I pulled the trigger and bought this cfm 450nk over the triumph and others.After watching so many reviews I told the shop to reduce the throttle slack before I collected it so thats sorted. the engine is so smooth and sounds great; hard to keep it under 4/6k rpm for running in period cos engine so lively. its light and can easily manouvre to avoid potholes. I rode it for 1 hour plus and no issues with the seat or my back (am 64) suspension isnt the best though. great through traffic and changing lanes between stationary cars. clutch light and reach adjustable, Gear box slick and a gentle flick from 1st to neutral. Loving this bike so far.

25,000 miles for valve check. Nice recommendation that sells the bike, as a mechanic there is no way I would go that distance without valve check. No problem checking (and adjusting) my RE 650 engine every 3 to 5 k miles in less than an hour. Easy and gives peace of mind all is right.

Marc, I recently did my second oil change on the 450nk at just over 3,100 miles. The first oil change was at 700 miles. Manufacturers tend to use a lighter weight oil for the initial break-in period. I used a standard 10W-40 for the first oil change. It is not the full spec recommended. But it likely also helped break-in both the engine and transmission. On my second oil change I used the full spec 10W-40 made for four stroke motorcycles. It's almost twice as expensive but it seems to have made a real difference in the smoothness of the transmission and shifting. Where as, the shifts were just a bit firm for the first 3,000 miles. They are now buttery smooth with the full spec oil. At the right revs you don't even need full clutch. They just slip into place very fast... almost quick shifter fast. My conclusion is that the higher spec oil is more for the transmission wear and tear rather than the engine itself. The downshifting is where the biggest improvement is observed. The transmission at first didn't like a whole lot of downshifting at higher speeds and revs. But now it's like it doesn't complain at all. It just slides into place at most any gear, at most any speed, or revs. Better than Honda gold standard, in my opinion. Gas mileage is not that impressive. 50-65 US gallons. That's the same as the 800nk. Maybe it needs a tune...🤔 Gord

​@@markpulling12 Thanks Mark... Break-in is really the same as 'wear-in'... but without damage. Then, any further accelerated wear-in past around 3,000 needs to be mitigated with the full spec oil at 3,000 mile intervals... imo. I'm very pleased with the results. The way the onboard system measures fuel consumption remains a mystery to me. It seems to be all over the place, except on long distance highways. I've even looked at the instant fuel economy and it too is all over the place... not necessarily corresponding to throttle management. There may be a delay in calculating. But most cars don't do that. Basically 60-65 is what you get on the highway. If you set the throttle with a good throttle lock and don't manipulate it for grades... you could probably get close to 70 mpg. Which is ok... that's a 259 range. But here's the issue with that. They set up the fuel gauge to read empty based upon 3 gallons. That leaves the remaining 0.7 gallon as reserve. That's about 45 miles of reserve. Consequently, you're always filling up the tank. In the city with only around 50 mpg and the low fuel warning set at 3/4 empty, means you filling up around every 112 miles. The good part is it costs less than $3 to top it off here in DFW. Still, I would like to see 65-70 mpg fuel economy, combined.😊 Gord

Nice informative review. Thanks. I like that little flourish on the front mudguard. Its the little things that all add up to make a nice looking bike. Seems like very good option for UK roads and cities especially. Nice and light and got just enough of that "aggressive" styling for newer/younger riders who have to wait a bit before getting that Brutale RR thats been on their wishlist for years.

The Chinese brands are definitely coming....I have to say though that I'm not understanding the 3k oil change yet they're checking the valves at 25k whereas Honda Cb500 is 8k oil change and 16k valves?....also cheap tyres fitted as standard to Cf Moto whereas Honda are fitting Michelin Road 5s to the 500x.....270 degree crank/sound is better than the 500x 180....I own a 2018 500x so I know they're reliable but the exhaust note isn't as good as the 270 degree crank sound. As an aside I bought a n Adv350 and took consideration from your review and am very happy with it...just can't let go of my uber reliable 500x yet 😂...thanks for the review and your opinions.

Just bought a 450 NK. It is a HOOT to ride! The handling, the power, the sound, the headlights, the fit and finish, the technology in it... Everything is perfect to the t! I'm still breaking it in so I'm not riding the shit out of it, but the power is so down low in the rev range that you still leave all the cars behind you. 😁 I've had a Ninja 300 and a Yamaha XJ6 before this and I still have a Duke 125. They cannot compare to the NK, especially the Duke 125 and the Ninja 300. 😂 The XJ6 was a very good motorcycle as well but the 220 kg of weight made it a bit heavy vs the NK's 180 kg of weight. 😊 The pillion seat of the NK is HORRIBLE though. My girl's ass is pounded after a ride, no pun intended of course. 😂 They need to revise this ASAP or give us an option to buy an aftermarket, better pillion seat. Last but not least, the seating position of the rider is a bit agressive. You are not sitting up straight like with a KTM Duke for example. It isn't uncomfortable though, but something to keep in mind. It's a bit like the seating position of MT 07, which my dad has and I also test rode quite extensively. In fact this bike is like a baby MT 07.

They'll do it soon enough. Who knows when. But ktm and yamaha both joint ventures with cfmoto and are slowly incorporating the same tech. It will probably happen once cdmoto is more respected. Its probably a fair game tactic to curb conflict of interest. As yamaha has an dvangage on brand name alone.

Thanks Mark... Interesting low mid range bike. But here's the thing. They are perfect for what they were designed for. People will love them so much they will want to do some touring on them. But that's the problem. Once you weigh down the bike with gear it starts losing its character in the ride. These are meant to be enjoyed just as they are on local rides out in the country and around town. If you want to tour with some character, you need to be in the upper mid range with a 700-750 engine. That would still give you some nice punch while still weighted down some. But this also depends upon the manufacturer. I'm not a big fan of Honda because they tend to tune their engines down rather than up. The TransAlp is ok but not really that inspiring weighed down some... imo. Gord

Mark, I checked around and the earlier reviews on this bike, written from an article published by journalist, who indicated that he only got around 43 mpg. He admitted that his female associate, who didn't try pushing this bike to is limits all the time and was much smaller and lighter... was getting around 63 mph. So I would imagine this bike at highway speeds with a light rider and unladen could expect around 65-70 mpg on the highway. Gord

The ADV version will be interesting, going head to head with the Honda NX500 on price, performance and features.

Looks like a fun bike, Mark. I wonder if CFMoto's use of the 450 engine is the reason why KTM canned the 450 Duke? 🤔

I think the Honda CB500 Hornet will do everything the CFMOTO 450 NK will do with ease and has the benefit of better brakes (twin discs), quality forks and rear suspension, sharper looks, nicer display and it’s a Honda with all the back up of a major brand. We all know that the residuals of the CFMOTO will be nowhere that of the Honda in a couple of years, so could be fool’s economy. I’m sure that NK 450 is a reasonable machine, but to make it a viable proposition it have to be considerably cheaper than the main stream bikes.

Agreed 💯....on all counts The one winning feature of the cfmoto is that it has 270 crank Which makes it fantastic to ride Cheers mark

This engine is the best proof, that you can have great engine sound even with Euro 5, most manufacturers are just too lazy it seems. I just dislike some design choices of the 450NK.

Cant love the looks for me. I hate all this black and Matt. I am from an era of chrome and all these modern bikes are not as pretty to me. Undeniable package though if you like this look. Engine sounds great. CF Moto as a world player sell millions of bikes for any of those doubters on Chinese manu. I don’t think it’s that well priced though? Same as honda 500? I would never buy a new motorcycle or car. The hit is horrendous. Superb review as always. Much prefer this to an RE anything. Wouldn’t put my money here but fantastic to hear reviews
