My favorite thing about this bike is aesthetically it looks NEW. If you look at the other big brands, their bikes have looked the same for a decade. The average person couldn’t tell the different between a 2013 and a 2023. Innovation encourages innovation, whether you like CFMoto or not, this bike will incentivize the other brands to step up their game.

[@sonamgate7]

is this a hint for the busas??

[@ShikiKaze]

@@sonamgate7 TBH the Busa is long in the tooth but it's iconic. Honda and Kawi are the ones that heavily clone their bikes across models year after year and pretty much nothing to offer OEM wise other than an increase in MSRP.

It also helps that they got the dude who designed Aprilia bikes to design the 450SS/SR. (Most) Aprilia bikes just straight up look great.

[@ShikiKaze]

@@switcherlp780 I mean it ain't the prettiest bike but it still a legendary icon for dusting almost every heavyweight bike known to mankind until the HR2 Kawasaki sent out to kill people. And I get it. It's not my fav bike either. I'm more of a cruiser/classic myself. Plus the parts look similar to a TL1000S but stretched out.

[@IgoByaGo]

My parents and I went to go look at bikes and I specifically wanted to see one of these. My mom saw this and was like "This was the bike I saw the other day and tried explaining it! It looks so cool, like a baby Ducati!." But, I think I am going to get one. It fit me way better than the RC390 and Ninja 400. I also liked the 700 CL-X Sport and Heritage. It was also fun because it was the first time in over 15 years we all went to go look at bikes together. My dad wanted to be with me when I got my first bike, but I lived in Alaska at the time and he lived in Texas. Now we are all in Texas and he is going to go riding with me the day I get my bike.

How's the build quality of the cage?

[@andrewporter386]

@TheRealMelinko most of the cages have terrible mount locations. That clamp around the frame vs bolting directly into it. The one I got does both so it's stronger. The welds aren't the prettiest but they're solid and the powdercoating is nice. It's a solid bead with no spatter. Looks like a machine did it so I trust it. And it was only 168$

Your advice on the dealer network is spot on. It is one reason why I haven't gone to look at an Indian Scout or a Triumph since the closest Indian dealer is almost two hours away. The closest Triumph dealership is just over an hour away. Whereas are there are several Japanese dealerships in my metro area plus two Harley dealers. One of the Japanese dealerships also sells CFMoto and BMW motorcycles. Repair and parts availability is very important.

[@BigBadJohn]

As for reliability, there's a reason why the oil filter you showed says it fits a line of KTM motorcycles. It's a story as old as time, a big company starts having components or entire products made in Japan, China or India and then about 10 years later that country springs up as a manufacturer that challenges or even replaces the original company that basically taught them how to build a quality product in the first place.

Yep and CF Moto has been making small displacement KTM bikes AND their big displacement engines since 2013, so if you can trust KTM you can trust CF moto.

I love everything about this bike other than the size. I am 6' 220lbs and I currently own a 700 CL-X and love it. I would like to see them make a 700ss as the 450 is just a bit small and underpowered for me. But no doubt I love my CL-X. I also ride a Harley EG.

That’s a logical progression. I had a cbr300r and loved it. It checked the boxes I needed and when I moved up I actually went to the cbr650r and I love it as well. Everything I’m hearing about the Cfmoto’s right now is good. A lot of bang for the buck. Hope y’all have fun!

[@Team_Nacho_Moto]

@someoneelse1i1i right on! I think she'll finish up on the CBR650R. She's got her MSF BRC down, and going to BRC2 in October- the 300 was really good for her and she's enjoying the extra torque and top end speed from the 450SS. I've noticed her aversion to highway riding is going away now on the CF450SS. I'm going to give it 2 to 3 years and she'll probably make the step up to the i4 650R. I was a diehard Kawi guy, but these Hondas have been growing on me! Keep the rubber side down🤙

Both BMW and CFMOTO dealerships are about a 10 minute drive away from our home :) I have a home in the Fredericksburg, Va area and Extreme Powersports, located on Lafayette Blvd has both the KTM brand and CFMOTO brand. Then I have Morton's BMW in close proximity to Extreme Powersport, located on Route 1(Patriot Highway). So, I have the best of both worlds :) ...Personally, I would not do Suzuki, Aprilia, or Ducati simply because the dealerships are simply too far to have something fixed or for maintenance..

[@Riffs4Serotonin]

Glad I saw this video. Closest cfmoto dealership to me is in Nashville, over 2 hours away. Not dealing with that lol

[@Aussie_R6]

OC: I think that over time CFMoto will prove their a reliable brand. After all I do believe KTM has CFMoto building and assembling a few of their bikes. Pretty sure the reliability questions come from the history of Chinese motorcycles and scooters being spotty at best. With a decent size group of people being burned by bikes made with substandard parts and materials and having overall poor fitment and finish to the bike. But off the bat the 450SS looks to be the best looking lower CC beginner bike on the market and with time we'll definitely see floods of aftermarket support probably close to the kinda support the MT07 receives as dealers can't keep that bike in stock. By that time I'm sure all reliability concerns about the 450SS will be put to rest.

[@gregory2014]

OC! I want the Nebula White 450SS as my first beginner bike, but the supply says nope! My closest dealership (20ish miles away) sold both 450s in two hours of putting them on the showroom floor and they're not expecting more for months! There are 4 other dealerships within 100 miles and they're all sold out. I've only seen one 450SS in the wild and it looks great. Thanks @chaseontwowheels for putting out videos for me to drool at!

Doesn't sell over here. The 450 is not powerful enough for a sports bike, and while it's affordable, the mpg is way lower than bigger bikes. Someone who wants to save money, will probably want to spend a bit more on a bike that has nearly 10-25mpg higher fuel economy.

[@Beanszo]

Bro, please review a husqvarna 701 supermoto! I don’t think anyone does a review as thorough as you

[@killacoiler1707]

I think that if you have the capability to do so, people will want to see and hear different exhaust options for this be it a simple slip-on to full header back systems. Other things people might want to see is what performance increases are afforded by these different systems and whether they required a remap of the ECU. What tail tidy kits are available and how do they look? I know you kinda put in a plug for R&G, but TST Industries offers one as well along with different rear signal options that you can package in. What I think would be truly awesome is if CF Moto offered the undercarriage cowl as a standalone part that could be integrated into the NK model with a scoop behind the front wheel. I would love to see more options for Street Fighter builds for the NK as well. The beauty of these two bikes is that they are already very good looking machines and utilize the exact same chassis so retro-fitting different components between the two should be easy breezy. The question of reliability IMO is moot because the engines themselves have already been proven in the KTM machines. I am curious to see how long it will be before there is a KTM model rocking the 450 mill? It has all kinds of advantages over the 390 and shows immense potential in the market. I think it helps that CF Moto has a former Ducati engineer as a chief design consultant for their Street division of bikes that while most of them share powerplants with their KTM partners they have a distinct look and fit & finish that sets them apart from being a rebadged KTM offering. Gotta love options.

I'd recommend all riders to learn your bike and how to basic service it yourself. As a certified auto mechanic I can say I do my own service now even on my bikes. It pays, literally and figuratively. Granted I can't do balancing because I don't have a machine, but that's about all I can't do myself.

If someone is ok with buying a KTM, then they should be ok with buying this bike. CF Moto and KTM have partnered together to make these new bikes.

[@joek81981]

They're gonna make a big sport bike soon. 2025ish. They have deals with component mfgs that are beyond legit. At $10k, a balls-out cf moto with WP suspension and Brembos on board is an outside maybe. North of $10k, an all-around pass I'm afraid. The value and the style are the only reason to consider this over something (anything) else. The 450SS has that in spades. If the value on their big bike isn't there, well, why not just have a sport bike from someone you've heard of? The value is their best card to play.

Was waiting for this video from you dude! Would love to see more on this bike. In Europe they come with a 5 year warranty wich is more than any other manufacturer.

[@yeisonartiquez8469]

I am shook! I wanted an MT 07 for about three months now. I have close to 18 months experience on smaller displacement bikes but I was so close to making my decision on the upgrade. Seeing the cf moto 450 NK REALLY MESSED ME UP HAHAHAHA. Now I’m indecisive. I hope Yamaha makes an MT05 hahaha I think it would be the perfect bike 🤞🏽

[@GranAutizmo]

Ooo, plz do a 450ss vs r7, since you've done so much beginner content on an r7 😋

[@gabrielgonthier5049]

Very good vdo, once again. I've been a rider for 34 years and have a very strong liking for Japanese bikes. I've gotten older and you know, as we get older, we stick to our positions, our comfort, our safety, our conservative spirit... Japanese bikes have proved their worth for decades and, as you say, it's not by doing a few thousand kilometers on these new Chinese bikes that we'll have any idea of their long-term reliability in terms of years but... times have changed and so has technology. I don't claim to be a mechanic, but I have four Japanese motorcycles that I take great care of and maintain with passion. My roots in these brands are deep-rooted, so I don't yet know if I could invest in this CFMoto company, although I feel it deserves my trust... Their low prices and five-year warranty have me seriously thinking about it. Time, reflection and videos promoting them will guide me towards them or not, I'll see. In any case, watching your vdo's about this brand, guides me and informs me very well. Keep up the good work! Thanks a lot.

Believe in the power of trends. Japanese industry is gradually declining, while China's industrial capacity is strengthening rapidly. Just like the Japanese brands Panasonic, Sharp and Toshiba. The fate of Japan's motorcycle industry is foreseeable.

[@GTP786]

​@believeingood5875 The Japanese reign supreme in quality control and have been doing it for over 50 years. The Chinese also have a huge problem with counterfeiting and quality control. Good luck on your China bike.

[@believeingood5875]

@@GTP786 Just like the once invincible Nokia and Motorola. Believe in the power of trends.

[@GTP786]

@@believeingood5875 o you mean like Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Mazda, Lexus, Acura, Infiniti, Subaru. The top selling and most dependable brands. Let me list the great Chinese auto manufacturers, ooo ummm yeah that's right there none LOL. I'm going to tell the CCP you suck at your job.

[@patrickbueno1728]

Getting the 2024 model soon, nebula white. Great info in the video to consider before buying. Tst industries also has some great mods for the 450ss. Really looking forward to watching more of your content and learning! Thanks for what you do, from one idiot to another,😂!!

[@markhall3434]

Love the 450NK.. Black Friday advertised $3999, Went over ready to buy.. In Stock. Low seat, light weight, looks awesome. Does 110 MPH flat out! The 450SS was $1K more. But WAIT.. with shipping, Dealer Prep.. W/Taxes, Tags, and Title.. Out the Door.. the 450NK was $5900? Wow.. wasn't ready for that!.. Buried was $750 shipping (From China?). What kind of OTD prices are typical for CFMoto? If it breaks. will the dealer actually fix it in a reasonable time? Dealer repairs are generally an issue. Dealer is the problem. Decided to keep my Chinese KPX250. $2900 shipped, (which I dropped 4" and converted to 17" super moto tires. It's just too fun doing 35MPH twisties around here at 60 on a disposable, indestructible bike, that I can buy a whole new engine/trans on Ebay for $700. It's Flawless.

[@chancer194]

My local dealership that’s about 10 miles from me sells the CFMoto 450 SS. They had about seven on the floor. Such a beautiful bike. They were incredibly nice as well and said they were selling the 450 SS like crazy

[@kelseyclark1281]

OC. I can't wait to see the mods you put on this bike. Are you thinking of doing a tune if possible?

[@BenYarmis]

19:16 A 90 day warranty on the wheel and steering bearings is pretty bad. I would expect those to last at least a year if not two easy

[@robbieracer3294]

I replaced those bearings on my Gixxer 600 once, but that was five years later and they didn't even need replacing, I just wanted fresh parts here and there. But CFmoto's warranties are a little odd

[@255ales]

GOGO more videos on the 450ss im getting one soon!! I'm looking forward to customize

[@jennynester9980]

OC: test rode this bike the other day and fell in love. Could you do a track day video?? 👀

[@justinmetheringham7380]

Few hundred miles.... Bish I got 2300 on mine in the first month of owning and love it.

[@carlosvejar3938]

OC, it's January 2024. Looking for 800nk videos when you come back. Hope you are enjoying your time

[@samleo6784]

I crashed my 450SS a month ago but when I did the only things that were damaged are the fairings and the built-in frame slider

[@battlegatetcg]

I had CFMoto’s 250 automatic bike and loved it

[@vulcandawg7623]

I'm actually looking at getting one of these as my second street bike

[@fireice1997]

It’s an awesome bike. I got it as my 21st bike lol and it’s by far the most fun. Dare I say better than my H2!

[@chaseontwowheels]

Dang now that's a review! What makes you enjoy it so much as compared to all the other bikes you've got?

[@lukas2090]

Why is it one of the most fun bikes? And what about caring another passenger? ​@@fireice1997

[@joshtonelli3319]

OC. I'm not gonna lie. I'm listening to this at work and I was like is he riding a R1 or MT10 while talking about the CF moto? The bike sounds great!

[@Spartan375X]

After market support is a big one. My Grom, just about anything you can think of will be available. My CRF230M, I have to cross reference frequently and guess if other bike parts fit.

[@nix294]

CF Moto is actually quite experienced in making motorcycles. They are the main manufacturer of KTM motorcycles for the China market. The Ibex 800 is literally using the engine of the KTM Duke 790

[@jaixc]

Most of the people who can service a cfmoto bike, I have nearly 3 within an hour or less from my house.. Personally If I was going to get a cfmoto it would either be the 650 and 700 naked bikes or the ibex 800 adventure bikes. Those adventure bikes make more sense to me overall, since a lot of the roads here in WV are half gravel and off road trails everywhere, not to mention the curvy mountain roads all over the place here. But if I didn't want to go off road, those naked 650 and 700's are a nice medium ground not as peppy as a liter bike, but not as slow and cumbersome on the inclines for the mountain roads, and have a nice sitting position for longer rides. I've been looking into them for months, they're pretty good price compared to the Suzuki or Honda type bikes. I feel if you're going to get an Adventure bike though, rather than being a trailer queen and afraid to get a scratch on it, you want to ride it like you stole it off road, ding it, bang it up, and ride those trails like they where meant to be rode, then go on road and ride home, thats my thought. So the price is a nice medium for me. Not too expensive where I'm worried how much the parts are going to be to repair it, but not cheap where they will break cause they're flimsy cheap parts. So That's most likely what I'm going to get this coming spring when I get my taxes.

[@grimmako4879]

This sounds kinda rude but I think these bikes are some of the best and coolest things that came out of china and I hope to see more support for cf in the us

[@abbyjo75]

OC! 2 wheels down. Ride safe, bro! 🏍🏍

[@IgoByaGo]

Thank you for making another video on this bike.

[@santinoshariffe2720]

in my country and im sure this would be the same for any country. Resell value on any CFMOTO motorcycle is just bad. Something major to consider specially when investing in 400cc bikes and you know you gonna get something bigger later on.

[@jonathanrubi7174]

Hey man, i have been contemplating whether i should get 450ss or R3, I am getting the 450ss in few months and i will definitely make a video about it lol

[@alexguest9937]

Fabulous bike! I'm really tempted. But better colour schemes would be good IMHO. I do know that CF Moto have been producing ADVs for some years. And the 650 types have an engine which is a copy of the Kawasaki Ninja 650/ER6 engine and that's a proven design. So I would be confident that these bikes will be 'reliable' (as much as any bike is). Could be the one for me (???)

[@NavySWO]

I know the 450ss looks great, has excellent features and reviewers are giving it positive feedback on performance….but I’m concerned about long term reliability compared to Japanese options. Unfortunately, my closest CFMoto dealer is over an hour away.
