Thank you for your review. I bought the chinchilla 500 last august 16, 2024 and it's a great bike. It has a good handling, so nimble. I have ridden it 850kilometers in my odo as of now. Great bike!
Yes youre absolutely right. I love the Chinchilla 450. Ergonomics, seating position,comfort and handling are really good. Though I just rode it on a small test ride area. I knew it has a milder tuning than the rather sporty Napoleonbob. I like Chinchilla better.
Thank you for your feedback! If I’m being honest, I prefer the look of Napoleon over Chinchilla, but Chinchilla is a more rational choice! Both bikes are cool! Bottom end torque is great)
Hi there, I,v already owned it 1 month and I have to agree with you talking about comfort sitting. (I,m 95kg rider). No issues with bad road. Front brake is not so sharp but I,m used to use both brakes (front and brake simultinously), even tested emergency braking. one thing i have to highlight is georgeous exhaust sound. (YT records are silly bad) Enjoy the ride - Bendas
I love this bike. I'm gonna get this by august since this will only be available by august 2024 in the philippines. This is just launced a couple of days here in the Philippines. I've been waiting for this since last year ...❤❤❤
@@eddywave3315sir, good evening. I have now my chinchilla and it's the 500cc launched in the Philippines last april 27, 2024. I love it...❤❤❤ And it's really a nice bike. I'm proud owning it and have no regrets...👍👍👍
Thanks for a great review, man! In your opinion, which one is better at all-chinchilla 450, 450clc or cu525? I want to buy one of them, but i dont have a possibility to look em in a real life. If you had a similar choise, what would you take? And what do the other subscribers think about it? Cheers from Russia)
CU525 угловатый немного, дизайн специфический. Седло наклонено вперед и сьезжаешь к баку. По лошадям примерно такой же, но мотор некрасивый и глушители уродские. А еще бесят эти некрасивые дуги безопасности и выступающий радиатор по бокам. Звук выхлопа хороший. CLC450 тестил, вроде норм, но выглядит значительно дешевле. Когда сел на шиншиллу 500, все сомнения остались позади. Он наиболее подходит моим запросам, и под рост 185, тоже.. Заказал его в белом цвете. На след неделе забираю. Если прислушаешься, потом спасибо не забудь сказать.
Очень интересно смотреть про этот мотоцикл. Хотелось бы посмотреть его с разных ракурсов. Вид с заднего крыла, с боку как он едет. Он сам по себе очень красивый, это больше всего и привлекает в нем. Спасибо))
Thank you! Unfortunately it wasn’t my bike, the backrest is available on Taobao here in China, but I don’t know where to get it from in other countries
Dizimini, please, i want from you a honest opinion about reliability between Chinchilla 500 and CL-C 450. Which one will you chose between those two? Thanks! In Romania the price is similar.
Honestly, I would get CLC450, it’s lighter and faster, has the same teck, and brakes are better! Benda on the other hand has a V twin which suits the class more, has very pleasant/responsive throttle which I like more, and sounds better in my opinion!
I am going to buy It here in Spain, I would like to find side bag brackets too but I dont know where I can do It. Can you tell me something about It? Thanks in advance
Actually its a collaboration of QJ and harley. QJ owns Keeway and keeway owns Benda so there you go its a collaboration between the two to produce the same vtwin classic in the asian market.
Hello friend, could you please send me photos of the seat outside the motorcycle, and if you have the measurements for reference, I think I found it on Amazon, the brand is GYMARK, there are three types, one is for Kawasaki Vulcan S 650 and the other for Indian bobber and the last one for Harley Davidson Softail. Thank you very much in advance, greetings from Mexico
I would pick clc450 just coz It’s more maneuverable and a bit faster and I hope more reliable , but honestly I think most cruiser lovers would prefer Benda
I would get Voge 525CU coz it felt faster, yet very comfortable, and the sound was great and angry, but I think clc 450 will be almost the same with more classic design! Benda gives you what any other bike doesn’t, the unique v twin, great sound, and it would be the closest thing to an authentic old school cruiser, I think if you love cruisers Benda is the best choice
For me it’s CLC450 because it’s lighter and a bit more rapid, but I’m not a big cruiser person, I think if you appreciate authentic cruisers you will enjoy Benda even more than CLC450
Could you please tell me which one would you choose? Benda darkflag, benda chinchilla 450 and cfmoto 450clc. in terms of reliability . Please help me to choose, i have to rely on professionals' advice, cause we dont have physical stores in my country only online ordering. Darkflag's one downside i guess its air suspension, if it breaks must be very difficult to repair.
Black Flag is the least reliable, the one I rode had a broken suspension in the first two months, and to fix it was 500$ or so, 450 chinchilla felt good to me, but if I must decide which one is the most reliable, I would choose clc450! CFmoto are quite reliable
I really love your videos man. And with that, I just purchased my own chinchilla. Anyway just a question, where did you purchase that backrest? is it possible if you could share it? Thanks!
Desde hace 4 meses que llegaron a México,la opcion seria para mi la Napoleon es una moto bonita y robusta que le hace competencia a la indian y a la Harley Davidson.
If money isn’t a problem, SRV 600 for sure!!! It’s better in every way, and it feels really light for its actual weight! It’s faster, smoother, and has more tech! But it’s also in a different league, and more expensive!
I didn’t measure CLC450’s 0-100 acceleration, but Rebel and Voge 525 were the fastest( less then 6 seconds with me riding) pretty sure CLC would not fall far behind, Chinchilla and Napoleon aren’t as fast, but they sound great
Many thanks, i was deciding which one im going to get, cus used rebels cost the same as brand new napoleon and clc, now im just going to pick which has bigger engine with better speed just in case an emergency xd
Looks really good. Thank you. Im 182cm so its nice. The design is awesome classic and somehow... The engine 😁And overall design, kind of little badass 😁🤘🏻Only one question. Do you know the fuel consumption? Napoleon its a bit extravagant for me. Same as Lfc700. They are great at all but not for my... Don't know? Feeling? Soul?😁450 Its exactly what I like. To compare nakeds. Cb650r by Honda - yes👍🏻KTMs, no... Yamaha, no. Kawasaki Z650 why not but better Z650RS 🙂Hope you know what I mean 😉Ride safe.
Thank you! The average gas consumption on this particular bike was 4.21 l per 100km! And recently it was lower then that, last 100 km is only 3.89 lpkm. I get your point! This bike felt different from other small to middle cc cruisers, and I liked it a lot! I think if you try it you would love it🤝
@@eddywave3315 First of all Im absolute begginner on the bikes. Last Autumn bought 125cc and learning how to ride. But Im thinking to go for something bit bigger. Need to do license for bikes 125cc/35kW 🙂And that bike looks great. Thank you for your review👍🏻Keep going that way 🤘🏻
@@jankohudy2290 actually I’m not that far from being a beginner as well) this is my first year riding in China) I think you can try Benda 450, it’s quite easy to ride, the only problem is the weight, clc450 from CFmoto will be a bit lighter, thus more suitable for a beginner
Can you comment more on reliability? Are there any more informations from chinese owners? The fact that a lot of them are to be sold doesnt need to mean anything. Benda is most likely QJ-motor subsidiary (as at some markets ie Thailand, similar 300cc version of this bike name is a Keeway Benda). QJ-motor is a big motorcycle manufacturer in China and making reliable machines. IE im now riding rented Benelli TRK 251 which is from 2019, having 50K km on clock and still in very good shape, no issues (Benelli is a QJ-motor too). Making negative comments on reliability is way to brave at this point, until you have any solid info from owners.
I saw some video from guy reviewing after using 7month, 2 years and 3 years. Used almost everyday and going some short distance touring several times too. He said everything fine after 3 years, with just normal parts need to be replaced such as clutch and Belt which is normal considering he use it daily. It's a keeway Benda brand but different bike though
The reason I say it’s not reliable is coz I talk to many people around (owners included!) and many people say it has many problems, I didn’t ride much, for me bike felt good, if I have more info I’ll come back to you
@@eddywave3315 Maybe because they have done midification on the bike. I have two bikes, one Honda and other is Yamaha. Done a lot of Midification on the honda. Change the rims for wider tire and some engine modification too and the bike become less and less reliable with each mod. On the Yamaha I didn't do anything significant just paint job and GPS holder and such. Going over 5 years on daily now and still have no major problem except some worn moving parts that need to be replace from time to time suchs belt, oil and battery.
@@r2artCH I don’t think it’s about modification, it’s mostly strictly restricted here, I think the old models were much worse, the quality is getting better and better, but the guys I trust recommend CFmoto and Voge as the most reliable Chinese brands so far

Compering it to Black Flag 450 V4? Are they any differences in driving feeling? Accelaration?

Does the backrest optional when you buy it or is it aftermarket? It looks dope!
Aftermarket.

Benda Chinchilla 500 vs CF Moto cl-c 450?
I would pick clc450 just coz It’s more maneuverable and a bit faster and I hope more reliable , but honestly I think most cruiser lovers would prefer Benda
Great day! Which one will you choose? CLC 450, Benda Chinchilla or Voge cu 525? You tested them all,, which one is better in your experience?
