What should I try next? LET ME KNOW!
You should try out some aprilias!
Triumph Speed Triple . . . and the rest of the Triumph lineup.
@@ChaseJasperDown absolutely!
CFMoto 800
Given your reaction, I recommend trying Kawasaki Z650 & Z650RS. The ergos on them are pretty nice tbh.
last year my wife decided to she wanted to learn how to ride bikes. she ordered a honda navi, so i told her i would get a mini moto to ride with her. Was looking for a grom or z125, at the time none were in any dealers and a long wait to get one. The last dealer we checked had the cfmoto bikes in stock . We went with a papio . Was very hesitant and it actually turned out to be a great bike. Fast forward to this spring she learned how to use clutch and she is now in the process of getting a 650nk.
That’s awesome! Love hearing great experiences with them.
Had my cfmoto 450 for about a month love everything about it
More comfortable to me than a ninja 400 hands down
Really enjoyed this video! I like the time spent to see the shop and see what bikes they had to offer!
Funny I’m running into this video! Cause I actually bought my CF MOTO 450SS at that exact store! shout out to Aubrey she’s very professional, for the ppl that’s looking for an affordable motorcycle and don’t wanna break the bank please don’t sleep on the cf motors! They’re great value!
Aubrey is awesome! So cool you got your bike there. How are you liking it??
@@MotoBlonde the bike is great! I’m loving it! The bike turns heads everywhere I go! Compared to the ninja 400 you get way more features, CF MOTO really did a great job on that bike!
thank you for uploading a video on the 650NK 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Cool never heard of them . Looks and sound good . Screen look awesome I like the tech sttuff has .
cfmoto bikes looks and feels decent, I have a friend who's a long term user if cfmoto bikes, but if they're to compete against Japanese bikes, they'll probably end up like a 'glock killer' that never kills the glock on the pistol market
Most all your so called Japanese bikes have been made in China the last 30 years.
I think your wrong about it not killing the Japanese version you get so much more value in the cfmoto bikes
The new 450ss kills its competitors in sound and performance. Yet packs way more technology into their TFT dash and standard options are insane.
Okay so zx4rr 10k bike weighs 414lbs 50hp (in USA) 75 (unlocked)
Cf 450ss 370lbs (45lb lighter) 50hp can probably drop a bit more weight give it 10-15 more hp with a full exhaust and tune. Cost is 5500 dollars msrp otd probably 6500...
Honestly looks better as well and comes in more color options. Even the regular ninja 400 costs more.
All cf needs to do is come out with a 75hp inline 4 for 6500msrp. In the 450ss chassis and it's wraps. You get way more as well with the cf moto
@@ronburgundy4375Seen quite a few people weigh their 450SS and it comes up a lot higher. I loved my cfmoto (650NK) but that thing was way heavier than the claimed weight. I think they’re listing their dry weight and wet weights and are somehow not getting in trouble for it lmao
Funny, I come from huge powerful bikes, but wanted to feel the turns in the mountains, but not a lot of power... The 300SS is a treat, and the 450ss is just perfect!!
But yeah, always listen to your heart and what ya need from a bike...
Safe riding
I am abroad in the Philippines and have the 400 NK Black with Neon Green decals, beautiful bike. It has Bocshe fuel injection ,dual overhead cams JJaun brakes that is now owned by Brembo, JJaun braided brake lines which are top of the line. These bikes come with so many good quality goodies and the price is unbeatable for what your getting. At around 5000 to 6000 rpm the bike comes alive and the power comes on. The NK is more for longer rides would would say. I'm looking to get the 800 when it arrives here.
Thanks for the introduction to CF Moto Heather and Anthony, I had never heard of them before. I looked them up here in 🇨🇦 and there is a dealer in the city closest to me… so I’m going to drop in and take a look! The price is right, I don’t assume they will be that reasonable in a few years once they get established.
Pete
That's so awesome! Definitely let me know what you think!
Very interesting, thanks for the intro and the details. Plus, glad you had more foot on the 650...lol.
More foot!
I'm returning to riding after a long long time. Loving the reviews and style of presentation.
I kind of have the opposite trouble finding a comfortable fit. 6'2" and build of a stick insect. You reminded me I hated the more aggressive position I see on sports bikes. Thanks and good luck with your search I'll be watching.
Appreciate it! Good luck to you too!
450SS is recommended. If someone is considering 650NK, don’t buy it for the time being, because there is a better 450NK, which has made great progress.
I was just reading about the 450 - looks awesome!
Why is it "better"?
@@MrR4ge89 Better product line, relatively better product quality control. And the 0-100KM acceleration of 450NK is enough for most people.
I'm trying to decide between these two too!
Just taught myself to use clutch last year on a Lifan kp mini 150…sold it over the summer and now I’m thinking of getting me a Cfmoto 450ss
The naked bike for sure!! But I’d wait for the 800 🤙🏼🔥
I can’t wait to see that one!
CF Moto sounds amazing. Great tech for such an affordable bike. The Papio looks like a riot to take around town.
I'm dying to take one of those out!
I can SEE the humidity in this video. That's remarkable.
Anyhow, I like them. Good for those guys. If I get a 2nd bike it'll be the cl-x sport, I reckon.
I hope this channel blows up. Your vids are awesome and I like you and your husband(?). You guys seem really cool.
which one feels faster and which one feels smoother gearing? is it really noticeable in terms of performance
6:11 I’m 6 minutes in, and this is the longest cfmoto ad I’ve ever seen 😂
Got myself a 450ss last weekend, so glad I went with this over a ninja 400. You just can’t beat what u get for the price. Brembos? Check. Digital dash with nav and Bluetooth? Check. A app that can track the bike/monitor its stats? Check out
I'd like to see you try the 450NK which is the naked version of the SS...also the 800NK which is the bigboy of their nakeds
Thanks for the info guys...
For me 650 is better when going out for some long rides and the pillion is more comfortable than the 450 😊
Cfmoto has been building engines for KTM for awhile now. They engine in the ibex800 is the exact same engine as the Ktm 790.
Love the 450 NK and thinking about doing a cross country on mine.
I miss 98° 😔😭. I can't wait to get my CFmoto 450SS 💪😈🤤I don't even know how to ride, but this seems like the perfect bike 🥰 I might wait for the upcoming 500SR/SS.
There's also a 500 cc inline 4 that is coming from CFMoto. Might be worth considering.
@@bar9666 I heard, so I'm holding out to see if it makes it state side. 🥰💪
Thanks for posting this. You said you were 5'1". Are both your feet able to comfortably touch the ground on this bike in stock form (meaning not lowered)? I'm buying the 450ss for my wife, who is 5'2", for her birthday and don't know if I need to lower it or not. Thank you!
I think you look better on the 650. I have the 800 naked. Love it.
If I could get the NK650 with the spoke wheels from their ADV bike, TFT display and Brembos from the SS I'd be a happy boy.
I've noticed that several dealers have gotten hung with the 2022 model 650 and have dropped the price to 3999 so for the price of a Honda grom you get a 650. The only thing that worries me is the valve clickety clack sound it makes.
Great video, I just bought the 450SS and the 650NK, love them both and 2 great bikes, definitely ride the 650NK in sport mode. No complaints on either and love them both. BTW my 650NK is the black and gray version of it.
Which one seems faster to you? Which one you enjoy more and why
I really like the 650NK, definitly faster and more comfortable, the 450SS is really sharp also and the display is really nice too. Like them both and got about 300 miles on each of them so far from July 5,23 that I owned them, the 450SS everyone comments on how much they like the looks of it and its fun to ride, either way their both nice bikes and no complaints on them. BTW I hear they are coming out with a 1000cc version now also.@@MrR4ge89
@@jer428 what would you recommend for city riding, 650nk or 450nk?
Today 4/29/24, I test rode a 2023 ADVentra 650. They are offering $1000 discount. So, $5,500 plus ttl…out the door price. Shad panniers are included. Nice bike for the money. The thing I didn’t like was the plastic fairings are thin and finish work is a cheaper material. In my opinion they aren’t the same quality as Yamaha or Honda. After 20 years of use they won’t hold up the same or command the same resale value. The value here is a lower entry price and 2 year warranty.
The bag video sent me back to this one.... How did I miss this one. Other than there was no notification on this vid!
I think that happened with this one - I dont think it got shown to many people for some reason - silly algorithm 😬
Actually some good looking bikes, the first one style wise reminded me of a Honda CBR RR
They are really good looking! Really impressed with them.
I’ve been thinking about the 650 just to have as a second bike and also to rent out.
that "pshh huh , aint no way " in the beginning with the music sounded like the intro to a song haha
Haha!
I'd be tempted to take the crossplane engine one, or wait for the 450NK, bc I think I had enough of 180° powerplants.. I also did my A(unlimited) licence on a 180° 650cc, but there are always surprises.
The 650 180° has to be revved WAY higher to feel the power vs the linear power axis of the 450 crossplane, that's why I'm a *huge* CP fan.
I'm waiting for the 450NK
I'd take the 450SS because when the 450NK arrives -- riders will JUMP on the 450SS to buy it from ya so switching to the 450NK should be a breeze
was this after I saw you guys test riding the IBEX, or the same day? I am trying to catch up on watching my channels....haven't been on for a while.....LOL. Town Line is a great place to do business with....would love to buy an IBEX, but my budget is more on the Adventura end....not sure i can bring myself to sell my Royal Enfield Himalayan.....I may also check out the new Super Meteor 650 Royal Enfield just released.....I am back and forth between staying along the adventure bike path or back to a cruiser ....which CF Moto doesn't offer as of yet.....leaning heavier toward adventure....
It was a few weeks later! My GoPro lost half the footage the day you were there 🙄 hoping to get back soon - I can’t wait to see the 800nk!
The question really is the resale value. Used ones seem to be up for sale for quite a long time from what I can see.
You did an awesome job! I have a request for you. Review a Rocket 3 R or GT. Would love to see that. The R has miss so probably better for you. I think you will want one for sure and you can touch just fine on it. Lol. Hope you do, be safe guys.
I'll keep an eye out!
Cool 😎 I live in NYC.
I've owned 2 of these bikes. The 300nk and I just recently got the 650nk. The mode button does nothing. It just changes the screen up. They have been tests done by other youtubers an it literally does nothing performance wise
Beautiful Dormansville NY
Got a new CF Moto dealership opening up in a nearby city (about 90km or 56 miles). Seriously considering the 650 NK. It would be serious overkill on the Philippine roads (no expressways here on Mindanao). But it would be a damn site more comfortable than the R3 I currently use for long rides, and could probably replace the 150cc Sniper that I use for city riding too.
That sounds perfect for you!
if you're in the PH, check out the 450NK. it's just the naked version of the 450SS. good stuff for city riding because it's very lightweight.
pretty sure it's already available in the PH. it's not in my country yet in europe :(
There's a new CFMOTO dealership just opened in Cagayan De Oro. Next time I'm there, I will try and call in, and see what they have. @@donderstorm1845
Nice looking bikes, and they sound good too! 🙂
Loved them!
Com-pa-ra-ble (comparable) able to be likened to another, similar. You should have tried the 700clx sport. 78 horse power.
I need to get a location in georgia
I do like that 450!!! Good video
Me too!! Thank you!!
girl your bicep/triceps are badass!
They would be is she dropped the bike!
Easily if the 450SS is bulletproof reliable and with it's looks, it'll be the best beginner sportbike. Legit fender eliminator, aftermarket exhaust and Rizoma stealth mirrors and it'll be perfect.
For sure!
If like me you like it stock. Why change perfection?
@@JessicaSimonson1976 I always modify my bikes. I think one of the ugliest things is that awful tail put on every bike. So fender eliminator and I always go for a aftermarket exhaust as you can save a ton of weight over the restricted stock exhaust, then ditch the stock mirrors as their overly heavy and I've become used to shoulder checks so usually don't have mirrors. That weight saving makes the bike much more flickable and responsive, which improves the ride be it city riding or technical mountain twisty riding.
@@Frank_Torre the mirrors integrate front turn signals in them to put them at approaching traffic level. Plus factory exhaust isn't that restricted.....designed to work with bike. Most aftermarket exhaust sound and look like crap cheaply made. Really 56.00 for a slip on?
@@JessicaSimonson1976 You can relocate the turn signals. As for the stock exhaust you can easily save 10+ lbs by switching to a aftermarket exhaust and yes if you buy a cheap exhaust it's gonna sound like crap. Which is why you can't go wrong with either Yoshimura, SC Project or Akrapovic. And yes stock exhausts are restrictive as they set to meet emissions standards.
you should get both, i mean duh! 😂 CF moto eh ? dealer in N Ga need to check out ! fun scoots! i like em all !
Obviously! 🤣🤪
Holy cow..., never heard of CF Moto until now. Went on-line after watching this , and what d'ya know..., there is a CF dealership in the next village. Now i'm curious, going in for a nose around tomorrow. BTW, I live in Switzerland.
Here's a news shock for you, if Harley's are your base line, then almost every other mc brand will provide you more bang for the bucks...😂😂😂
I would love to ride the IBEX and Advantura. They're both even higher tho
I really want to try them too! We have been contemplating adventure bikes too!
I don’t think it’s more so they’re confident in their brand/bikes it’s more so people are more likely to drop/crash a sport bike because they wanna do the most and if you’re new to the motorcycle world forget about it be happy if they let you sit on the bike with it turned on 🤣 taking my msf course this weekend and picking up a 450SS as my 1st bike in 2wks super excited 🤩
That's awesome, congrats!!
You should ride the 650 nk again in sports mode probably be a different experience lot more enjoyable
I did - definitely a difference!
You know what I think? I want go start test riding more bikes now 😁
Be careful, you might end up taking one home 😳 🤣
😂, I hope not, I have 3 bikes already
Try the CFMOTO 700 CLX Sport. Great looking bike.
Definitely a cool bike!
I think you should try to find a used Honda 919 to rent or try for a day. Just a thought though. Good vid
Thank you!
SNAP! Same dilemma...
I own this 450SS and confirm it handles beautifully
Awesome to hear from an owner!
@@MotoBlonde I got mine to 95 mph on freeway to get away from semi trucks.....definitely had more to give. Plus many people under estimate a motorcycle by cc thinking it not powerful 449cc parallel twin with 270 crank will pull away from Honda cbr500r quickly....plus has Ninja 400 beat hands down.
@@JessicaSimonson1976 I believe it! I would definitely love to spend more time with one and see what it can do!
@@MotoBlonde I had a bird bounce off my helmet at 72 mph today made my head jerk back. But bike is so responsive to your movements.
Ouch!
Finally I can compare height. Your 5’1 and Can tiptoe I’m 5’7 I should be able to flat foot
Oh I'm sure!
I'm 5' 8" and I easily flat foot the 450ss
Mt 650 please 🙏
I don't know, on paper it seems like the 450nk might be more fun to ride. Torquer
Seat height is going to be crucial for you.
You talked to a dealer and got hustled hard!!!! Lmao
Both bikes are made for guys with bigger feet. A
650 SS? Yess! I hope.
You look natural on it.
450 all the way
Feels like danger ahead? Why not.get it then.
Def the 650NK way more comfortable
Sorry Ant, but listen to your lady..., she knows how to say it the right way.
It's a word from the english language and I am English. So well said Heather.
Find yoursel a 5th Gen Honda VFR and see what you think.
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
CRMoto for the win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
I think if you want a second bike, you should get a Pan America. ,
I would love to ride a Pan Am one day!
Does all of that data that CF Moto "tech" collect 4 "U" go straight 2 "CHI-NA"?
Short answer no
@@JessicaSimonson1976 I'm a little more complicated than a short answer.
I'm more concerned with all the data that our own government-FBI, CIA collect on all of us.
Had to laugh at the tracking discussion. Of course, it's China. No thanks!
Able to compare =comparable 😂
Comparable rhymes with Dependable. Soft on the -a-
Honestly I'm saying paid j.s I hope not
Are CF Moto leading the way here for the Chinese?
This certainly looks like a good example as to how much energie the Chinese are putting into catching up with the rest of the world!
Both ways to say comparable are correct, don't be a backseat TH-camr 💀 great video tho I just got a 450SS it's pretty dope
Awesome, congrats!
@@MotoBlonde it's faster when you add a full exhaust and change the air filter. Waiting for the flash to come to a Shop to dyno it and flash it but can't find any yet besides in Philippines
Triumph should be your next bike.
Youre in the wrong mode thats why it was slow derr!!!
😅I realized that after the ride that I forgot to switch it to sport mode 🤦♀️ looks like I’ll just have to ride it again 😎
Also, since your so short, you can get a tank bag and lean on your chest and take some weight off.
Ah yes The CF Moto Data collection bike. I was super excited about the 450SS until i did my own research on the bike and the company. "Make them an offer they cant refuse" Just know when you purchase this bike with all the "Technology Advantages" your directly feeding real time information to the Chinese government. The only thing you need to ask yourself is why they would want that information and what they plan to do with it. Purchase one-dont purchase one, all the same in my book but people should really know what lays in the fine print of the terms and services of the Cf moto rider app that IS 1000% HAVE TO HAVE in order to use what "TECHNOLOGY ADVANTAGES" this bike supposedly has. Say what you want to me but at least be informed before you make an opinion about facts. They dont get enough credit, crafty people i tell you. Crafty....
Eww 😮
Just no to China bikes.
So you like Japanese built China bikes.
@@JessicaSimonson1976 What China owned company bikes are built in Japan?
@@JessicaSimonson1976 There is a huge difference between a japanese bike and a Chinese bike EVEN when of the japanese bike or even whole bike are made in China. The difference is AllOWABLE TOLERANCES. The Chinese are well known for making stuff completely out of spec for their own brands. The Japanese WILL NOT tolerate that.
So you are saying that you had more fun riding a Chinese bike that costs 1/5 what a Harley does? My Local Power Sports Dealer that started selling Chinese bikes during the Plandemic when all of the jap Brands and KTM's were sold out. They sell Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki , KTM & Indian for starters..
The Chinese bikes they were selling then looked like Honda Clones of air cooled dirt bikes.. they were white and orange ..
If you sold your Harley you would probably have enough cash to buy three Chinese bikes or more .
