My first bike, Aprilia Pegaso Strada 650 (single cyl) from 2008 also had a massive single disc Brembo setup from factory too, and it's the best system on any 50hp bike I know. It's great to see that this style is getting back in fashion again, the brake feel of those Brembo systems feel like a fully fledged middleweight tier on a much smaller bike. It's great

[@mervyoung5397]

Great review! I’ve had my 2024 CFMOTO 450SRS for a month now. It’s my first bike and I absolutely love it! Granted it could use a little more torque, but as a beginner bike, there’s ample HP. It’s light, nimble, super easy to ride and very forgiving. Mine has traction control, single swing arm, fully adjustable suspension, slipper clutch and ABS. I cannot fault this bike. The only competition to this would be the upcoming Aprilia RS457, but it’ll have slightly less HP and a little heavier I believe.

Those KYB shocks aren’t as sporty as WPs on the KTM, but it does make riding on the street a lot more enjoyable, and the infotainment system with CarPlay is a huge huge plus if u don’t like phones hanging on the bar

@yourstruly5769 the bike app is pretty cool. The bike comes with a GPS and a vibration alarm that goes to your phone. So the app lets you know where your bike is and if it was moved. Navigation works well on it. But on your bike screen, it is just by turn. Which is good for me. It tracks all your rides and tells you high speed and such. Then you can connect your helmet to your bike, but for some reason not my Ruroc. On the bike, you can control the songs playing on your helmet. Pretty cool all it can do. This could be the only bike you need. I'm not into the faster bike cause you can't legally use all the power on the streets.

Big difference in power, speed, and handling between the two?

[@pepe9565]

​@@JP-hn9mvi don't think it's that much of a difference in power but the CFMoto sounds better than the Ninja400. 🤷‍♂️

Oh and it’s got a two year warranty instead of a 1 year. I think that’s pretty cool as well. Oh and everyone saying that they blow up at 1700 miles I’m already at 2500 and it’s running just fine, rain or shine.

Competition is always good, it favors the consumers, we get more choices and the other brands would be forced to compete with pricing. CFMoto might be onto something here.

[@cruzship6119]

I have owned the CFMOTO 300SR for about 2 months now and I must say, I couldn't be happier with a beginner bike. I was skeptical as anyone would be because it's a chinese bike brand with an interesting name, but now that I own it and ride it day in day out, I have realised just how much of a competitor CFMOTO motorcycles are to the big 4.

[@brandont9916]

CF Moto has been around for some time. I feel they should be taken serious and should have a quality product after this many years. They’ve been putting out decent ATV’s for years as well and are known for including all the extra bells and whistles on base model machines.

[@garborubbish7034]

Not a fan of the graphics but all one color would look amazing other than that hope cfmoto succeeds with this their quads are solid and it’s such a good price for all the features I started last year on a z400 and would def be looking at this if not for getting an old f4i but this is a bike I’d own for years if I started on

I’ve owned this bike for 8months got mine last November.. around 8000+kms on the odometer.. Didn’t encounter any issue I really think CFMOTO did a Good job with this bike and really di extensive research to be a reliable bike 💯💯 Bought this because of the 270 degree crank has more character 🔥 Chinese bikes nowadays are really evolving.. More mileage to come with this bike

[@g-low6365]

older 400/600 cc cf-moto engines can be traced back to when they worked with kawa and the er6n/4n

[@chrispekel5709]

People say that, but I think they just reverse engineered (COPIED) the Kawa engine...due to Kawa moving to a new version of it and lax copyright laws in the china they got away with it. I've tried to find proof they bought the tooling or made them for Kawasaki and can't find any proof at all. But the CFmoto fanboys won't admit it haha

@@bulthaosen1169 the 450SS weighs 20 lbs less and has 10 more hp. On a beginner bike, 10 hp is a lot, 20% more power in this case to be exact, 50 vs 40 which it makes at 9500 rpm, 12,000 rpm in the over rev where is DOESNT make any more power, just gives you the option to have some more revs when riding hard on a track mid corner... That’s a major difference in the bike world… The 450SS is also going to handle better due to its ergonomic setup, and be significantly quicker in a straight line due to the added power and the way the crossplane parallel twin makes power compared to a single cylinder… the only advantages the triumphs have is they have a triumph badge and they have the neo-retro style look if you like that sort of thing. Looks are subjective though… I don’t think you know what you are talking about, you’re just a brand simp…
