It’s funny because Peter Egan was recently on RevZilla’s podcast and he’s an older rider (his words) and he has a Himalayan. He said “as you get older it gets harder and harder to ride these big bikes. I currently have a royal Enfield Himalayan and it’s perfect for what I need”. I think this bike is going to really shake the industry because they are listening to what people want and CFmoto has the money to build a great bike. I’ll probably pick one up because I love my 450ss. Great review man🤙🏼
Man, such a good review. Can't watch the "western" guys who need 150 hp, Race suspension and cruise control..........And then u go at the very end and say:"entry level". I am 55, been riding all my life, live now in Indonesia, have 5 bikes from sweet 150s, Hunter 350, Rally 300....This MT 450 is it for a lighter, smaller displacement, dirt capable adv bike.
Exactly! I am riding my Himalayan 411 with guys that ride T7s, GSs and Tuaregs. And guess what, I go everywhere they do off road and even further. The only place where they have me is on open straights, and then they brag how powerful their bike is and how that is important 😂 I am in the market now for something just a bit more powerful for very fast roads here in UAE and to cope better with sand riding than my old 411. So am checking this out and new Himalayan 450. And again with any of those, I will outperform those guys on double or triple the power.
I like watching autodeal and motodeal but please use the proper metric system that we use here in the PH, your market are Filipinos! Stop using pounds and instead use kilos. Hindi yung lagi niyo pa pinag co convert viewers niyo.
I was about to comment exactly that now, the Transalp 750 is not as good on offroad as the T700 but it does everything T700 does and is still good on the road
Was about to say that, but I have zero experience with it, unlike the bikes I mentioned, plus it’s more of a tourer than something that’s as offroad capable as the T7
Transalp 750 is a half cooked overpriced trying hard adventure bike. You buy it expensive but you need to spend more for the setup if you want it to be a real adventure bike.
for sure, a much superior bike overall. But not as good looking as the Triumph if you ask me. I've placed an order btw, my 450mt should arrive by the 5th of May🙃
Think about it, they all got selected for a free holiday at a beautiful location plus get access to a bike that will give them high value content for CZcams/fb/insta. It makes sense they don’t say anything bad, cfmoto is up and coming in the market and they don’t want to be blacklisted from future bike launches. It’s just the way it goes these days.
Bat kayo gumagamit ng pounds? Mga pinoy kayo nasa lupa ng filipino tas pounds ginagamit nyo? Wag try hard mag cater sa USA karamihan dito fan mo is filipino
Divide it into 2.2 simple conversion dinamay mo pa buong pilipino at bansa mo. eh ikaw to absent sa classroom niyo dati. Wala naman kami problema sa lbs,kg cm,mm,ft,yard,mil,or km. Ikaw lang ata may issue boss zenxgwapo. Mas mahirap pa mag convert ng pera sa totoo lang.haha
I think CFMOTO could have done a better headlight design… The clc, sr and nk have great looking headlights But on this MT, mannn… Am I the only who thinks that these headlights look like a cyclops with nasal cannula
They build engines for KTM. Their current ATVs and side by side machines have very good reliability. The 450cc engine has been out for some years now. I have their little Papio xo1, very good build quality, zero issues for now and packed with nice features.
That issue is still of course on, but personally for my need is the best option to take a risk if any, for cca half price of Tenere and others , even in my country there is 5 years warranty. What else I could wish for? I'm not Tarres.....It'sold for me.

It’s entry level in the sense, you don’t need to be a great rider to truly enjoy it and max it out

It's because we're fat bastards 😂
To be honest, im torn with RE Himalayan 450 vs CF Moto 450. I really need this review 👊
Well the RE gets torned away too. Have not u watched the video of new re himalyan chassis snapped out😅😅😅
I hope they bring this bike to Brazil too
Present Sir Jinno🙋
Need to compare against the RE Himalayan 450 and not the 411.
Yes
I love the sand drawing Jinno, very visual 😅
Wow I like it how you put cf 450 mt on that line
Ganda!❤
Just a thing I noticed on launch - you cannot turn off abs when hazard lights are on. I learned that the hard way :D
@Jinno, with your own money, this or a CB500X?
Solid worth to buy
Motodeal, why 3 weeks + late ang posting ng review niyo dito..
Very unfortunate editing schedule issues
One day, I'll get one.
Do you have a thing against Suzuki, didn't mention one model in your lineup. V-strom 250, 650, 800 and 1050
Bro forgot Honda nx500 😕

A QUESTION FOR EVERYONE:
CFMOTO 450MT or TRIUMPH SCRAMBLER 400X
for daily(?), weekend warrior, for keeps bike
Both are great, really comes down to styling…. For road use maybe the triumph, for more offroad, MT has a slight edge
Sir jinno, what helmet was that? Tyia and more power
I used a Troy Lee helmet (off white color) in the beginning, the yellow one is an HJC, which I leave in Palawan.
6:00 The sweet spot is Honda Transalp 750 :D
I was about to comment exactly that now, the Transalp 750 is not as good on offroad as the T700 but it does everything T700 does and is still good on the road
@@LakayForce fugly headlight, I wish the headlight was more like africa twin than 500x :(
Was about to say that, but I have zero experience with it, unlike the bikes I mentioned, plus it’s more of a tourer than something that’s as offroad capable as the T7
Transalp 750 is a half cooked overpriced trying hard adventure bike. You buy it expensive but you need to spend more for the setup if you want it to be a real adventure bike.
@@LakayForce Transalp is something you can ride in a DGR-ish occassions, the Tenere is more tacticool
May I ask how tall r u in centimetres? I’m 160cm
which is better, scram 411 or this one?
MT
Is this better than the triumph scrambler?
for sure, a much superior bike overall. But not as good looking as the Triumph if you ask me. I've placed an order btw, my 450mt should arrive by the 5th of May🙃
Different bike for different type of riders, both are great
truimph is for road dominated ride and better looking
thanks for the input guys
Seems like none of the reviews from the launch have anything bad to say about the bike
Think about it, they all got selected for a free holiday at a beautiful location plus get access to a bike that will give them high value content for CZcams/fb/insta.

@@slakk5093maybe the bikes is just that good
@@slakk5093 Yeah, that was exactly my point :)
@@JRUF40 unlikely
@@slakk5093It's more likely than you think. Even the most negative thing I heard about it was it's power+ height
on paper specs are impressive, but the design, they just copy and pasted the tenere
Bat kayo gumagamit ng pounds? Mga pinoy kayo nasa lupa ng filipino tas pounds ginagamit nyo? Wag try hard mag cater sa USA karamihan dito fan mo is filipino
Many people in the Philippines use lbs to measure their weight, kg was used to measure the bike.
Bakit di pwde?

Let's discuss: CFMoto, a reliable Chinese brand. Yes or no?
They build engines for KTM. Their current ATVs and side by side machines have very good reliability. The 450cc engine has been out for some years now. I have their little Papio xo1, very good build quality, zero issues for now and packed with nice features.
That issue is still of course on, but personally for my need is the best option to take a risk if any, for cca half price of Tenere and others , even in my country there is 5 years warranty. What else I could wish for? I'm not Tarres.....It'sold for me.
Just look at the other 3 variants with the same engine that has been out for years now
The newer models are of great quality, they’ve learned a lot from the deals with KTM and Yamaha
100%. I already owned three CFMoto bikes. Had no problems whatsoever
Cheap junk. Looks kinda neat, thought.
