Can The CFMOTO UFORCE 1000 EPS XL Hold Its Own Against The Competition?

[@EastCoastATV]

Good video. I for one love storage space so I was impressed to see how many storage cubbies there are. The top speed was very impressive. Seriously, I didn't expect that.

[@johnnydangerously7186]

Owned a Uforce 1000 for 2 years. Zero issues and very happy with performance and quality.

Awesome! 👊💥

Owned a Uforce. Brakes are so poor, that I can‘t stop when i‘m fully loaded. Heat inside the cabine is so hot, that in the Summer time you can‘t use it

Finally a Dirt Trax test in real world conditions & speeds these machines are made for & used for 90% of the time & not the jumps & broadslides on wide open trails & backroads I see too often!

[@MiddlePark]

I've been beating my uforce 1000 like a red headed stepchild for about a year now here in the Rockies. I damaged the parking gear lock, had some coolant leaks, and toasted a belt while abusing it plowing packed snow for the 1st 30 miles on the odometer. My Uforce 1000 makes living out here possible year round. Can't get a better tool for the money.

Great video I'm really considering the uforce 600 for my property hopefully next year can pull the trigger on one. Also love all the people just bashing it ok we get it you can't stand the fact this is 5k + less then you paid for yours comes with more standard options and a 5 yr warranty thats a you issue. Don't be harping on dirt tracks this is their job to review all types of atv and sxs if your going to hate on cfmoto so much then why did you even watch the video

[@dirttraxtv]

Thanks for your support, Eric!! ✌️👊💥

[@kenp4464]

Nice vid and review. As a RMax owner, not my cup of tea, but neither is the RMax to some folks. Not a CFmoto fan but competition is good.

[@popper690]

Thanks for the review! You mentioned the ground clearance was not an issue. I've noticed many videos where people always seem to be putting bigger tires on and raising it, but it seems like a lot of those reviews are coming from places that sell mod kits so it makes sense to promote that. Your review is one of the few that mentions the clearance is a non issue. Segway's UTV P Crew is $3k more than the CF Moto but it does comes with aluminum doors and stock 30-in tires with 14' of ground clearance. I'm just wondering if the CF Moto stock with 11' of ground clearence (it may be 12' on the newer models?) is really capable off-road without bottoming out too much? Please do a review on the Segway P crew!🤠

[@PlaceOnTheHillProductions]

Great job on the video! Hard to argue the value when you consider the 5 year warranty and included roof, winch, turn signals, horn, 4 ways and LED lighting. I am waiting on the 3 seater which also includes doors.

Thanks Frank!!

Appreciate that! It's a decent machine. I really enjoyed the way it rode and its power package. In my opinion the positives greatly outweighed any negatives. 🤘

Mine is a beast . Had it for a few months now and hangs with all the other machines. May not be the fastest on tight trails with bumpy roads. But once again it's not a RZR. But for the price and what it came with it's done everything I needed to do

[@Merrillizer]

@@howdy4596 What if it's NOT a "beast"? What if it's REALLY just a total and complete rip-off, from engine to bumper? The CCP stole everything.....that includes engine schematics, designs, engineering, industrial processes, etc. Commie pukes, losers and scum absolutely CAN NOT do this stuff by themselves, they had to STEAL every single thing, like they stole from the Japanese to get in to this market.

[@conmanumber1]

L.e.d lighting and road indicators are a great standard feature. Can-Am lighting from my personal experiences after assembling hundreds of them are absolutely dismal as you cannot adjust them well and they self destruct to the point of not able to repair. Also speedo zeros off dead after so many miles.

[@nastynate2-kh4wg]

it needs a little more leg space in the back and front, a better shifter set up, it needs to be wider and a Quiter muffler and more towing pulling power an better place for a radio. heavier a arms. and longer 16 inch more bed

[@bethensor4680]

I strongly considered CFmoto but did not go with one mainly due to my concerns with long term US relations with China (parts availability and will dealers even exist in the US in the future?) and I personally do not like China’s politics. I know I buy other items made in China as they are hard to totally stay away from but for this significant investment I chose not to go with CFmoto.

[@jackorear2536]

That's actually a valid point that I had not considered. Thanks for making me think more seriously about that.

Great review.... did you always stay on high gear and normal mode? Did the belt ever slip?

[@dirttraxtv]

Thank you. Full disclosure, we kept it in normal but our unit was having issues with the different modes. Happens sometimes when we get a vehicle that's made its way around Canada before it gets to us. No belt slippage though. Everything else ran great.

How is resale on CF MOTO products compared to more popular name brands?

Its definitely something you need to consider. Its WAY better now, but it is a fact that a polaris or can am will hold its value better.

Please do a review on any hisun products. My local Polaris dealer recently started selling cf moto and hisun products. Never heard of hisun before but they have tons of inventory. Zero inventory for Polaris or even cf moto. Curious what kind of quality you get with these.

How is it finding parts tho? I’ve seen a handful of these rigs running around my area recently, so I’ve been considering picking one up myself for the price and off the floor package vs a ranger.

My question is if you do have problems with it how hard is it to get parts

[@ejdean85]

It's not hard at all. Be prepared and it's easy. Everything i've needed, i've gotten within 48-72 hours. I was proactive though. I have and oil / fluid change kit on standby. A new belt on standby. It's not always walk in walk out, but you can easily get what you need.

i test drove a cf moto 600 at 6ft2 and wearing 14 size boots i was jammed in the thing .Is this the same size as the 600 .Seeing you in this 1000 i must say either its bigger or you are not a big guy .I drove a 1000 ranger for a day on rental no problems ,It sucks that all we go buy is what you journalists say on the vehicle There are none on the dealers to try and buy a 20k $ plus rig not trying is not an option .I do like all you guys opinions they do help and your videos are great too but comes down to being able to try one first

[@dirttraxtv]

Yeah, I can understand your frustration. I'm 5'10" 200 lbs and fit in this thing really nice. Luke's a few inches taller than me and fits in this vehicle good as well. Totally understand that getting a ride first is the best. We're trying to give you our no BS opinions so at least you have a frame of reference for when you do get to try one out.
