CF Moto is giving the people what they've needed for years now; a fair priced bike.

I have this same bike (1000 miles) and I am having consistant "MCU critical system failure" message, and the throttle pulses at lower RPM's (bucks like a horse), dealership has not figured it out yet, I am starting to regret my purchase.😒

😀EDIT AS OF 08/18/23 CFMOTO sent a OTA update through the CFMOTO Ride app, it updated the Radiator fan logic and has fixed my issue with the MCU error! My faith has been restored! the Throttle mapping reset proceedure has also helped the throttle pulsing issue I was having and I have learned to control the throttle better over time. Loving this bike each time I Ride it!

I got a CFmoto 450ss and I’m blown away. I enjoy riding it more than my zh2! I’ve had it for a week and put 430 miles on it and I’ve romped on it the whole time. It’s extremely fun and the features are unbelievable. I can go into the app and look at every ride I go on and see all the stats. Lean angles, hard braking, fast acceleration ext. you have to try one on a first ride. It’s also extremely cheap to modify. I got pretty much all the mods I wanted for like 250$. That includes exhaust, quick shifter, tail tighty and some other things. I’m extremely impressed with CFmoto and I’m happy I got the 450

I had a chance to ride the ibex for about 50 miles. I was also very impressed and would pick it over any of it’s competitors. Ride safe safe dude!

We recently bought a new CFMoto CForce 600 four-wheeler and absolutely love it. So much machine for the money! I’ll be buying more CFMoto.

I bought this bike today to add to my 'collection.' I also have a HD road king special and a Suzuki C50 Blvd. This bike is so nimble and responsive. It's a lot of fun. Going from the HD RK to this is just fun. From low & heavy to tall & light, it's nice to mix up the riding experience.

Bought it in Germany 4 months ago. I am about 3.500 Miles in to the journey. Love the bike even though it has obvious flaws but wich bike doesn't have thos. My GF also likes it cuz it's comfy on the backseat :) for a short rider like myself 5'6" it's okayish I would say. It has a wide seat so the 825mm feels more like 840 smth. Still, would reckomend this bike for everyone looking for a hellova bang for a buck!

I have owned one in Australia since 2022 and agree with everything you have said. I have owned lots of bikes but this is the most comfortable bike I have ever owned. First ride was 450kms (281 miles) and I got off without any aches or pains anywhere. Did an across country tour (3500kms / 2187 miles in 7 days) on all road surface and spent 9 hours on it one day. This bike is brilliant!

The bike handles long distance touring on either black top or dirt roads / tracks but would be a handful for a small bloke like me in really technical off road its not designed for that.

If you use the quickshifter for whats its designed for - quick shifting under hard acceleration it works just fine. If you use it as a "defacto" automatic its clunky. Just like my BMW 1200 RS that costs double the price!


Wait and it wont be long that you insurance company will want to see your driving records and stats from the app in the event of an too!

I own this bike and am at break in now. I didnt even know it had the app, but being able to track my bike and knowing it's being moved is insane!!!! Thanks so much I got to download that and pair now. Thanks. I think bike has been great so far. It has little small issues but nothing that has deterred me from liking it. It's a great bike initially.

Rode the 200 miles from Aspen to Denver last weekend for a CF Moto demo on my T7. I turn 65 in September and have been riding dirt since I was 12. I'm ready for a comfier, long-distance tourer. I called my local CF Moto dealer upon return, and while they do not have one, they are shipping one in from their SLC dealership. Should be here next week. I'm really grateful to you and all the guys who have shared their experiences with the Ibex. Can't wait to start logging some big miles on this beauty.

[joek]

I know motorcycles pretty well, and you could *still* plop a BMW badge on it, and I'd be none the wiser. I think its cool. And everything I've heard for people who've actually *had* one is largely positive. Good for them.

[jasonwahl]

My wife and I demoed a few CF Motos at Americade this year and were really impressed. I rode the Ibex 800T, she rode the Papio, and we both rode the 700CLX, we were both really really impressed with their lineup and their demo crew! They also had an Ibex 450 on display that I sat on, and that's probably the one I'll get when they're available, thankfully for me I have a major CF Moto dealer an hour from me. Keep up the good work!

That is the second time this week that I have heard the complaint about the cruise not kicking off if you move the throttle. I don’t remember ever having a car that kicks the cruise off with throttle input, and I wouldn’t expect it on a bike. If I rest my hand on the throttle, I don’t want it kicking the cruise off. Sounds like a good system.

CFMOTO invited me for a eurotip with the 800MT. And it’s such a great bike, very comfy and such a great engine for an adventure. Really enjoyed the time 🙌

[Dragoninja]

I have a cfmoto clx 700 I have had since they first came to the states and its still amazing. The lack of aftermarket is the worst part of ownership.

[brianwood]

I have a NK800 sitting at 4200 miles and it’s been nothing but a fantastic bike.

[Jay-G]

Chase! After the break-in period! maybe over 2km up! that QS will be buttery smooth! Auto bleep works great right out the door!

[Daves_Man_Cave]

The power drops off like that because they restrict the bike with the ride by wire tables. You can twist the throttle as much as you want, but if the table says to back the throttle plates down to 70% after 5500rpm, that's all you get. An ECU flash usually cures that.

[PassionatelyOffroad]

@Chaseontwowheels, you do know that the engine in that IBEX is 100% the 790KTM Adventure bike right? CF Moto builds all 390 and 790 engines for KTM. They will soon be building the 890 and 1290. CF has had a partnership with KTM for some time now!

[jonathanmazzella]

All my bikes have to have cruise control. Get rid of the crf300 and getting this because of this. For me I’m so used to palming the throttle and applying more while I touch the brakes. I never roll my hand forward I just offset the brake force with more throttle. Can’t wait to get one of these!!
