietnam Veteran here. I would buy a UTV made in Vietnam before I bought a Chicom. CF Moto. I don’t hate the Chinese people but their one world government wannabe is a different story.
I just bought a Polaris Northstar and the dealer also sells CF Moto. They knew not to even show me them.
You were up in my neck of the woods! I have 40 acres near Clymer, near Peek'n Peak. Haven't gotten out to 3 Seas yet, but will be stopping in soon.
To each their own but will never touch a CFMOTO for a multitude of reasons. Have only purchased Polaris and CanAm UTV’s and for very good reasons. I don’t really have to explain the reasons why as they speak for themselves. If someone asks me to explain, they will get an earful why not to purchase this Chinese brand.
Polaris parts are made in ChiNa...say it like Trump now...ChiNa😂
looks fun, happy for you.
Congrats, seems like a nice unit. I've had my UTV for years and never once washed it, it's a work vehicle so I don't really care to waste the water on it. However, that one is pretty so and I suspect you are a clean vehicle kind of guy so something tells me it won't stay dirty for too long.
Are CFMotos manufactured in China?
yes
I've been abusing my Uforce 1000 for about a year now at high altitude. Only maintenance I did was one oil change, constantly punishing it in the Colorado Rockies at full throttle for extended periods of time. I broke the parking gear and the front of the skid plate off. Thermostat housing were leaky from new, be careful with the hood mounting tabs. I recommend the uforce 1000, you cannot beat it's value and practicality.
Thank you for bringing practical experience and support here. I know Adam has thick skin with negative comments but this Momma doesn’t like it. I agree with your assessment that American brands use a lot of China parts then call it an American product. Adam does his homework before putting money down. I hope his CFMoto is as reliable as yours.
Again - Thanks!!!
Good morning Adam, nice ride! Your not cheap just thrifty! Enjoy your videos.
You're going to regret this downgrade.... I hope they paid you to change.
Please note how the clutch engagement is today vs a month from now. A 3 month old CF will feel like a 6 year old polaris. Remember this description rattling old goat wagon. Enjoy changing the oil, and at the first sign of oil leaks get it back to the dealer while in warranty. Out of warranty leaks requires engine removal and disassbly.
And note low speed enjoyably driving overheats the cheap clutch on these machines. They will warranty it for a bit and then explain how this is supposed to be driven in low in most instances. And low is not enjoyable to drive in.
Not just that who will want to buy a say 5 yo. Used CF Moto.
The only good warranty....is the one never having a claim. Funny....after 4500 headache free miles....my cfmoto has been 100% the complete opposite of everything you stated in your post.
@@jimmydesperado2936 man... I'm happy for you. That's unheard of. Keep the updates coming.
Good going Adam, makes all the sense in the world. Buying local is always good, but it also has to make financial sense.
buying local is good. Buying Chinese isn't!
rolling stop lol
Looking forward to the review of the 1000. Sweet looking ride! 👍🏼🇨🇦🇺🇸🪵
Adam, how do you pay for all these tools and home addon's
Nice bike Adam! My buddy is a CF Moto dealer near Corning/Elmira NY. They’re extremely popular machines. Can’t wait to see it in the vids. I’ve also purchased machines from Jared at 3 Seas Rec in the past. Great guy to deal with. Enjoy
Nice ride! Can you register those for the road?
Speaking of the big hill, how's the pond refill going? And I see the dogs wandering around so I assume the invisible fence training went well?
The invisible fence has been wonderful for his hound dog. I have been there babysitting before it was installed. I had a panic event when Sadie got out and was down by the road. She follows her nose and doesn’t want to come back! This gives her a big perimeter and she abides by the boundary.
@@AdamsMom921 Good. I was wondering if she would just blow through the fence when she got excited.
Congratulations on your new sxs , envious of you I always wanted one. Hope you have great luck with it. Enjoy.
Mama bear got the belt arm around her cub! Congrats on the new ride dude!
Congratulations on your new side by side!! Little men was having good fun!! You need to install some handles for the wife!!
Did you keep the snow plow?? If not will you be getting one for the cf?
