    I own the same 22 650nk. Bought it for 3999 US dollars! The truth is, Japan is selling their bikes for way more (maybe double) and it used to be that when you bought a Japanese bike in America, it was either built in Japan or America. Now they're built all over God's green earth. So I won't worry about brand names anymore. Cnc manufacturing has allowed good bikes to be built anywhere you can get good steel.

    This bike came 4th at the TT once so can't be a bad bike at all, albeit it had some mods but was the same engine and chassis etc though. Bit of a bargain price and as you say, perfect first big bike..

    I really like the look of this bike, & even though its a bit of a cobbled together affair it's just amazing value. Ive heard reviewers (& read comments) complaining that it's too heavy & its got limited power, but if the frame is solid thats no issue if you like to manhandle a bike & 60hp is plenty for having fun on our roads. And i like a bit of heft, it makes a bike feel smoother & more planted.
    As for the question of your vlogs, like the riding part more cos, even though you can't make a purchasing decision based on someone else's experience, its always enjoyable hearing their opinions as they're riding, particularly when they go falsetto! 😅 👍

    • @GillyBikes
      @GillyBikes  Před měsícem +1

      Thanks for the feedback. I had loads of fun on this. It’s didn’t feel heavy. Did lack power compared to the 800nk that I’ve been on. But it’s certainly enough to have fun on.

    • @bobritter7197
      @bobritter7197 Před měsícem

      @GillyBikes the 800 is next gen by comparison. Saw a review of the new 450 nk earlier, that looks amazing too. It'd probably give that 650 a run for it's money.

    My only concern would be the relatively small dealer network. Not sure i fancy having a warranty issue when the nearest cfmoto dealer is 80 mile’s away. If you are a beginner you need a dealer on your doorstep for support

    I reckon they have got these modern bikes totally out of proportion . They look like they have been designed by IT & gamer nerds . The rear pad on the seat is up in the air leaving the rear wheel stuck out ,requiring that cheap tacky grotesque poor excuse for a rear mudguard come number plate & light bracket . They didn’t seem to be designing modern naked street bikes to be owned & ridden by humans any more .
