🔴 Watch Next: Everything You Need to Know Before Buying a CFMOTO ZFORCE 800 EX kzbin.info/www/bejne/iqPMqaimdrWkfNE

[@leehess6335]

Once I seen the first one and seeing how it was made and the company KTM and I definitely remember that it has a Kawasaki motor and it’s made as well as it is for the price point and very nice people are going to hate that’s what they do five years ago you didn’t see the Polaris and the Can am 35,000 at first and I’m sure they’re even more when they already know how it goes I haven’t followed everything in a while but I’m getting back into it and once I seen this machine I was hooked So I’m trying to watch this many videos find out the different models and everything in my grandsons about to get off his five his first four wheeler and his grandma was gonna buy him one of those cheap Chinese made four wheelers I’m about to put my foot in the door on that one and tell her you got to get this one 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@ravenhuggins6546]

I've owned 3 cfmotos in the past 2 years, had a 600 cforce touring that I traded in for a 800xc touring, I've built it just for mud riding, snorkels, rad relocate, lift tires everything, and now I bought a zforce 800 trail. All of cfmotos machines are built amazingly well snd the prices are awesome

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

Oh wow, great to hear!

[@kurthuber0352]

I absolutely LOVE my 800XC all bs aside this is the nicest ATV I've EVER owned!

[@atvmadness9208]

Ive personally have had a 18 cf moto c400, 2020 c800xc both those machines built very well but had a terrible turn radius, and the xc had a overheat issue which was fixed on a bulletin, other than that both good machines and price point unmatched. Got my 2021 600 touring two-up and has been a great machine with the turn radius fix tremendously! No issues and have over 600 miles on it and plow with it for 3 winters. Have a 2022 800 zforce ex on the papers now waiting to pick up and can wait for it!

[@TS-tm2pi]

Most people that speak poorly of CF Moto are ignorant to the fact that KTM has a 49% stake in CF moto. The CF moto machines are a steal for the price. I would gladly take one over the 1000 Polaris Razor turbo that currently has a "No Drive Order" from the factory over a clutch defect that they have no fix for.

[@mzondi1970]

No negativity here but just because KTM has a foot in the CF Moto door doesn't mean they assemble motors like they would assemble a motor for KTM. I don't care what anybody rides but tell it like it is KTM and CF Moto motors are made on different assembly lines doesn't mean one's better than the others but it is a fact. Anything that gets anybody on the trail regardless of what it is is a positive to me

[@christownsend7602]

I always figured if you are happy with what you have and it works for you, it doesn't really matter what other people think about it. Your right to spend your money on what you want to spend it on. Most people who say stupid things like that just think they are the only ones who know anything and what they drive is the best thing in the world. Just ignore them, none of their business what you buy. I drive an XP1000 Polaris and have been told similar things. Some people just are insecure and have to put down someone to try and build themselves up. Enjoy your rig and be safe.

Funny thing is Polaris, Can am, Honda, Kawasaki, Yamaha all use Chinese parts. It is funny there is an extension for the oil filter area by a third party and they fit in both Can am and CfMoto it has the identical lineup. I bet the Can am engine is made in the same factory I could be wrong but that is odd. Kawasaki mule engine is made in China. If CfMoto improves their quality which it looks like they are they will take share.

I'm a new side utv owner, I bought a 800 zforce earlier this year and I love it. I choose CF Moto because of the reviews from KZbin channels like this one. Recently I saw someone post his for sale on FB market and the amount of hate he got from other utv owners was embarrassing. I couldn't believe grown man would come after this guy because he was selling a "chinese" machine. Anyways I did my homework on mine and I got exactly what I expected and I love it.

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

Glad you like your Zforce 800! Yes the people that went after that guy for posting his machine are simply morons. No need to give them the time of day. Thanks for watching and I'm sure you will have continued enjoyment with your Zforce 800! P.S I have a new video out today where I review my Cfmoto Zforce after 13 months of ownership and 3000 miles.

I’ve owned 3 CF Motos since 2019. I traded an 800 SxS in for a 600 CFORCE touring. My back doesn’t like sitting long and that SxS is cramped for me. I like to ride and be able to stand up and look around. One thing for sure is you get lots of bang for your buck with these machines.

[@scottschiller9883]

There are some serious shortcomings with the CFMoto sxs's but overall if you're going to take it fairly easy on the machine, it's a good machine for the money. The frames are complete junk and they aren't designed for bigger people or easy maintenance. They are fairly reliable, quick, quiet and cheap. They also have a pretty good following of folks that can help you make it moreso.

[@sebrofc]

Thanks for the video, I want a side by side and have heard a lot of the people downplaying this machine and saying I should just get one of the big name brands but it's easy for people to tell someone that when they aren't the one that has to pay for it. Reminds me of how I catch a lot of flack for my love of Ryobi and HFT but they do exactly what they are supposed to. Anyhow glad to hear this is a decent machine for someone on a budget like my family.

I hear before 2020 they weren't always reliable and the quality has really improved since then. I'm happy with mine and know many people that are also.

Do not do it I’m talking from experience I bought a cf moto and now I regret it I have always purchased big name brand and got my money worth. If you want I’ll sell you mine it’s new only 118 mile on it I would rather pay an extra $10,000 for quality. I’ll sell you mine 6,500 cash

[@richardlovato8980]

Save your money and buy something of quality cfmoto is trash I bought one and totally hate it. But then again I ride everyday not just weekends or once in a while. If you like top quality and don’t mind paying extra for quality parts get a KTM if you want reliably buy a Honda no one comes close to them. If you like state of the art go Yamaha Suzuki has power but old platforms Kawasaki is the same as a Suzuki just a different color John deer or attic cat are more for work/utility cfmoto is basically a brand new project bike at best or even worse than that an 870 lb paper weight Sorry cfmoto but you could never convince me that that product is decent even if you gave me a free fully loaded atv every year. 💩

I agree 👍

I would love to see yo7 fallow a KRX 1000 .

Follow? I'd be out front smh 🤣🤣

[@pedros195583]

I don't know why these things are being compared to higher end machines, they aren't comparable. Maybe at the entry level point. But stop comparing apples to oranges

[@Chris65018]

Love my Zforce trail 800, love your videos. I too put a uni filter on but haven't re-located the filter. since putting the uni on, how often do you clean it ? M ore or less than the stock one ? Thanks, Chris

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

Thanks. All depends how dusty it is where you ride. I cleaned mine once so far.

[@brandonhatfield2547]

Is the cab bigger than the trail or is it just the wheelbase?

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

I believe it's the same size.

[@richardwagner6320]

You ever adjust the valves on it

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

No it's sold now

[@jimmontroy9892]

thanks for the review. I've been looking at the 1000, and I'm wondering how it handles the snow. I'm in Ontario, and would like to take it ice fishing. I'd put a track kit on it, if it isn't good in deeper snow.

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

The tracks should work good. I always worry about clearance in the snow.

[@stanleyhoke1485]

I have a 2018 cfmoto zforce 1000 and live in northern pa has done grate in the past snow storms with the stock tires only 2 Complaints. Cab space is a little small on the 18 and going from a stop still to a slow moving is a little jerky other than that I love it got it for 10k with 200miles and a 2 year warranty

[@jimdougherty9472]

What is your thoughts on snorkel vs no snorkel? Yeah....it get a nut warm in the cab sometimes but I figured that is the way they made it so why change it. Going to order a UNI filter. That seems to make sense as far as upgrading the ZForce

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

My thoughts on a snorkel. If you can avoid deep water you don't need a snorkel. I don't go looking for deep water myself, I will always go around. But if people like that style of riding they definitely should snorkel.

[@jimdougherty9472]

@@FANATICALSIDERIDER My question was ore towards air flow. They claon it puts better cleaner air through the machine. I'm hoping UNI filter may help a lot

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

@@jimdougherty9472 oh ok sorry I was thinking you were talking about scuba diving lol 😆 Yes I've been thinking of relocating the air box but haven't done anything yet. The air box currently isn't ideal.

[@Paulie1978100]

How many miles can they go for? I'm new to these UTV'S I heard they top out at 20,000 miles. If this is the case I can't justify spending 16,000 euro on one. any advice greatly appreciated

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

I have no idea. I have 2 friends with atvs who both have 18K kilometers. I heard of a guy that has 50K kilometers

[@january2568]

How you access the fuse box?

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

Under the cover of the front storage, the hood.

[@hamdog69]

I owned 2 and both were junk. They was 7 years ago but wasn’t a time I went out I wasn’t getting towed home

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

I heard they were junk years ago. Obviously they have improved which is a good thing. They are now out selling all brands.

Hey I'm considering getting that same z800ex and was wondering about the trans, cvt belt, and tie rods, i mean how often do they need service?. Seems I'm always servicing one or the other on my 4x4, quad, 4 wheeler, whatever ya wanna call it hah.

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

I've owned this zforce 800 ex 11 months now. I have 2400 miles on it. Haven't done work or needed to to any of those components.

Zforce 800 vs 500 for strict leisure trail riding…can u help me decide

800 for sure. Larger wheel base, more comfort, better ride. Where are you from?

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

I agree 👍

[@johnnywhits6848]

Yeah but you said you never abused it and that's what people want to know. Because lots of people will put a side by side through some abuse.

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

There using it well and there is abuse. Using well I did, I rode it over some medium technical trails, not crazy stuff but somewhat harsh. When I say I didn't abuse it, I mean crazy rocky terrain or hills. That stuff will tear up your ride quick, or deep mud. Yes some people will put a side by side through some rough abuse. That is there choice. But lets face it, not many machines are meant for that and if that's what you like, be prepared to pay for repairs no matter the brand.
