[@Billy-c3m]

Love the bike, but the seat is very hard. Had mine reupholstered. Love the cruise control. Has plenty of power and speed.

[@mestahi]

So after year, how has it been?

[@1990-t1j]

i prefer the Heritage. CFMOTO bikes are reliable. This has a 4-year warranty in GB. CFMOTO clearly believe in their products. A friend rode a CFMOTO from China to England when no one had heard of the marque. It didn't let him down.

[@znt_]

Initially, I want the heritage, but I think I am getting the sport now. Why do you prefer the heritage? Just want to get your opinion, maybe something I didn't consider.

[@1990-t1j]

@@znt_ I like the handlebars and riding position. The Sport is a great bike, though.

[@znt_]

@@1990-t1j I thought about this too, thinking long rides would be a pain, but then I saw someone use a riser to attach a handlebar on the sport instead of the clipons, so basically a sport with the heritage handlebars

[@1990-t1j]

@@znt_ Whichever you buy, you will love.

[@Rangerscott69]

Only two year warranty in the USA.

[@roguetrader1857]

CF Moto has done a fantastic job in their Innovative and societal marketing campaign. The bike not only appeals very well to its audience, but it is also a desirable bike. And for that, CF Moto will become one of those brand that will capture the hearts of many if they making bikes that benefit and provide values and exceeds customers expectation.

[@thebeau7]

i love this bike, I have had it only 3 weeks and already have 400 miles on it. Im out here turning heads and getting compliments. I recommend this bike to any starter out there or anyone who hasn't been on a bike in a while. It rides so well and looks so good.

[@jowanyoung7613]

Have you tried it riding with a pillion rider? If so how did your pillion react to the seat

[@monlisimon]

Came here straight from watching your XSR 700/900 review!

[@edsonroadmoto]

Great job on this review! Not too many people who are 5’6” doing reviews 😊(I’m same height @160 lbs)

[@SigmaJAD]

Hello from UK. What a fantastic review. Style, information, everything. Subed.

[@leftymadrid]

Nice bike. But having tried basically every Chinese motorcycle, I have found that Zontes GK 350, R350, and the S350 are pretty incredible and affordable... The factory that makes them is "TAYO" with their own engine patents and amount of engines they put out is mind boggling!! Problem with the CF 700 is that it would be competing with the Japanese brands and the 600cc puts out amazing power!! I've had huge bikes, and very fast Ducati bikes. And went back down to the Zontes Gk 350 sports cafe, it really is amazing... And accessible to the A2 license holders. Even folks like myself who have a license to ride the highest cc engines available, don't go that route anymore, I've seen a trend of more people that are middle aged, getting midsize 500 to 350cc bikes, strange right? Great video thanks 👍

[@oscarortegamusic]

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

[@mohdamirulkamarudin6734]

Any review? I gonna buy it one but still consider either CL-X Sport, CB650 R or MT-07

[@De1Litto]

Excellent review. This brand has really been working hard and producing good machines lately. Waiting to see your review of the CF Moto 450 SR.

[@pinorkal]

Comparing this bike to Yamaha xsr700/mt07/ kwaka ninja 650 naked and Honda cb650r are correct except they are all A2 or learners bikes in Australia. The 700clx is cheaper. Has 30kw & more torque, more features and same if not longer warranty. Worth a serious look I'd say

[@Synfulz]

I like the features and looks of this bike. I was at CF Moto Binan the other day looking at the 450 NK and SR. But this certainly appeals to me more.

[@aNsWeRkEy02]

Hopefully mag release din sila ng budget cruiser bikes..sa ngayun motobi evo 200 ska skygo lang meron budget cruiser

[@M5S]

Good looking bike! Is it possible to get rid of some of the stickers, make it a bit cleaner -or are they under some sort of clear coat?

[@jdmcivics9649]

2022 CFMOTO NK650 nebula white gray and CLX-700 Sport velocity gray you won't regret either one. 2021 KTM Duke 390 BS6 silver color is nice too..

[@akiooquendo234]

Can you review the 150 to 160cc scooters like the Honda ADV/PCX and the Yamaha NMAX/NEROX?I can't find an excellent commentary and perspective of how the bike looks when a rider is on the bike riding the motorbike.

[@sunshowerpainting1]

Bought a new 2022 CFMOTO CLX SPORT 700. It is an excellent bike. I was worried because it was made in China but I am so impressed with its reliability, fit and finish and ride. A 9 out of 10 for me. I'll get another CFMOTO in the future.

[@lawrenceong8501]

Between this bike compared to the Husqvarna Svartpilen, which one would you personally prefer?

[@neoncat3546]

701, same engine, looks both but vitpulen is kindda old at this point so cfmoto.

[@keesvrijhof9518]

i love it .........YES !! Bought it march 30 what a nice machine to ride , only FUN FUN FUN! i had my old bike cb600f 2004 for 8 years , with more HP ... loved it too , but now my new CF CLX700 sport is my new companion . greets from Holland Rotterdam 🤪

[@syazwan_ruslaine]

How would you compare this to the Triumph Trident 660?

[@davidg2116]

Here in the UK this bike is £6,999. It is probably a good bike but it's too expensive. The cb650r is £7,399. Z650 is £6,949, MT07 £6,795. Very very few will buy the cfmoto here where it is a relatively unknown brand with a small number of dealers. The 4 year warranty means nothing if you have to get it serviced by a cfmoto dealer and there isn't a dealer within 50 miles of london.

[@SvanbergSimon]

The other brands should learn from this and put cruise control on lower end bikes. Still can’t believe hondas nc platform was revised with ride by wire but no cruise control on the entire platform. On some bikes you atleast have an option to buy it even though BMW puts it in a 2000$ package with other things i could do without. It’s a good move from CF-moto. Now they have something that few other brands in the same category can offer.

[@John_Ridley]

Agreed I kind of want either an MT07 or a CB650R, but I don't want a bike without cruise control so I may wind up with one of the 700CLX models instead.

[@luisreyes-gy3yd]

Would you choose this 700clx over the Yamaha xsr700?

[@VinCent-vk6wc]

Great review.. Next, CFmoto 450sr please. 🙏

[@yit5038]

can't wait for their 250 clx :D

[@johnDukemaster]

Maybe the yoke/fork stops are adjustable? Like on certain KTM's, it's a adjustable bult-nut solution.

[@JoaquimGonsalves]

This one, to me, is the budget Indian FTR. Love what they're doing in the market.

[@CaptainChristianZ1818]

what im concern is the dealership aftersales service and parts. i already encounter benelli san fernando pampanga branch nightmare and a friend of mine cfmoto motorcyclecity commonwealth. both refuse warranty job. if you get a bike without problems for first 2 years all good. But if you happen to have issues like clutch issue or engine leaking issue or brake issue within 3 months, it is a warranty job. its scary to encounter dealerships from benelli and cfmoto. So, the brand matters, dealership matters, especially in the philippines. too many cowboy dealerships. thank god benelli still have 1 very decent aftersales service in ortigas.

[@peeweeabanco7241]

did ur friend try to take his cfmoto to other dealers? im planning to buy a clx very soon but im really worried of the after sales.

[@CaptainChristianZ1818]

@@peeweeabanco7241 He did try, but long story short, the dealer he bought from didn't want to repair clutch issue after less than a week, my friend wanted to tow to another dealer for a 2nd opinion, then the dealer he bought from made a u-turn and decided to repair under warranty for him. Sounds very dodgy to me. I would recommend to buy it from the main dealer instead. Lucky for me, Benelli other dealers fare much better. they managed to fix my bike and now all good.

[@shinababes]

Motorcycle city historically has questionable service capabilities. I never suggest for anyone to get theirs at Motorcycle City. They normally keep their entry prices low especially for financing but os a nightmare for aftersales.

[@shanuization]

Beautiful bike . Thinking uses the sane handle bar and headlight on my yamaha xsr 700

[@stubbingtonmarigold3032]

I sat on one in Texas last week, it’s missing a quick shifter, but literally had everything else which is strange- the only build quality issues I saw where the switches looked old- not old design- but like they have been out in the sun for decades ( they need to change the plastic somehow) the price was right in Texas, but the vin isn’t recognized by insurance yet = no insurance = no registration.

[@thebeau7]

it was an issue for me as well getting the insurance but they figured it out. I highly recommend this bike

[@johnmeurer4780]

Why do you need a quick shifter? Never road a bike with one, you could quick shift without one. Just chop the throttle during upshifting with out clutch

[@SWTVENOM]

What did you mean by this comment? Like is it a great deal for that price? Does it make the bike more of valuable proposition at that price?

[@kubiz5]

I would buy it… But there are a few cons from my POV. 1) Powerless engine, 2) Lots of huge logos which make it look cheap 3) Missing removable rear seat for (at least a tiny) female passenger

to be honest for a 700, its not slow at all
