2024 Cfmoto Cforce 600 review. Gold or Garbage?

[@1114rome]

I have a 2023 cfmoto 600 & let me tell you it's all about the rider, I ride with all brands, and I'm all factory right now, and go everywhere they go, and sometimes show them how it's done

[@rzl07375]

Very good review, as a CForce 600 owner I agree with everything you put as a negative and positive, except maybe the lack of fit and finish compared to other brands. I feel like the fit and finish is very good but that's just me. It's a price point machine and what I did was buy one because it had the features like eps , standard winch, led lights etc for thousands less. Im not ashamed to admit right now I can't afford a 10 thousand dollar atv.

[@AppalachianMountainRiders]

I should have been more specific on the fit and finish as it does come out as sounding like it’s not good when it is…lol. The fit and finish is actually better then my can am😂 it’s more the quality of material used then actually fit and finish. The materials used feel cheaper and “lighter weight” than the more expensive brands if I can put it that way.

[@thegunshowshow]

Just got a 2024 Cforce 600 Touring - $3-4k less than other brands with less features - and three year warranty - good bike since Saturday so far!

[@flipflop8989]

Yea I was just looking at a 24 grizzly and it’s 12 grand just saw this for 6500

[@billtucker9018]

I have the 2021 600 and love it, has never let me down, gets really good gas mileage, i have pulled cars out of the mud and the winch works great. no complaints.

[@chucknoris406]

If you're looking for one hell of a good work or hunting machine, this is by far the best bang for your buck. It will still make a good trail and mud riding atv if you put a little money into clutch kits and tires. I use my RzR for trail riding and my 23' CForce 500 as my hunting rig. Power steering, winch, usb and 12v plugs. And, it's about 2k cheaper than any other brand that doesn't have the same accessories.

[@yorkwilkerson4376]

I love my '22 Cforce 600 and it has been good machine so far.

[@bradjon7231]

I purchased a 2024 600. Have had it for 3 weeks now. I have 2 complaints about it but overall, i luv it. Complaint #1, the exaust is directed at the ground, makes dust kick up all the time. Complaint #2, i putchased the skid plates, i dont care that they are plastic but i dont like that branches always get snagged and stick in them.

[@Figuereditout]

Best review and test I’ve seen on here by far!!! Went and bought one.

[@AppalachianMountainRiders]

Thank you! There are a lot of reviews of the 600 at this point so that means a lot! Enjoy your cforce!

[@useryggfdcc]

Bought my first ATV CForce 600 2up Touring 3 weeks ago, still very happy with it . Only problem so far, the diff lock switch is stuck, won't select diff lock . No worries, warranty will fix it. This is my hunting ATV , super cool machine.

[@Cforce625EST]

213 hours of enjoyment with my 2022 600 already.

[@andrewbaum5698]

I'm with you. I love my Kodiak 700 base model but I need EPS now that I have shoulder ussues. I can't afford a new Yamaha at the current prices so this machane maybe the way to go. I have watched many reviews over the years and the CFMOTO has come a long way.

[@rzl07375]

My CForce has been solid for me. One thing I will say is if you value performance , factor in the cost of a clutch kit ahead of time. He did mention in the video a lack of performance, and a lot of it is in the clutching. I can describe the stock clutching as "dull". A primary spring and weights, and especially the secondary helix will add a good amount over stock.

[@sheldonwalden9784]

My friend has a cforce 800 and his parents have a uforce 1000. They love both of them. Are affordable compared to the rest of the market and have been great so far. they have had them for a year or so now and no problems.

[@bluegasgarage]

I removed my rear sway bar and now have a much smoother/softer ride. Rear is now true independent suspension.

[@hrmacdonald4471]

Really nice review. I'm looking for a mid sized atv for hauling a atv trailer (or maybe just a bit bigger) on our property & clearing piles of brush for a burn pile, etc. In the winter I want to use it to plow our driveway (1300ft)...we actually have a neighbor with a tractor & snowblower who plows our driveway, but sometimes there's not enough snow for him to clear out driveway but too much snow for our cars to get out. I thought the CF 600 with a plow might fit the bill for these jobs. Love to hear your opinion. Thanks.

[@AppalachianMountainRiders]

It would work great for that. And for the price you’d have plenty of money left for a nice plow set up or cart!

[@bigjay6743]

Have a 2021 cfMoto 600 with over 3000 miles haven't had any problems 3xcept for the winch solenoid.

[@Peeter-z7o]

4000 on my 22 600, just did the valve adjustment, slightly tight intake ones. Overall great machine.

[@rumman39]

Just breaking a cf moto 600 touring in I'm a new rider and has way more power then I need ! love the standard options for a Newbie like me > I'm loving it

[@thegunshowshow]

Got mine Saturday , I'm very pleased.

[@ToddKrueger-nt5me]

I put in a clutch kit an cut out the air filter cover silencer tube. It's a total different machine now and way more power. Remember it's a heavy machine, i now hit 64 @ top speed

[@Zukrider13]

I have both of the 2023 models. CF moto 500 & 600. The 600 is definitely more powerful, it’s quicker, & faster overall. Just stabbing the throttle it’ll wheelie in High range. It even beats the XMR 700 to 50 mph in drag races. XMR is limited to 65 & 600 is limited at 63 mph. The 500 rides better, has better travel numbers, it’s even smoother. It’s not $1000 more improvement over the 500 IMO. Both have been excellent overall. The 500 Cforce is faster than the 2013 Polaris sportsman 500 HO in a drag race.

[@davidhelmer9516]

Great information. Thanks! I've been researching the CF's for awhile and close to pulling the trigger on a 1000 Touring. So my question is have you had any issues? Specially with belt slipping after water or mud riding. Recently seen a vid were some riders were going do so water n mudd running but no sooner did the CF enter the mudd, His belt was severely slipping. Just appeared to Me that the water entered the case rather quickly which shocked me.

[@AppalachianMountainRiders]

I didn’t mention it in the video but I couldn’t get this cforce 600 over 55. I caulked it up to being brand new with under 50miles on it. Glad to hear top speed is at least around 60! The XMR 700 is geared lower so it makes sense the 600 beat it. My outlander pro 700 walked the cforce during the little drag races we did while I had it but again, the cforce was far from broken in yet…lol.

[@thegunshowshow]

Bought a 2024 Cforce 600 Touring Saturday. Goes 63 on pavement (stopped looking down at that point) and rips there not sure what you mean on speed haha. I test drove everything in the 8k-11k range. I didn't see glaring differences in speed, comfort or features

[@thegunshowshow]

Also a lot of reviewers mention the brake thing - y'all use front brakes lol??

[@WBOS72]

Great video Jason. I love your honest review of it. And your gorgeous property too.

[@ToddKrueger-nt5me]

With the engine braking you are actually suppose 2 tap the thumb throttle lever a few times when going down a hill

[@mikegunn3152]

Buy a Can Am 1000 or polaris 1000. Or you can get both the Cfmoto 1000 and a 600 for the same price. Think about that 🤔

[@MisterWangDang]

IM THINKING ABOUT BUYING ONE OF THESE OR THE HD7 WHICH WOULD YOU SAY GO WITH

[@AppalachianMountainRiders]

HD7 over the cforce 600 for sure. Now if you were looking at the cforce 800 or thousand…that would be a harder choice. I’m editing my review of the cforce 1000 now so that video will be up soon!

[@EwenRoberts-o8o]

Thanks for sharing the video of the CForce 600 with us.

[@Wildbear28]

2025 Cf1000 touring...absolutely love it!! 🙌🤟👌💪👍🫡

[@AppalachianMountainRiders]

Working on my review of that very atv now!

[@markflaugh2293]

Nice honest review. I think they have a place in the market and the tighter money gets the more of an audience they will have. They seemed to improve the brand lately and i think they will continue to improve but the price will creep along with.

[@mattneily5507]

Not to keep beating the horse dead, definitely looking forward to the Outlander comparison video, but if you could get your hands on an Argo Xplorer XR700 & do like a "battle of the budget big singles" I think that would be super cool, as it seems there's very little media on the Argo bikes, we have a local argo dealer 10 mins from me and I will say their 700 model looks damn good, it's a rebranded Kymco MXU700. I've been contemplating selling my mint 2004 Sportsman 400 for a down payment on one of those. The Cforce 600 has always been a sticking point in the Cforce lineup as a whole to me. In my opinion it shouldn't be offered in the bigger chassis, but in the smaller chassis, in which it would directly compete better with your Outlander, Polaris 570, etc.Currently as it stands they offer the Cforce 400, 500, 400 Touring - wouldn't it make more sense to offer a bare bones 500 as " the farm bike" option, then offer a fully loaded 500 & 600 in the small chassis, with the 600cc engine being the option for the small touring chassis as well. They then could take the 400cc powerplant which has proven to work great, build a sport quad around it & sell it brand new for what you could buy a TRX on market place for. Then take their 800/1000, make them the only big chassis models available, but both in single seat & touring configurations, also sell "the overland" edition as a performance package, not a whole seperate model. Out of the full array of quads CFMoto offer, I feel like the only 2 worth pulling the trigger on would either be the 500 if you want a a single seater, or the 800xc if you want a touring. In both instances there's no reason to buy the 600 over the 500, and there's really no reason to buy the 1000 over the 800. The 600 offers almost same HP numbers as the 500 in a way bigger frame, while the 500 boasts the same suspension numbers the 600 has, and is a much lighter, smaller, tighter and nimble frame. the 1000 is hardly anymore powerful than the 800 and they're literally the exact same bike. I think CFMoto have certainly become the dominant value brand but just seem to be in their own way with their offerings on the table, what point is there in offering 7 models of atv if only 2 are truly worth the bang for your buck. Now with Argo now trying to move into the budget atv segment, a company that has a massive reputation for building machines that can literally go anywhere, I think it's going to make CFmoto make some moves. Also with Argos reputation & their current rebranding of ATVS, I couldn't imagine they would risk their rep on some POS. That's the end of my rant, for now at least. Love your channel & the direction you've taken man, you've done great & continue to be one of my favorite KZbinrs for ATV related discussions.

[@AppalachianMountainRiders]

I would love to get behind the bars of an Argo but there are no dealers even remotely close that sells them. I think that’s a big reason you don’t see much about them here in the states because the dealer network for them is lacking. I agree with you 100% about cfmoto having too many options for quads. The 500 and the 1000 are the best out of them all and really all they need to offer. We have some new Gen3 cforce 1000’s at work waiting to be assembled and I can’t wait to check them out!

[@cvseniorful]

Where are your springs set? If they are down the whole way and it is still rough, then that is a problem.

[@AppalachianMountainRiders]

I rode it around from the lowest to highest. Lowest being the softest setting was the best riding by far but still compared to other machine made it ride like a brick…lol. It is a budget machine with budget quality shocks so it’s expected.

[@cvseniorful]

@@AppalachianMountainRiders I fgiured as much. I would guess they use the same spring and shock combo on their heavier / bigger machines. Doing so would lower their production costs with minimal sacrifice. Since you have access to be able to look, I would be curious to look at the larger machines. It is obvious that you can't totally tell by just looking. But, if they look the same, for the same year, there is a possibility that they are the same. The clutch vibration and turning radius, well those are entirely different beasts.

[@DM-tf6mk]

I have a 500 I picked up last year and picking up a 600 touring tomorrow. Wanted the new 800 touring but decided to go cheaper as in the end I would probably never use the 800's full power and capabilities.

[@1kukini]

I have to agree with your ergo assessment of the 600. I bought the Cforce 500 over the 600 last year for that very reason. I'm 6' and the 500 just had a better over feel to me overall. A person can't go wrong with either one.

[@AppalachianMountainRiders]

Same here. I like the 500 over the 600 for seat position and ergonomics!

[@rzl07375]

@@AppalachianMountainRiders I'll third that, if Im buying a one seater and not the touring model 600, I'd buy the 500 over the 600.

[@Alex420DT]

They also have nice 1 year standard warranty.

[@jarredschatz7544]

I ride one of these for a little bit once and the first thought I had was the clutching is way too soft. Just my 2 Pennie’s. I think a clutch kit would wake up the cforce 600 drastically.

[@AppalachianMountainRiders]

100%! A clutch kit is one of the first go to mods owners do to them.

[@bryanbetty2270]

I’ve never owned an atv. Looking for one to drive around the pasture and yard. Pull a wagon around for chores and stuff. Would thus be a good 1st one?

[@AppalachianMountainRiders]

It’s definitely hard to beat for the price! From my short amount of time with it I was impressed and it should serve in the capacity you want very well.

[@chucknoris406]

Absolutely. That's all I use mine for and hunting. I was looking at marketplace and thinking about a nice used polaris when I found these brand new for the same price as a 3 year old used polaris/Honda or yamaha. I've owned it since January and I haven't regretted the buy since. However, after its warmed up, it can be a pain shifting through the gears but easily fixed with an adjustment

[@billfleming8281]

It sure is . All I do with my 2021 is household chores and winter plowing . The unit has been excellent

[@stmichale6192]

Looking for an Atv, have never owned one but a recent trip where I rented one made me fall in love instantly! Looking at this 600 in the touring model, but I also saw the 1000 in their website. I know that means a lot more power, but is it really needed? All I’m doing with it is hopefully hitting some popular trails, not using it for work or for hauling anything. Any input is much appreciated! Thanks

[@AppalachianMountainRiders]

The best thing about the 1000 isnt just the power but it has a lot more features too. And the thing I like most about the 1000 is it actually turns! That was my biggest let down with the 600 is the absolutely awful turning radius. One thing to add is the 600 touring is even longer and heavier then the 600 I reviewed so it’s turning radius is going to be worse yet and the heavier chassis is going to make it feel even more sluggish. Actually sounds like the 800 touring might be a good choice for you and a perfect compromise between the 600 and 1000!

[@ЕвгенийФетисов-ф6ш]

Это лучший обзор на весь интернет по данной модели, спасибо большое

[@jwyoungy]

Great unbiased video. I have a Cforce 1000 and although I do love my atv there are things that bug me. My 2022 for instance while crawling down a hill will disengage the clutch once you slow down which then sends you coasting freely down a steep hill. I think that's been fixed on the new Gen 3s though. I don't like how hard the air box is to access and put back on, again fixed on the new machines. But mostly the brutal turning radius haha. You are 100% correct, it sucks. I'm not sure if the new 1000 solves that or not. Anyway great video.

[@AppalachianMountainRiders]

I’ll have a Gen 3 1000 review coming soon. It will sill disengage the belt unless you have it active decent control on. With it on it keeps the belt engage. However with it on the machine will creep 3mph even when off the gas till you hit the brakes which is annoying…lol. Full review of it soon

[@MisterWangDang]

DOES THE SCREEN FLICKER LIKE THAT ALL THE TIME THAT WOULD BE A KILLER FOR ME IT WOULD DESTRACT ME SO MUCH ID FELL THE NEED TO FIX IT

Where can I get a cforce 600 locking gas cap ?

[@dwarf1977]

I thought the 24’s had large displays or are those only on the twin cylinder bikes?

The 800 and 1000’s get the big displays.

I have a 2022 800xc I drive the piss outta it. It has 3500 miles on it and I did nothing but changed the oils. I was wherey about the cf s when I bot it but not now. I have friends that run them too and there hasn't been anything between all of us. I'd by agen for shure.

[@chrislengyel6021]

I’m about to buy a 22 800xc the burnt orange. I’m just worried about the brand and turning radius and suspension on the bigger bike. I’m just a trail rider with land

[@mikemiller9346]

@chrislengyel6021 You do get used to the way it turns. It feels odd at first but trail rideing its not anything id worry about. The shocks on mine were a little stiff from factory but if you find that it rides ruff they're fully adjustable so if you softn them up it will ride a lot smoother. I had a canam outlander before I got this cf and I don't regret it at all. If you Do your regular maintenance on them and there just as good as any.

[@cliftonfreeman5481]

I have the same,I must have gotten a lemon. I'm 64 years old and don't run it hard at all. The warranty has expired and it's going to cost me over 2k off low trade in value.

[@curteaton]

I understand the price point, but I cling to my biases fiercely. I'm not ready to consider CFMoto yet. Its a me issue, I know.

[@AppalachianMountainRiders]

And that is 100% your right to do so if you feel so inclined! And keep in mind that in the end, I myself chose to get a Can-am over a cfmoto and I stand by that decision. More of that to come in a future video though…lol.

Garbage!!! CFMoto was junk a 6-8 years ago and came along way to be competitive which changed my mind the company. But trying to be loyal to the brand, I bought three over the years, with each one getting steadily worse. Tired of the notices from CF Moto, telling me that something needs some attention. Yes, they were all under warranty, and I took them in for repairs, but I shouldn't have to. I actually went to a dealer here in Michigan to take an Overland 1000 for a test ride, it would have been my 4th CF Moto product, I wasn't allowed to, because everyone of the four units on the lot had a recall on them, but the part needed to fix the issue would take 7-10 business days to reach the service department. This seems like a trend, so I've parked and tarped the 2024 UForce 1000 and went back to riding my 2019 Grizzly, which has never had an issue or a recall. So if anyone is looking for a 2024 Uforce 1000 all tricked out, I know where someone could get a screaming deal on one.

[@trailblazeratv6306]

I'd spend my money on Honda or Suzuki

[@ihatelols]

haha you think the 2024 600 is loud? :D My 2022 600 rattles a lot, they improved the noise quite a lot on the 2023-2024 models actually.
