Great and detailed review! I do wish the review also covered the bike's adjustable suspension with compression, rebound, and preload both in front and at the rear. It's another significant feature that makes this bike unique in its class and price range. No need to worry about weight, because buyers can really make this bike theirs, no matter how light or heavy they and their luggage may be.

[@johntait4933]

Big thanks Jinno and greetings from Australia…. Great review and the most detailed yet. I have my CFMOTO 800 mt on order and chose the same spec as yours including top box and panniers. So good to see a proper review and safe riding!

[@instinct0199]

The attention the design engineers put on this was damn insane

Very cinematic, glorious video!!!

[@awangkuakram8371]

Loves the video quality! Its great 😃😃

[@Purowalangkwenta]

I have seen this bike personally at motostrada. The silver with leather seats are the bomb! Imma get one soon! BTW. Kudos to the owner of motostrada. They are closed last holiday but they still let me in to check out the bike and showed me around the whole facility! AAA+++ service I say!

[@patriceho5532]

Good n nice review Jinno...the best about the CLX700 so far...

[@stethesteguy2093]

Fantastic review, went to look at one today in the UK but so glad I can get them in the Philippines as I want to live there soon, salamat po!

[@Ride_XP]

Great review! Enjoyed this one. So curious to ride this bike

[@j0hanjamal]

I just found out about this bike's existence. Totally in love with the design. Quite affordable here in Malaysia. Thank you for the great review :)

[@azminaidil6987]

May i know how much the price in Malaysia ?

[@j0hanjamal]

@@azminaidil6987 just below rm30k

[@windicitiboy331]

Love your videos!!!! Just starting to get into motorcycle, can you please do a video on top 5 beginners cafe racer?

[@Arthurzeiro]

In terms of looks it fits really well between an MT-07 and XSR-700

[@edrikmercado5045]

Sir Jino this is a very good video review... it just needs a video clip of riding with engine sound..

[@kkhalifah1019]

5:56 - I don't think the weight is an issue at all for beginner riders. It is on par with the likes of the SV650, and it hides it well by having a small fuel tank & carrying most of the weight down low (fat rear & 18" inch front help anchor it all down pretty well). Initially the 180-deg parallel twin put me off but after test riding it recently I found it to be the best execution of this garden variety parallel twin available -- the induction noise is definitely a highlight & really sets it apart! The feel of the switchgear takes some getting used to though coz they're membrane switches, like on my Triumph Tiger 850. Not the clicky traditional type, but they are definitely a far cry from the cheap-feeling ones on, say, Benelli QJ bikes. Overall, a more modern & far better specced offering than the SV650, better sounding than the Z650 and, where I live, a hell lot cheaper than the MT-07. My 5'3" wife who's looking for her first bike was instantly swayed from her initial choice the SV650.

[@taurus8422]

All the features that this bike brings to the table in it's price range is really something we've never seen before in before. The only problem i can see right now is the bike's fuel consumption. It's almost 1L more compared to SV650 while having a smaller fuel tank, which results in almost 100km less mileage on one full tank. And i'm afraid that will be all that matters in the upcoming future my friend. It's really sad, because this bike could have start a revolution ...

[@pnoyryder68]

Great review! Love the detailed breakdown of the ride and components. Would love for you to do a long term test review, maybe after a year of ownership. Also a ride comparison to say Yamaha's MT-07 which I believe is one of its competitors. While I'm impressed with its components and price, especially for an initial offering, time will tell regarding its reliability, especially compared to its Japanese rivals

[@15lastone]

Dude your videos are as always professional. Happy riding ad thanks for sharing, I'll subscribe to your channel 😊😊

[@sonicbong8052]

Great review. Great video.

[@MoroMagrew]

Certainly a feature packed bike, but I cannot resolve myself with the looks. The Yamaha XSR and the Honda CB650R are so much more sharp in the neo retro department. I had a look at these last summer and I couldn’t get along with the looks, ended up going with a similar priced Yamaha R3. I guess for the price, the CFMoto is really good value, they all just slightly miss the mark in styling. That’s my opinion, beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

[@keninthewind6216]

Great review 👍 I'm buying one and can't wait until I get it! I'm 65 and ride a '05 Road King Classic with 16" apes and it's getting to be a little hard on my shoulders. Plus I want a scrambler to ride fire roads in my area. Witch is right in the middle of Orygun!

[@McLeod719]

Thank you for showing this CF model! Originally I was considering the NK but you have changed my mind (I just got home from the dealer). On another note: will you let me know the HJC helmet you wear in the review? The checkered design is awesome. Thank you.

[@SmittyAZ]

Thanks for the upload. I just downloaded the latest Owner's Manual. I guess the new bikes have a Fuel Consumption on the Gauge?

[@omistic]

Wish there was bigger version since i am 6.4. Think this one would be small for me 😞 Such a beautiful bike ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@kevskibiz]

I do like the look of this bike … is it coming to the uk 🇬🇧🤙 … nice review thanks

[@benz201forever]

2:49 MT-60 is a dual sport so looks like the bike is intended for multiple road types , cross-country without looking like an adventure bike

[@denontour]

Good review !!! 😁

[@jqp7354]

Bike matches your helmet perfectly

[@jimmydesperado2936]

Beautiful bike....and your review was off the charts. You sold me on it. Now if you could please arrange delivery to the U.S. that would be great. :)

Hello. Very nice reviews. I am between the clx700 heritage and the 650gt. Can you give an opinion since you reviewed both of them. Thank you

Hi MotorDeal, i'm from Vietnam can you answer for me about my last issue before take the money down is this bike can mount the top case and side case too? Or just only side bag?

Hey man can you kindly state if it's just as reliable and well put together compared to a Japanese four cylinder inline?

Please do a review on the Kymco AK550. :)

[@stevendavies8496]

Great vid have you any idea of when coming to the UK ,, keep up your good work

[@L1ster666]

Looks like a smaller FTR 1200 from the back. I must say I like it.

[@mickstafford456]

Nice tidy tail. Spoilt by the tyre hugger, they've used instead. Exhaust has a nice bark to it though.

[@TubeYounes]

i bought a new one 2 weeks ago, check engine an hour into riding from the dealer, p057129 code, dealer says air sensor...not sure if crappy reliability or a lemon, but since day one, when you turn the throttle, i hear a weird sound next to the radiator/ tank, did you notice a sound when testing it?

[@jm2246]

Eyeing for this as my first bike, hopefully I would be able to handle this hahaha.

[@oscarortegamusic]

Because this is based on the Kawi Z engine... do you think or know if parts interchangeable? (oil filter, air filter, exhausts)

[@SwallCloud]

Hi, height 1200mm, is it handlebars height or rear view mirror height ?

[@simpatiko2k5]

is there a way you can put a topbox to the Heritage?

[@cedricdecharme]

Love the CLX SPORT

[@gmodesike]

Sure wish they'd make one with a low seat height like the Honda Rebel. I'd buy that especially with hp like the Rebel 1100.

[@pinorkal]

Interesting review. In Australia this bike would not be considered a beginner/ learner bike based upon power/torque. Ie < 40kw. 3yr unlimited km warranty and $P, good quality branded components it's work a serious look. C.f. Honda cb650r neo retro I would think is closest comparison. Ps is the engine a copy of the Kawasaki 650 parallel twin?

[@sergusster]

The looks is f*ing amazing!

[@takenbythewindNdrivenbythesea]

Superb 👌❤️

NICE REVIEW .! can i know the model of your helmet ?

[@Niro.C]

I wonder how it competes with the Benelli Leoncino 800.

[@FoamSquatch]

Bike is nicer than I expected. It seems to fill the gap between wanting a Svartpilen 701 but only having budget for the 401

[@pinorkal]

Do you get this in the US ?

[@valegrazie4659]

Can you review the Honda CBR500R???

[@johnny_skill]

Nice bike... can’t beat any of the top naked bikes like the Yamaha xsr700

[@rickyrolls6460]

how does the suspensions feel? does it have abs as well? but considering the price for a 700cc bike , this is darn cheap!

[@edwardcampbell3420]

Needs more displacement. Anyone know if that's going to happen to the CLX?

[@generaldistrust]

should mention upfront what crankshaft it has, as it sets the firing order. edit: sounds like crossplane at the sound test.. but on other vid it sounds like flatplane

[@krikrimy3082]

How to pick up the bike, if it falls over?

Can you turn of the self cancelling turn signal, it would be a problem if you will be taking your exit and the turn signal keeps turning off.

I agree. Working with my dealer on that. Very dangerous.

[@ThePaabling]

We are in the same boat. I'm torn between the two.

[@braayan03]

I'd get the Interceptor, if I were you.

[@JRUF40]

I like both, but I’m really more a classic type person, and I enjoy the simplicity of the RE.... if you want something with more features, the CLX could be worth looking at.

[@lildurian]

@@braayan03 Hey dude i am leaning toward RE too. I tested RE but not the cfmoto. Best way for me to sum it up is it rides like a mazda miata/mx-5 of bike world. It is more than the sum of its part. It rides better than it spec read.

[@lildurian]

@@JRUF40 I am more less trying to justify NOT buying RE. The bike feels right. I am afraid if i get the interceptor i might not buy any other bike.
