I got this bike a couple of month ago. It gets better every day. Suspension is now super comfortable compared to the first days. The engine revs "lighter" and the feel of the throthle is now more precise. Proper break in is a must to get the full potential. I've had every engine size in my life, from 50cc to 1.300cc, and this bike's equilibrium between price, specs and weight is just perfect. I've also purchased a 450MT that will be delivered to me in the coming days. I hope the experience is a lit as with the CLC. Great review!

❤ belt final drives. Some reviewers noted the smooth drive of the clc, thanks to the belt final drive. Clean, quiet, maintenance free and smoothens power delivery . Its like cherry with sprinkles and whipped cream on a triple scoop ice cream, everything on this cf-moto is ahead, way ahead. FYI, Cf-moto even has TOTAL lubricants as an official lubricant . Thanks mark for a good review👍

Yesterday I did a test ride on the clc 450 and the mt 450. I have to say they both are amazing bikes. Even though they have the same engine, they do ride very differently. The clc 450 is noticably louder though. A very nice exhaust sound but very loud. Doesn't need an aftermarket exhaust imo 😁 I'm 6ft tall and fit perfectly on both. The mt 450 that comes with a windscreen does provide some protection of the wind in the tallest setting, but it hits to just about my collar bone. The Clc obviously has no wind protection but it has a charm on its own. 😄

Another great review Mark. I saw one a few weeks ago at Destination Christchurch. They look even better in the flesh. If I hadn't just got the clx700 adventure I'd be seriously considering one of these. The only concern I'd have is that the ignition key looks very exposed should you drop the bike, so I think crash bars would be a definite must have.

In my search for a small cruiser, I test drove the CLC, the 500 Rebel and the new Eliminator from Kawasaki and to be honest, the cheaper CF Moto had the best feel and quality impression. The Chinese motorcycles will put the established brands under enormous pressure, the days when we laughed at their motorcycles are over. I was able to ride a friend's RE Shotgun, a great motorcycle but with the high weight of 240kg, it's really too much for the engine.

@BigBlueW2 2 ай бұрын
Almost identical experience on my part, Eliminitor was lovely but felt more comfortable with CLC and tried the new Shotgun too. Amazing looking bike feels very traditional but too heavy for downtown ride with heavy traffic. My go to will be most likely CLC around at the end of this year.

Well done, I really enjoyed your review of the CFMoto 450 clc. At 62 years of age and only 5'5" I'm a bit of an "old short-arse" and in the market for a light cruiser. Was tossing up between Super Meteor, Eliminator or Vulcan, but until seeing a review of this relatively unknown bike down here in Oz is a bit of a revelation. Kind of fits the bill and will now have to check this CFMoto clc out. I reckon there's a mob across town that sells these bikes, ATV's and other stuff. Particularly like the 270-degree crank and belt drive. Why don't others do this more often? As some of the other posts indicated, am very wary of reliability, parts, supply and support, hence the usually Japanese solution. Mind you, I'm starting to get the impression that they're getting a touch too conservative. Might just have to "bite the bullet" and go Chinese (or Indian if RE) and that ride away price of this motorcycle is a big, big incentive. Anyway, thanks for the review, mate. Is much appreciated.

Well you certainly produced this review in a timely manner! Thoroughly enjoyed your take on what I am quite sure will be a decent selling machine. I suspect a lot of vertically challenged riders will find the 450CL-C of particular interest. I did struggle a bit with the 'sawn-off double-barreled shotgun exhaust' but not enough to put me off, especially as a lot of people replace the original exhausts anyway. At £5k it also represents a very affordable way into the 'bigger bike' market.

Ex Rebel 500 S owner here. Got my 450 clc 3 weeks ago, it's better than the rebel in every aspect except for fuel economy. It also comes with Traction Control.

One feature I like is the belt. Two features I don't like tho: ignition key placement seems very odd. Secondly: the indicators being brake lights aswell. The safety of those depends partly on other driver's familiarity with them. If not a rider could get rear ended before making a turn or something like that.

Cruiser type motorcycles are quite rare in Ireland and the UK so I think safety worries about the combined indicators and tail/stop light function are valid for now. I like the use of belts rather than chains for convenience sake and also because they are cleaner. If they work on big American vee twins, they will be fine on a modern engine.

Not a bike for me, much too low for my long legs, but one thing I like about the Chinese manufacturers is that they are not afraid to use belt drive. All other non-American manufacturers would rather walk barefoot over glowing coal than offer a bike with belt drive. Perhaps the Chinese can make them reconsider their obsession with those miserable chains.

The problem with all these bikes is future warranty issues and spare parts availability as these Chinese companies are not known for their aftermarket care, the old adage still holds, if it’s too good to be true it usually is….. but if you wanna take a gamble with your hard earned cash go for it….
