CF Moto 650cc bikes!

Way to go CF Moto!

This bike HAS to be sold in the US soon:

http://www.cfmoto.cn/Product_info.php?id=131

There is also a fully faired touring version with hard cases coming out.

I hope CF Moto REALLY steps up their dealerships and distribution, because I want to see and ride this bike!

Based on all the pics online of it, I like it even better than the Hyosung GT250/GT650 (which I'm kind of in the market for, but can't find a new one in AZ...long story).

I'm wishing CF Moto very good fortunes on this one, gang.

Nuff said.

Now THAT has potential. Looks like a 650cc Ninja clone of sorts. Hot chick BTW. :P

It will always be about price, support, and reliability. 8)

It has that Kawasaki Er-6n vibe to it which is basically the naked Ninja.

I REALLY hope CF Moto gets these out BIG time, because I'm REALLY interested!

The CFmoto products I have seen have been above average for China quality.

If they can bring it at a reasonable price it should be a hot seller.

Hahahaha! Yeah, the wife and I went up there to look at some Hyosungs. They are literally located in the back of a saloon.

No CF Moto's,had 2 used bikes, had only 1 Hyosung GT650R hidden behind a rack so they had to wheel it out. It was an '08, covered in TONS of dust! It was a rinky-dink place, can't even call them a "dealer"! They only had a total of 3 bikes. It's really an accessory shop.

Said the MIGHT be able to get me a new Hyosung..yeah, right.

Nuff said.

Do a Google search for reviews. There are a couple out there. The few that I read are pretty positive.

The review I read years ago on Motorcycle.com said it was about 75% as good as an SV650 which is pretty darn good indeed.

That's a nice looking bike, Olds! Thanks for sharing your discovery with us.

The following link at KoRider says the CF Moto 650NK will be available for sale in the United States in late August of this year.

I really like this video, and the attractive lady.



Ride carefully at the Turtle Crossings!

Here's a very positive review of the CF Moto 650NK from Cycle News in Australia.

Well, I've gotta say I'm getting REALLY antsy waiting for this bike to hit the US.

My only fear is I will have drive to another state to check one out.

When I look at the dealer-locater, it no longer shows a dealer in AZ. In fact, when I clicked on SEVERAL states, there were no dealers, so I wonder if there was a glitch.

Anyway, I haven't seen any new info anywhere on the web.

Nuff said.
