- This is probably the first UK review of the new CFMOTO 450MT !
After waiting, researching, test riding various rides and much deliberation, i made my decision on first sight and one short ride!
Fair to say it was love at first sight.

Congratulations!
Australia has had these for a month & sold a bucket load.
There are a few things to note: seat base rubbers especially the front ones tend to go missing. Keep an eye on them & perhaps glue them on.
Secondly: apply anti-seize to the chain adjustment bolt thread that are inside the swingarm. These can corrode. Steel & aluminium don’t mix.
You’d probably want to remove the slackness of the throttle cables as well. Makes for on-off throttle applications on road & off-road.
Otherwise, enjoy it & run it in & serviced before dirt road use.
That's some great tips, thank you! 😊
One of the great CF Moto selling points is the 4 year parts and labour warranty :)
This is so weird! I called into my royal Enfield dealer at 5pm tonight and sat on a new Himalayan. I was not excited. Then I saw it.... The cf moto 450 mt.... I sat on it and my daughter said it suits you more dad!! lt was beautiful. And ... I was excited.... Test ride booked for Monday.....
Brilliant! 😊
Saw one yesterday looked really good.
yeah the new himi tbh has lost its original spark, old 411 still looks better, they should've stuck on that design.
@@metalsadmanAll those glorious colours and they choose such dull Matt paint 😢
I’ve been looking forward to seeing this,, I’ve looked at a lot of ride reviews but I wanted to see yours as you have a great way of making it real,, after this I’m going to test ride one,, I’m 6 foot 4 and don’t fit many bikes at all but I’m going to try this one,, thanks girl,, your a gem. Stay sharp and ride safe 🇦🇺🇬🇧
Thank you Geoff. There is a higher seat option for taller folk. 😊
I do love an unbiased review of a bike that the reviewer loves. I was the same a few years ago with a particular brand of camera! 😂😂 Ride safe and enjoy. 😃
Thank you 😊
well done Sally i bought the 650 MT and took it on the dave day run and never missed a beat . Nothing but praise for CFMOTO and Bike treads.
I think now is very diffcult find a 650MT, because of 700MT "update", but i think is a very very good deal if you find last ones...
So happy for you! Well done, Charlie...looking forward to multiple ride reports!!
Just woke up and watched your brilliant review. I'm so happy for you your first new bike which you deserve for just being a wonderful human being. Look forward to updates.
Thanks from Sri Lanka!
Great review! Looking forward to watching your future adventues.
I bought a 650MT last October as my first bike after passing my full test first time August at 57 yo, i absolutely love it, just ridden most of the north Yorkshire moors over the weekend in the lovely weather, i'm sure you'll love the 450MT! looking forward to more videos. 🙂
Great that you're loving the 650 😊
All the best with your new bike Charlie 👍
Wow you both look so cool together 😊 happy riding !
Yay! Thank you! 😊
So pleased for you and Sally.
Great review and I wish you many happy miles 😊
I have strong feelings about buying Chinese motorcycles. Last November I bought a Chinese built Voge 300 Rally and I love it. It’s my second bike bought to compliment the 500X I use for touring. The Voge is a really good, really honest bike. It was great value for money but it’s so much better than that… The details are amazing and it performs really well on and off road, really well off road and that’s straight out of the box. No suspension upgrades were needed, the OE tyres are excellent and the Loncin built Kawasaki engine is a delight. If people have a problem with Chinese bikes that’s their problem, for me my Chinese bike is a real star.
Quite a few Voge bikes in Jerez where l am living right now, the 300 & some larger cruiser types. The Spanish are not hung up on names but personally l'll wait a few years.
I bought the Voge too and it's been brilliant. I've tried pretty much everything to destroy her (including drowning) and she soldiers on.
I'm just hoping the 450MT will be better for distance. Swings & Roundabouts.
Voge build BMW engines
@@thebrowns5337 as CFMoto build KTM engines (i own a Voge 300, but i think next year i'll change for a 450MT/700MT, depends on feelings and money :) )
give Kove 450 rally a try if you have a chance
Well done on ur choice , i shall watch with interest so i hope you keep us updated 👍🙂
Oh I definitely shall! Lots of trips to come!
Charlie !! I’m soooo delighted for you. You can hear the excitement in your voice. That’s a stunning blue colour and the exhaust look and sound is awesome. So, she’s a girl - looks like a ‘Maisie’ to me 😉. As it happens, I’m riding over to Swindon tomorrow to Blade Motorcycles to pick up a Triumph Bonneville Bobber. It’s a ‘23 plate with only 800 miles so just like new without having to run it in 😎. I’ve traded in my Ninja650. Hope you had a good time in Spain and I look forward to those vlogs. Your gonna have a great Summer ahead of you on your new ride 😎😎
Sounds like a Bobber bargain ! Ride safe . 😊
1st to the first review 🎉
Congratulations 🎉🎉 😆
It's a beauty ,Charlie! Congrats! You get a lot of bike for your money with that bike. BTW ,they call it the 450 Ibex, here in the States.
I am very pleased to see that, you have taken a big leap forward in your riding journey. I look forward to your next adventures with your growing collection! 👍👍
Thank you 😊
Great review. Really looking forward to more. Health to enjoy 👍🏻
Oh, new bike day. You can't beat it! Wonderful. 👍😊
Congratulations, great looking bike. Love the color, cannot wait to see videos about the adventures you have.
Charlie, very excited for you! Sally looks amazing!!
Thank you, she's not a Sally tho! Not sure how that came about but a name will be chosen soon. 😊
Looks an awesome bike and great value. Well done on the purchase, look forward to more content. 👍
Ha! I said after your other reviews that my money was on the CFMoto. It's a no brainer. There are some brilliant bikes coming from the new manufacturers, Voge, Benelli, and CFMoto. I have a TRK502, and after a lifetime on more large capacity bikes than I can remember, I absolutely love it.
Thank you 😊
Congratulations Charlie looks a nice bike looking forward to see many more vids of you having fun 👍👍👍
I can't wait! 😊
I have mine on order, should be here in albania next week. Will have the first one here. Am super excited!
You won't be disappointed! 😊
Excellent, you can hear the excitement in your voice about this bike and what lays ahead. Good luck
Two wheel rider
Great vid, thank you & Happy New Bike Day. 🎉. This bike will generate lots of interest. Great price point.
Nice bid, I have the blue on back order.Happy safe riding
Great video and the bike really looks and sounds great . looking forward to more videos on this bike.❤🎉
I must be one of the lucky six then as my bike is here too. Unfortunately, due to a snapped wrist after a motorcycle accident I won't be riding mine just yet so you've beaten me to it.
Glad to see you're enjoying your bike, seems these are going to sell really well (if they can produce enough). I've allowed mine to be ridden by another CZcams reviewer (Mark Pulling) so expect another UK review very soon (poss Monday).
Have fun.
You sir are a legend,I watch Marks channel 👍👍
Sorry to hear you can't ride at the moment! The bike will be your recovery reward and you won't be disappointed!
@@restdayrider That's weird. I just subscribed and noticed you went to Woodcote. I've been there a few times myself and on my old BSA. (a 1953 C11) which I'd guess is the same (or very nearly the same) age as the one you rode).
Enjoy your new motorcycle. Looks like they build a good product. Drive what you like. Everyone else ignore. Riding motorcycle is exciting fun and a great stress reliever.
Absolutely. 😊
Looks great and sounds good. Enjoy your new stead! Keep up the good work around. ❤
Nicely done Charlie, I’ve heard good things about this machine. I think Sandy liked it too. Cam xx💐
Thanks 👍
A lot of people are waiting for this as I said on FB my Himmy's gone and CF Moto I bought after Scotland I thought I need more power it manged it so I bought a 650GT, This brand is full of quality... You've picked a good choice well worth the wait there's 7 450 Mt on order at my dealers Enjoy Charlie 👍 looking fwd to a lot more of your vlogs
Thank you. 😊
We’ll you’ve sold it to me what a nice looking bike with a great spread of power and torque 👍
Looks lovely Sally hope you have many great journeys on it. The weather looks lovely to.😀
I was only looking at these yesterday in MAndP in Cardiff. Nice looking bikes.
Thanks for the review , very informative and I believe this could be on my list for my next bike….lightish and enough power for riding around the dales etc. Cheers
Congratulations Charlie. The CFMOTO looks like a lovely bike. You have chosen well.
I look forward to your next adventure.
Beautiful bike Charlie, excellent choice!! Wish you lots of fun with it. Break it in carefully and it will take you everywhere! It's finally better weather so enjoy. Take care and drive safely. Regards, Jan.
Congratulations Charlie! Hope you get a lot of miles and fun on the bike, as you have had on Roger! Keep up the great work! 😀😀🌹🌹
Fingers crossed! 😊
Awesome, looks and sounds great, ready for your next big trip 👍
Sally looks amazing Charlie amazing value. May she always be fun , safe and always get you home. Ron from Ireland.
Wow… Nice one Charlie.. Brilliant film…ABR’s going to be interesting 😄👍
Well done you Charlie, best wishes for the new bike! 👍👍
Congratulationssss!!! Looks brilliant!
Awesome, and love the colour, enjoy
I'm so happy for you. It's such a beautiful & well thought out bike. Have fun....🙂🏁
Thank you. 😊
I love the gear reviews and I sincerely do not care if there are affiliate links or whatever. Your information is always fair and balanced and you don’t appear to hyper inflate any stats compared to any other review I watch. Do more!
I appreciate that! 😊
I used to work with Chris and Gav! Good blokes,
Enjoy the new bike looks great , looking forward to more of your adventures already.😊
Thanks 👍
Congrats on the new bike. It certainly ticks all the right boxes. Look forward to your adventures with her. 🙏
Good luck with the new bike Charlie i look forward to your new adventures
I collected my new bike from Triumph in Shipley last December. Exciting and scary. Your video brought that feeling back. I also bought new for the first time. My bike identifies as "it or bike" hahaha
Hahaha! That's probably for the best these days!
Looks a very nice bike like the colour as well, looking forward to your adventures riding it. Nice throaty exhaust note, nice choice Charlie.
Well done & Congrats! 👏👍🤙🖖✌🤘👌🍻
I don't usually watch unboxing videos. I loved this though. Congratulations on your first new bike 🎉
Blue Bell!
A nod to the day job. Glad you are back.
Yes been following these since they appeared At the shows.. Great looking bike for the price and all the bits the Himmy doesn't with the twin pot being the best paticularly for road use.. Like you mentioned great first bike for confident riding.. Will test ride one soon.. Enjoy the adventure
Wow Charlie, didn’t see that coming!! Wishing you many happy miles together.
Talk about Living The Dream, a great 1st touch review. Looking forward to your future rides on your new wheels. 👍
Thank you 😊
Wishing you many safe and happy miles on your new bike. Enjoy!
I think you've made the right choice. :)
So happy for you.What a great looking bike.You made the right choice.😊
Thank you for sharing the whole experience, I have a deposit on one here in Michigan that is scheduled to arrive late August so this makes me salivate. Enjoy!
You'll love it! 😁
Congratulations Lass ,
Being a Enfield fan I expected to really like the new Himi`450 but after watching your ride on one I was less than sure what it would be like.
A few weeks ago I was able to ride the CF Moto 450 and was immediately impressed with it and was looking forward to your thoughts whenever you eventually got to ride one.
This weekend just passed we had to go down to the city and I was finally able to ride a new Himalayan 450.
I doubt I was 1klm into the test ride on the Himi` and I thought to myself , I reckon if Charlie gets to ride a CF450MT she will probably buy one.
Sat down today to catch up on my YT videos and ..... 🤣👍
I reckon if you put these two machines next to each other without any branding and both painted the same colour and people test rode them back to back the 450MT would be the majority pick.
As for a name , Perhaps "Boudicea" or maybe even "Noodles"
Safe Travels 🙏☺
i like it look forward to your adventures
Really nice Charlie, enjoy!
Love the blue paint colour!
17:09 a twin will be night and day compared to a single you've been use to, and the torque and sound of the cross plane twin is great, hope you enjoy your ride 😊
Congratulations on the new bike. Hope you have years of happy safe riding on her. Selfishly I hope you keep the Royal Enfield as I always enjoy videos featuring that bike and I miss your old Meteor as well, but it does get expensive to garage and maintain multiple bikes. I too have three in the garage and currently shopping for a fourth. Seems we motorcycle enthusiasts always need just one more 🤣.
Congratulations on your new Bike, It looks great.👍
Impressive, all the very best.
I loved this vlog Charlie ❤❤❤❤
that sounds mint, what a beautiful sound they make with the exhaust as standard, CFMOTO on the up
Congratulations on your purchase Charlie. No doubt you will totally enjoy your CF Moto 450 MT on your future Biking Adventure. Stay safe.
Thank you Rab. 😊
Glad the CZcams algorithm showed me your video. I’m between bikes at the moment and the 450 MT looks really interesting. I probably won’t be buying anything until next year so I’m intrigued to see how you get on with it.
I’ve owned a Tracer 900 in the past (never bonded with it), and NC750X (loved it but it wasn’t exactly a thrill a minute) and ridden a few more bikes too. I’m really keen on something smaller capacity but still able to do it all so have been looking at the Triumph Scramber 400X, Himalayan etc.
Happy riding…
Hi! Make sure you subscribe to see how I get on with the bike! 😊
Happy New bike 🏍️🏍️ enjoy it, looks great.
Excellent. Well done!
That was a great review, thanks
You have done a lot of research. They look fantastic they are well built and designed and they sound fantastic. And it seems like they have a little character too. At this stage I would get one if I could part with my Honda
This is my next bike!! Love it enjoy your adventures
Looks good, enjoy your new ride :-)
I watched the Bingley Wheeler ride the 800 he bought one, so great to see others giving CFMoto a chance. We will all find out if they last and there as good as they seem. Ride with care look out for the boxes on wheels that pull out in front of you.
Absolutely.
Well done Charlie, I think you have made a good choice, so long as they are reliable and I can’t imagine they won’t be, I think they’re onto a winner with this bike, everything is definitely in the Goldilocks zone, have fun with it, all the best 👍
Fingers crossed!
Great video. Loved the energy.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hello Charlie, very beautiful bike! I´m happy for you. I´m shure you will be making some nice trips with it and enjoy the riding quality of the CF. 🙂
Haven't seen one in the flesh, it looks and sounds great for the money.
Excellent I'm getting the grey one next week!! ⚡😎🤙🏽
Whoop! 😊
Looks great and brilliant bang for your buck too 😊 sure you'll have many adventures. 😁
Congratulations Charlie it been a while coming…😍
Enjoy & see you on the road somewhere no doubt 🏍️💨. M
Congrats! Got mine a little over a month ago (also blue) and I've already got 2000 km on it. I love it more every time I ride it. 🥰It has everything I need and nothing I don't. The only accessory I will be adding is the crash bars, in case I drop it. I do day-long rides (300-400 km) and it is so comfortable, nimble and easy that I come back not feeling knackered.
Living in Cyprus I have no need for a big engine and would much rather have less weight, as I mostly ride mountain twisties and some dirt roads. She is capable and fun on both and I have no problems keeping up with the bigger bikes in the group. She is fine on the highway too, but I only take those as a last resort. My other bike is a Fantic Caballero 500 which is a lot of fun but also very problematic. Prior to that I owned a CB 500X which was totally wrecked in an accident. Nice bike but not as capable off-road as the MT.
As for the "snatchy" throttle, you can make a big difference if you adjust it to remove the slack. Takes about 2 minutes.
Enjoy your new bike and keep us posted on how it goes. I think you'll love it.
PS: I named mine Baozhai. 😊
That's so good to hear your loving yours 😍
Great choice happy for you
Shes a great bike Charlie, ive had mine nearly a month here in Australia. Had first service already, im loving the light easy to handle feel of the bike . The power is enough to keep me happy as an aging rider. I ordered the higher seat but im thinking i shouldn't have worried about it as the seat in comfy and i can touch the ground, ill try it anyway. Enjoy the new bike congrats.
Good to hear that after a month you're still loving it! 😊
Congratulations and great choice. I’m actually amazed you were able to get one, I would have thought there’d be waiting lists and deposits taken months ago. No wonder there’s so many new Himalayan order cancellations, it looks a far better package overall.
Congrats! Can’t wait till they come to the USA.
I'm going to buy one when they come stateside. Incredibly good looking machine.
Great choice congratulations
Congratulations great bike. I'm looking forward to getting one soon.
I am full of praise for it! 😊
