What do you think of the bike?? Wanna see more reviews? th-cam.com/play/PLC0dZgVosHtsxPvzkIDswjw2YjCVodY6Y.html
Rides and sounds like my Rebel 500.👍
Please check the MT 800 by cf moto.
I have the CLX Heritage. For the money, CF Moto bikes are incredible!
You can also pair your phone to the bike with the CF Moto app
It truly is amazing how awesome a Ninja 650 clone-ish engine can sound. Has a major adult man angry-growl sound to it, really am looking forward to this being my next bike. And it seems the '23 sounds better than the '22. Kind of weird...
just bought this bike a month ago and i regret it. It makes me feels like dont want to stay home and go out with him riding. Now i call it my son
I feel you bro.. winter is coming to which isnt going to make things more easy for you.
Ha u got me
too bad no winter in my country but i wish the heat could reduce a bit lol@@ClosestNearUtopia
Why you buy a Chinese bike man. Who you going to order parts from when it brakes down.
Ha u got me 2
First mods people do to their bike is bar end mirrors, tail tidy, end cans. All taken care of. Other manufacturers should take note.
Tail tidy is often a legal issue.
All are regulations
The end can is ugly tho
Can’t forget the steel braided lines!
@@TronciM better looking than most stock ones
I have this bike (2022) and its awesome! One note, be sure to remove the washer on the reverse gear sensor and put some lock tight on the nut before replacing. That'll keep the gear position indicator from acting up. Other than that, this is one of my favorite bikes that i have owned.
This just happened to me on the clx700 adventure I got in on february and it has around 500miles, do you have pictures or a link where to fix this or should I just take it to the cfmoto dealer and they would know?
@@GabTheAce The dealer would know and unfortunately, I can’t load any photos on here. If you look on the right hand side of your bike, remove the cover by the front sprocket and you should see a wire connected to another wire that leads to the computer of the bike. Disconnect this wire and you will see that the wire leads to a screwed in sensor. Use a socket wrench to remove the sensor and that is the reverse gear sensor. At the very end, you should be able to push down on the ball shaped node. That’s what relays to the computer what gear the bike is in based upon how deep it’s depressed and the electrical current it is receiving. On my model, it had a washer between the engine case and the screw itself that prevented the bike from getting a consistent signal in sixth. Removing that washer and applying lock tight to the threads before reinstalling alleviated this issue. If it’s still under warranty, take your bike to the shop and they’ll do it for you while you wait. It’s a quick fix.
Good info. I only have 320 mls on my 2022 700 clx. Do you know how to get rid of the Turn Signal Auto Cancel.
@@GG-xs8vt Its on a timer. You will most likely have to find the fuse that triggers the switch.
@@nickolaslewis4416 Checking in to it. Tks
I have the standard 700 CL-X model. Love it! Comfortable, nimble, powerful and cruise control. Shad makes brackets that fit the CL-X so you can add top cases and side cases if you want to tour.
I was looking for a used bike and came across this one in local showroom and bought it. Very happy with the bike. Just like he said don't get hung up on the brand. I'm sure every bikes parts are made in China.
They have a headquarters in Minneapolis & most parts are shared with either Kawasaki or KTM
You know where those fancy Brembos are made?
Had one. Great little bike. sharp handling, stupidly good breaks (fiddle suspension though), sport mode fun, good build quality all round. Sold this and another to commit to one bike
Which was that one bike?
@@tahahaider5836 a 2023 XSR900
Yep, like you said, its great for taller and bigger rider. I had a ninja 650 a few years ago as my first bike. The riding triangle is more cramped compared to clx700 but the pegs are not really tall. And that suspension is very easy to bottom out although preload was adjusted all the way.
This bike is my first new bike after taking my MSF course this year. So I guess it is literally a first bike for a big sized new rider. And just using the factory suspension setting i can ride pretty comfortable. This bike's ECU had 2 bumps, once after 5k and once after 7k, very interesting and exciting. Definitely love the Stylema brembo brakes and brembo pump, same caliper as Ducati panigale v4s 😂 also like the factory Maxxis tires.
I really want to have this in my garage, I'm really glad you finally reviewed it
I just got this today. This is my first sports bike. I have 2 cruisers and it's a big difference. Not just on how your body takes it's shape to the design of the bike, but you can also feel the difference on the engines. Unfortunately I'm short lol, but I was told you can lower this which is great. It's a different feel. I love all 3 of my bikes equally, I don't have a favorite 😌
I have the cfmoto 300nk. So far loving the bike
Same
For those that don't know, CF Moto got their "knowledge" of building bikes with KTM since 2011. They produce some of KTMs engines. These bikes are the kinds of formidable products China will be producing in the coming years. The question is, will there be a "passion" for the market and its customers? I think somehow CF Moto has that. They are producing very decent quality bikes, that look good and run good, but at crazy good prices too. The market needs to watch out for this brand IMHO!
Personally I think this is one of the absolutely coolest motorcycle designs I've seen in a few years, the big 4 from Japan have been resting on their laurels for awhile now, it's about time they got some competition to help them innovate better
You described the brake very well. I have a R1M and the brake of this bike is much better.
Honestly so good that for a beginner rider might be dangerous.
Brake is simply impressive!!
A small detail is the stickers on the wheels.
Terribly installed.
To say the bike is flawless, thats the only thing i have noticed.
I have the heritage 700 and have done about 5000km on it. I love it. I have a couple of small concerns about it but overall, bang for buck...You cant beat it
give it some more miles...and just what are the concerns you have?WE all would like to know...
When I took my MSF course a few weeks ago, I was like, "this place looks familiar". Turns out it's the same lot where you do your test rides from Del Amo lol
Alright 👍👍👍 CF Motos on fire, but it's like I always say those Chinese do make decent bikes or actually great bikes and at a good price. I am on my second Chinese bike and am looking forward to owning another if I can save some money. Good stuff all the way.
I have the 2022 clx 700 sport. Love the bike it is great. Put an exhaust and windscreen on it. It helps
What windscreen did you put on it?
I'd like the sport, but with the handle bars from the standard 700.
I just picked up the Heritage model with the Scrambler Pirelli MT60 tires and off road mode. I have a lot of rough and bumpy country backroads around me that the Heritage should excell at. Icing on the cake is that I got it from the dealer with 1 mile for $5k otd.
Sounds so good, looks pretty comfortable. I hope I can sit on one comfortably (5'4" 29" inseam)
If possible plz, inquire if 2023 model has had taller riser put on handle bars as compared to the 2022 model. Thanks. Great review.
if it was a crossplane, I would've bought it yesterday.. waiting for a test ride of the CFMOTO 45O NK or hope they'll do an ADV\RALLY 450
I have a CLX 700 ( Heritage ) And I love the hell out of it. It's an amazing motorcycle and a great experience. It's my other bike next to my Harley. Just can't beat having them both and the CLX is an excellent bike in it's class.
They sure have a good design team.
I have Nk250. got on it 19k mile. still rides
@@the.communist Yep. It's not broken and rides like new. (sorry English is not my main language)
Do you think those clip on clamps can be switched and inverted so the clips end up even lower?
Hi, I test rode the heritage version. I was wondering whether you had the same issue with vibrations? I felt the engine quite heavily through the foot pegs and that seemed to be annoying for longer rides. And for the sport version I heard if you lock the bars that you hand is caught between the bars and the tank, is that correct? Aside from these two issues I actually enjoyed the bike as well and for me it was a nicer experience than for example the MT-07.
I don't have any issue when I turn the handlebars all the way to left or right
Man I spotted one of these at a dealer nearby recently and it’s REALLY making me wanna buy it!! It’s a 2022, they’re wanting $5999 for it, but I haven’t inquired about the OTD price yet. Not bad for a ~700cc bike. I already have 2 bikes and my hubby & I have two matching Can-Ams…but that price tag is TEMPTING 😱
Been eyeing these for like a year and a half now and just couldn't bring myself to get one. To the lads in the comment section that own one, I wanna ask if these are reliable and if there is a solid aftermarket parts or just spare parts in general for em? Thanks in advance, Cheers!
On sale for 5499 at my local dealer, was going to pull the trigger but after all said and done, it was close to 8k OTD without any markups. Therefore it took it out of the bang for your buck value range for myself, now looking at a mt07 or mt09 which I am willing to pay extra for.
I Bought this as a beginner after MSF class. Love the Bike. Auto turn signal canceling is also standard.
Do you have any tips on the auto cancel feature for new riders?
what i do is hit it twice if going in a turning lane, once before lane change and once after to keep it on before the turn. Dont know if this could help but they do cancel out from the slightest lean.
@@marcustaylor3528 Thanks that does help.
Hi.... i'm a new biker and still surveying for a suitable naked bike for myself.
Would you suggest that NK650 or CLX700 over MT-07?
Would you suggest this Chinese bike or the Duke 200 I have the Duke now. You think this is better or keep my Duke ?
Can you ride two up on this at all? Doesn't look like it does it?
Hi you had a exercise that was a "fist" picture to do what was the cone spacing i actually cannot find the vid now either but thought it was good l/r practice plz?
My dealer has this lineup. Not bad have not ridden, should have went there other day. Every video i have watched i think exhaust sounds terrible though. I have had good luck w my Benelli. If i want to go back to gears should get the Leoncino. They have those, was what was going to get 5yrs ago before i decided didnt want to deal w gears and got the scooter. Benelli has 800cc variant of Leoncino and Trk just not here darn't.
This bike makes the new SV650 look like a cash grab
CF Moto really needs to build out its dealership network in Europe. Then they'd be a real player in the European market.
I dont know which part of europe are you from, but biggest european importer is JourneymanCZ and they have lots of orders, the 800MT was the most sold bike in czech republic last year if im correct, now for the new 450MT there is so many orders that they dont know if the will be able to keep up, but interesting is that the CLX700 sport is being discontinued for small to none number of orders.
@@pavelbarton4653 I'm from Germany. Definitely they have a weak dealership network here.
I have a new 2022 700 CLX. Is there a way to STOP the Turn Signal AUTO CANCEL.
Hi, would really like to see you test out Yamaha XSR900) thank you and good luck.
Yes!
Never knew it existed
Beautiful bike, and feels better than an MT-07 you say. What about the long term quality? What about maintenance? How can you recommend a bike by riding it for a few minutes, not knowing if it will have a lot of quality issues after a few months or years? How about valves changes-every 40,000 km for the MT-07 and every 10,000 for the RE Interceptor. That might tell something about the quality. How about the CFMoto? I would like to hear your thought (since I'm a newbie). Do you think it's possible to tell something the long term quality without riding the bike for an extended period of time? Thanks!
I have the same bike and i love it the breaks are amazing. He have power the MT07 is not a real Competition. But just one think is not good,... when you drive 1 houre my back kill me...
These bikes are insane value
180 degree crank is just such a let down for the soundtrack on this bike.
Very nice. Cheers
I feel like this the perfect bike to learn wheelies on.
Ive watched several review videos on these, and wonder the same thing each time. Is the display backlit? If so is it auto, or by switch? thanks!
instagram.com/motojitsuclub/
I just watched one of your cornering videos and you said you had ABS and traction off kinda made me feel like at least traction not that necessarily
I am about to buy my first bike , however i am new to this, if i have 2 options one with Traction and one without it. Should i get the one with traction cause it is safety control?
I am buying either gsxs750-1000, MT07-MT09
I tried smaller bikes but i am WAAY TOO giant and tall for them i tried these 4 and felt comfortable enough
I'd say ABS is the only "need" that a beginner should have. Traction control is kinda excessive in my opinion. I have always turned it off on the bike that I owned that had it. The only way I can see TC being a "need" is if you plan on buying a 100+ hp bike as your first motorcycle (not recommended).
Whata your height and weigjt I'm also looking to get my first bike.
Get ABS for sure and ignore the riders who tell you that you should learn without ABS. I've been riding my ABS bike for 7 years now and know that ABS has barely clicked in during my rides, even in the heavier use of the brakes. When you practice your emergency braking in a parking lot, you will know the difference between your braking and an activated ABS braking for you. There is a pulse you can feel when the ABS is activating. And no, this is not anecdotal, you can find information on what your brakes feel like with ABS activates. For this, you should practice emergency braking so you know the feeling of your ABS so you don't sht yourself when you are in a situation where you take a fist full of brakes and decide to let go since you're feeling a 'weird' sensation when braking.
Nice review.. i remember you test ride Suzuki Sv650 recently, which one would you choose?
My SV650 is 18 yo and still starts on the button. The engine (maybe not the electrical connectors!) is a peach and bulletproof (70k miles).
same engine actually!
@@GabTheAce No, it’s not. This engine is based off the Kawasaki ER6N that’s in the Ninja 650, Vulcan 650, etc. Bored and stroked for more CCs.
It's a fun bike.
Excellent review. Thank you. And you really seem to be enjoying yourself. Good stuff. If you have a chance, please test ride the CF Moto Papio 126. I would really like to hear your thoughts on it, too.
Do the gear changes work smoothly and precisely?
sure did seem like it, didn't feel any issues
instagram.com/motojitsuclub/
Cf Moto has some neat bikes. I have my eye on the NK 450. The 650 is very nice too, but for the same money you could get a Kawasaki z400.
I would argue that a bigger bike with more features that is the same price as a z400 offers you a good opportunity to try something new with minimal risk.
The fuel consumption is fairly high ..
And it’s higher than what’s shown on display.
Price????
Man I really like these bikes but the only thing that is holding me back is the potential long term reliability. Will it give me many years of reliable service?
That's the catch with all new things. You get a good deal in exchange for something that's unproven. Kind of like buying a new home in the early stages of a new housing community or investing in a brand new product. It's up to you if you feel comfortable with parting with your money for a product that's a great deal but is unproven. I did and I'm loving my decision so far. I have purchased parts and the rear pillion (I have the sport model) and it only took a week for the part to arrive. Whenever I take it in for routine maintenance, there hasn't been any issue for the shop to get what ever they order. Granted, I suppose the supply system will be put to the test the first time when someone significantly damages their bike that requires major repair. Given the level of support my local dealer has demonstrated so far, I assume that the repair time will be similar as any other brand. 🤷🏽♂
Well the engine is pretty much a Kawasaki 650 design so at least that's pretty proven, I'd try it just for fun.
@@c0dy1287 Good point
If it was a UJM I'd definitely buy it. Absolutely the café design I am looking for, it's perfect, for me. However, it's made in China, so, gonna have to take a pass. Too bad. Saw this, along with the 450ss in the showroom. Definitely has the looks & the quality components...but it's a Chinese product.
Used to be you had to NOT overrev a new engine... had to break it in. So, is that no longer needed to break in an engine?
Not really. Tolerances in production have mostly made it so you just ride it like you’ll ride it for the most part. Some companies like bmw have electronic limiters so you can’t go too crazy.
I would assume engines go on dyno before so they should be broken in already.
My manual says for my 2022 new 700 CLX. BREAK IN first 310 mls -4000 max rpm. 620 mls 6000 max rpm or less.
I was just looking at the 650 NK, but now.....😂
What do you think about the CF MOTO NK400 sir?:)
hello, greg doesn't read the comments anymore, mos likely if the review isn't on his channel he still hasn't tested it
Wala atang nk400 sa us bro..
@@mastergogoy6166 ohhhhh. Pero parang may nakita ako bro tignan mo dun sa dulo ng video nung nasa parking na sya uli, parang V2 na NK haha Ewan ko lang kung tama mata ko.
Honestly, what were your thoughts BEFORE riding it?
My local CF dealer does NOT sell CF motorcycles, only the 4-wheel CF stuff.
My last 4 recent purchases: '22 busa, 23 fat bob, 22 Speed Triple 1200 RR, 22 Tuono V4 Factory.
I'd buy that CF and ride the hell out of it!
Feels so bizarre seeing so little bike in front of you/the camera
Nice bike good seat, but i think my wife will disagree sitting on the back.
Ducati Duvahlie?? 🤣 0:58 WTF bro, c’mon.
Well that was a refreshing, scrupulous take on a completely unknown machine.
Kinda raw that this bike has these features and mine was probably twice this much. Cruise control??? Fuuuuuuu....
@@joek81981 I have one. It's just as nice/fun than the Ducati Monster 1100evo that I used to have.
Hey I’m about to buy a CFMoto 450ss and was wondering how good the Sportbike is reliability etc, the guys at the dealership told me to get it over the 2023 Yamaha R3 cause it’s so much better and I really like both bikes, I’m kinda stuck on what to do I need help!!!
They want me to pay $8200 for the 2023 CFMoto over the 2023 R3 Yamaha $6788
I’m a new rider also
I would not buy from that cfmoto dealer. They are charging either a markup or some other ridiculous fee to arrive at that price. The 450 is definitely more capable than an R3, but not worth overpaying.
@@beaulunawolf1198 it’s a local dealership I’m not too sure why they are charging that much either even tho the bike is currently at there store but I really appreciate you input and feed back 🤙🏽🙏🏽
MSRP is the same for both 450ss and R3, freight and setup fees should be similar. Try a different dealer if you have one nearby.
@@dcmphoto7437 I’m going to have to try Denver’s dealership
You'll be able to sell an r3 second hand. GL with chinesium.
A Premium machine at bargain basement pricing equates to unsurpassable value. CF moto is top tier in Chinese motorcycle manufacturing and has collabs with both European and Japanese manufacturers, which says a lot for the quality of the brand. They build engines for KTM and let's face it KTM is a premium brand with unquestionable performance and quality in motorsports. For the money you will be hard pressed to beat this machine unless you are buying used. It doesn't hurt that it is an attractive looking bike never mind all the premium performance parts that are on it.
I had the Adventura 650 it was the biggest POS ever. Replaced with a Vstrom 800DE
What kind of problems dis you have with it?
@@commanderstud2417 It cooked your crotch. Buffeting was bad and wind protection was not all that great. Very vibey .The tank fuel sensor was bad out of the factory waited 3.5 months for a part. Kick stand sensor went at 2500km. I think there was something else wrong because half the time the bike would fail to start in Gear with kick stand up and clutch it. Made it an outright dangerous thing if the bike stalled in an intersection. I teach MST and we stop and shut the bike down with kick stand down. Half the time bike just didn't start until put into neutral. The fueling was terrible, throttle was jerky as hell. The riding modes made no difference at all it just at more fuel. Mirrors sucked, the fairing were cheap and poor quality attached with double sided velcro and tape and had chunks of it files and drilled and forced to fit at the factory. Warranty is horrible 5 year or 10k km.. Seriously? I ended up trading it in and I am happy I got 5600 cdn for it, hell the RE Meteor had better trade in value. The bike was seriously sketchy at around 134kph. Worse bike I ever owned. Oh and the CFMoto app is seriously useless, Navigation would give you directions in inches, if it could even find your location it used some bizzare mapping system. It was like a really shity copy of the Versys 650.
I've heard that the app is trash but I haven't bothered to use it yet since my bike doesn't have the screen to project the GPS.
@@nickolaslewis4416 Honestly I just use my phone in a RAM mount. I don't care for all these integrations. I don't answer my phone while I ride nor do I can to fidget around with that shit. Look at Honda Africa twin the left controls is a giant thumb keypad.. The hell for. Focus on operating the bike not silly Infotainment horse crap.
@@Happypillz Good point about the Africa Twin lol. Too much tech definitely takes away from the spirit of riding.
I rode this bike it’s awesome
🏍🤘
Looks cool, you need to sit straight up. lol.
HOW BOUT THE ADVENTURE! comparative review between the 2!
Like the back. Don't like the front
It looks more like a Cafe Racer 😅
205 Kg for a 2 Cylinder engine of that size is too much in my opinion; compared to the 790 Duke, Hornet 750 or the MT 07.
instagram.com/motojitsuclub/
Most of the CF Motos, were based off Kawasaki
The chinese ducati scrambler lol
71 HP
KAWASAKI engine inside. Nice bro. Greetings from Poland.
Stroked Kawasaki engine!
Who cares about suspension adjustments? I don’t get why everyone thinks it’s so important? But I drive a Jeep wrangler so I’m use to bumps lol.
people who are new riders don't care about suspension adjustments
@@MotoJitsu I’m not new but I probably don’t ride as much as most because I’m lazy. I have a ninja 400 and it seems to be fine on ok roads. It just seems like motobloggers put ALOT of emphasis on suspension adjustments. Am I missing something? I know it’s super important on the track.
@@MotoJitsu I may be looking at the cf moto 450 this fall. Love the look of all their bikes. L
The pace you're riding, no need to care or worry about suspension. If you take more courses, learn to ride better, it'll become more relevant but at an easy pace, not doing a lot of twisty mountain roads, I wouldn't care either.
Hey when you going to teach me how to ride bro. I’m trying to pass my permit still lol can’t pass written
Is this a bike made in China? Reliability?
That's my concern. Especially if you plan to finance one. The gear sensor issue is a problem many people are having with this. It's not a huge deal, but unfortunately when it acts up it cancels out the cruise control.
At heart it's a Kawasaki 650 engine so I'd assume reliability should be up there
I was going to buy bur they wanna play games at del amo with the cost. But paying $1790 down payment then buy a helmet at 500. Yikes bro hit me up
[ Nice ] :)
Chinese vs Japanese hmmm
To be fair, many Japanese bikes aren't made in Japan anymore. The last one that I had (Yamaha) was made in Indonesia.
@@nickolaslewis4416you are correct, very few components are still MIJ. The manufacturing cost is very prohibitive.
Looks like a Vitpilen 701 rip-off.
That’s what I was thinking considering CF Moto owns 30-40% of KTM now
@@obenwahkenobib8899 They use the same design firm for their bikes.
@@obenwahkenobib8899 Ktm owns 49% of CFMOTO KTM R2R brand, whilst cfmoto owns 51%. So it's a bit different to that actually. It's a brand they use as a partnership to share platforms and production and stuff
Nothing bad to say? It's made in China...You know that will automatically be top on some people's negative list.
Not mine. I wanted to get this as my first bike. It was just almost double what I was willing to pay for my first ride.
One of the guys who works at my local Cycle Gear rides a CF Moto Adventura. The only complaint he has heard is that there is sometimes a delay getting parts. However, that is something that sometimes affects everything these days with supply chain issues. Other than that he hasn't had anything bad to say about his bike. They're new so the long term reliability hasn't been established which is the only drawback I've heard but is something any new manufacturer will encounter.
Look for a 2022 model. They are on sale right now for a limited time. I got mine for $5,999!
I'll look at these bikes in 5 years time or so
If owners are reporting that they are solid then they are a stonking buy.
The spec is just miles better than even the euro bikes in terms of suspension and tech (at the price)
Fingers crossed they hold up!
@@Surpriseify That’s a fair approach. My guess by then is that if they prove to be reliable, then the deal that makes them attractive now may no longer exist as their pricing will be more aligned with their competitors
@@Angel9932 wrong wrong wrong. They've been around for ages, I have no idea why people keep saying this - must be Americans. I've had a cfmoto here in aus since 2014, almost a decade!
Triiiiiiiiiiiident !!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
As an American, I cannot in, good conscience, support China. Sure, sometimes its unavoidable, but I do what I can.
That's illogical tbh. A vast majority of the electronics and appliances in your home is made in China not to mention that your favorite American automaker has signed agreements to supply them with parts for their vehicles. Our economies are interdependently interwoven and believe it or not, both counties need each other. Politics aside, the trade arrangements that exists is a direct result of capitalism and the greed of domestic manufacturers. Given this fact and the reality that most Americans have less "play" money than in years past, I don't fault ANYONE for getting the most bang for their buck. Besides, I can't imagine a world where America didn't have an issue with counties such as England, Germany, Japan, Italy, Korea, etc. These guys have always had the US' best interests in mind right?!?
@@nickolaslewis4416nailed it. Also if you're worried about Ethics, America isn't much better lol.
Yeah, but an MT-07 will last ten times longer than this thing. And be worth twice as much used.
Not true on the first part. The second, maybe
@@chrispekel5709 Search for high mileage CFMotos, almost no information.
WHY?If you realized the labor conditions in China,you'd get your money back.Sorry Moto...I like you and your videos...but advertizing CHINESE products is not for me.That money goes right back to the Chinese govt.Not the workers.Let's not forget...China gave us Covid and others.Purposely.
It's Chinese, with unproven reliability and parts availability. Stop trying to sell it! And you are being judgmental about your subscribers' brand loyalty; the same goes for potential subscribers. Not very smart!
A rando trash talker out of nowhere - thinks Motojitsu will listen to an idiot..not the brightest in the sea of rubbish yeah?
Why shouldn't he give his honest impressions of it?
no one is forcing you to buy their products or even watch this video...
@marcustaylor3528 They're probably an ignorant xenophobe who also believes that other brands make all their stuff in America or Japan... Oh how shocked they would be 😂
It is a company which used to make BMW one cylinder engines until BMW stopped selling them. They still make those engines for themselves, while the rest of the engines are based on Kawasaki engines. It is the best Chinese motorcycle company which is manufacturing motorcycles for a long time. I would not buy one because I just love Aprilia and Moto Guzzi but do not talk out of your ass about things you do not know anything about.
Even though they share the design with brand bikes, the savings come from inferior materials where they are not obvious, such as lower grade stainless screws than on the originals etc. Materials are everything.
