My friends switched from polaris to CFMOTO 3 year's ago. I was skeptical, but they love it and will never switch back. Definitely seeing more on the trails in Georgia and Florida.
@SublimeNation I am seeing more on the trails here as well. I’d like to get one one day just to test the long term durability. I believe the owner of this one will be coming back each year for a service so I’ll see how that one holds up.
The only problem is if they get to popular they will cost what can am and Polaris cost
Problem is when you try to re-sell them. Good luck.
Love my 600. Best machine ever made
@dozervin1 Don't base a atv purchase on resell. Base it on how much you enjoy the machine. The only atvs I've owned that has kept or even rose in value were my 80s atc's and Odyssey"s.
have owned a polaris, Honda, and Can am, bought my CF moto uforce 1000 three months ago and best decision i have ever made.
Glad to hear you made a good purchase. I haven’t been in the uforce’s yet.
Have a 4 month old 2023 600 touring. Wife and i put 2300 miles on it already. It has performed flawlessly and she loves the comfy seat.
Oh wow you did some riding in those 4 months! Glad to here it’s going good for you.
The model you have in this video is actually the 40hp model, the 2023 ones have the bump to 45 hp. Biggest gripe on mine is the rpms, engine noise, and vibrations. Did some clutching which helped but it does still run higher rpms than other machines but I find you get used to it, and on the trail it kinda seems to make it more fun an sporty to ride lol. I'll take this machine and it's quirks keep my $4000 bucks.
@RobL. Good catch! The CF moto website shows 41hp for the 2022 and 45hp for the 2023 that was my mistake. The little bit I drove this that would be my biggest complaint is the clutching and rpm’s but as you said for $4000 it doesn’t seem that bad.
@@rockspowersports Yea and like I said honestly you get used to it. I have a Sportsman 800 and it seems to run at higher rpms to so maybe I'm used to that as well.
Have a zforce 950 and cforce 600 touring amazing machines and I came from can am
Thank you for your videos. I am going to by my first quad for my b-day next year. I am torn between American made and china. I dont have a lot of money so the savings on the c force catches my attention. Arg decisions decisions. I definitely will keep watching your videos. Thank you
Hike965: Buy a Honda. They are way better than anything china produces. You wont regret it. Plus you are supporting America.
The savings you think you get with the china junk disappears each and every time it needs fixed, and thats if you can get parts
Hello, I am very fan of you, I really love motorbikes quadbikes and snowmobiles, I have a 2009 CFMOTO X6 625 and I really love this quad because it has large racks and a large top case, it has also a manual recoil starter in case of the battery dies, it's not a very reliable machines, got some troubles, but i really love this quad for its utilitarian abilities, Hi, Greetings from Central France ! Long live motorbikes, quads and snowmobiles !
@Moi, Maya Maha & mes Nounours I am glad you are a fan and enjoy the Powersports content. To be honest I have never heard of the cf moto x6 625. CF Moto hasn’t really been very popular in the US until recently. They do seem to make some very nice machines,
Nice video. Thanks for being honest. I also ride a C Force 600. Happy Trails to you
You must be 100 years old if you are calling a black and white video a nice video
I have 2021 600 touring and love it. It has climbed Mt. Washington in NH and has about 500 miles on it. 90% is with my wife on the back and she says its very comfortable, no matter the terrain. Just put in an MSC stage 1 clutch kit, fixed the take off and gear selecting issues. I love ❤️ it.
@Raul Vargas That’s great to hear! I’ve brought my side by side up Mt. Washington a few years ago, good time.
If I bought one of these the first thing I would do is the clutch kit?
@@rockspowersports Yes, just the stage 1 if you are going to keep it stock with regards to wheels/tires. Bigger tires/wheels, upgrade to stage 2. To be clear, that means stage 1 and stage 2. Also, I just took it out for a 25 mile ride and it was great. We parked on the trail, stopped to switch into 4x4 and back, stopped for a drink and to look around, I did notice that twice I had to rock it a little to get it fully into park. This was minor compared to having to do it every time I switched gears, when snow plowing it was so frustrating that I wanted to go back to using the snow blower. I just found out the 2023 have 5 more HP than my 2021.
I just picked up a 2024 600 (not touring) and absolutely love it! Haven't even had it a week and have already gone 175 miles in NH myself. My brother has a Polaris Sportsman 850 that has spent more time being repaired than actually being ridden! Super happy with my purchase!
Hello, can you tell me one thing. Why is temperature bar always over half and jumping around max? on cfmoto's 625 models 2022-23
I do have a 600 in the short version and true timber camo since 2.1/2 years and I love it. The looks, the performance and the suspension !!!
Hi. I see quite a few comments about it being noisier than the competition. Are they too loud for hunting, do you think?
@@mattrickard3716 ...I don´t know if it´s louder than others but yes it is rather loud for sure man! ;-) The new 2024 CForce 850 should be much more quiet!
Ive owned an outlander and sportsman 570 and they were both great machines. But i hurt my shoulder and needed power steering and since it was during covid the only brand in stock was cfmoto. The price was about $1500 less than the other brands and its a very good looking atv. Its now 2 years later and i have 3500km with no problems. My only complaints are its loud and suspension is too stiff , even on the softest settings. I dont know if id buy another one because the prices in Canada are almost the same as can am and polaris and all the dealers have lots in stock now.
USA warranty is 1 year (many things either 30-90 days). Canada warranty is still 5 years.
The channel is growing.
That it is!
I Have a 625 Touring 2022 model. 1500 kms. Great machine, very comfortable, but fuel consumption is enormous. Also have a Honda 420 and consumptin is almost half of cforce. 18lts/100 kms is ok? It is also very noisy.
A hunting buddy bought the 400 last season . Lots of plastic parts break off very easily. The fender flares are put on with those crappy push pins. They are broken already. I guess that explains the lower price point. He's selling it already. Only 300 KMS on it ! Good review.
@Mark Bow The 400 is the cheapest machine they make so I’m wondering if maybe the quality isn’t quite as good on those units.. A lot of manufactures are using those push pins for the plastics, they are easy to remove but don’t hold up to well after years of abuse.
He broke them in one hunting season?
Just bought one and so far I'm very happy with it
Glad to hear!
I have noticed that with most CFMOTO machines, you get A LOT more for your money, me and my family just recently got a CFMOTO UFORCE 1000 side by side and it is AMAZING. CF MOTO is my favorite manufacturer for ATV'S and recommend it to all first-time buyers!
Buy can am, much better
Cf moto will not stand the test of time compared to even a Polaris. Let alone a Yamaha or Honda
@@jessewoody5772 I agree, cf moto also does not have as big of a reputation as Polaris, Honda, etc.
Except CF made a lot of driveline parts for yamaha for years, before they started building full machine. Cforce 500 axles and diffs are same exact units as older rhino lol@jessewoody5772
@@garyenglish9338 I try not to support china as much as I can. You should do the same
I do a lot of trail camping and was considering purchasing one but i noticed the rack capacity and towing capacity was substantially low for the size machine.
My friend has a 2022 500 and loves it for trail riding but uses his 2013 sportsman 500 for work, hauling camping gear and pulling the trailer.
@RG Supreme I must of glanced over those specs because wow your not kidding. The towing capacity says it’s been increased to 1000lbs on the new cf motos which is still about 350lbs less than the competitors and the rack capacity is almost half the amount of Polaris it Can am.
@@rockspowersports and also the service intervals are only 500 miles or 250 for severe duty. That was my buddies biggest complaint with his.
Bought a 1000 blew up in less then 40 miles…..dealer fix it and I’ve had it 2 years now of hard riding and 0 issue….i may of just got a bad one from the gate
I bought a 2019 Polaris Sportsman 570 SP touring and it has had cluth issues and not starting from day one , and dealer works on it and has not fixed it , so buying polaris doesn't mean quality either, and it cost 11,800 , I will never pay that again for any atv , lol
@Tony Lee Sorry to hear that! It’s a lot of money to pay for a machine and not even be able to enjoy it.
It's ashame Polaris moved most of their manufacturing processes from Wisconsin to Mexico. I see Articat suffering from the same fate since both are owned by the same outfit. If you're in the realm of the $11K mark I'd look at a Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki or Yamaha. Don't see CFMOTO'S trying to match up with them......
I have the 600 and honestly I hate the seat I'm 6.3 I wish it was straight I don't like the dip in it. For a shorter person I'm sure it would be fine The only place that's its comfortable is farther back or right up to the tank. Besides that the bike has been amazing.
Yeah I could see it being uncomfortable for someone your height. Have you had yours for a while?
I had a cf moto moose 500 when they first came out it burned to the ground sued them got my money back been on a honda ever since
I own a 550,850xc never broke down 👍
My buddy has a 800 and it’s nice
It is a KTM backed/oriented machine. Which is why they come with a lot of really top tier products off the lot. Winch, LCD screen, excellent suspension EXCELENT!!!, most comfortable seat I have ever experienced, POWER STEERING, very user friendly throttle, immediate engaging 4wd
Ktm??
@@brokejokeratv5851 yes this is KTM subsidiary brand
yepp@@brokejokeratv5851
@@brokejokeratv5851He is referring to the joint venture between CF Moto and KTM. CF Moto, for example makes the engine for the KTM 790 Adventure and assembles the machine in China. In addition, I believe CF Moto has some joint partnership with Yamaha.
Yes they are a partnership @@brokejokeratv5851
Just bought a 23 zforce 500 trail. See how it holds up. Still got my 21 Polaris Ranger 570.
Nice, hopefully it treats you well.
here in Canada there's only about an $800ish difference between 2023 CFMoto and the equivalent new Canam 2023 500/700 models But CFMoto is also giving us a 1 year warranty and 5 year power train warranty. CanAm is inly 6 months. Im pretty torn... CFMoto are also including the winch and alloy rims but for my use I could could take em or leave em... both are very nice machines, its how well either one will hold up that matters most to me..
@Jessie S It’s a hard decision for sure. The Can Ams have a pretty good reliablity history for the most part. Cf moto, I’m not sure.. I have heard good things from most people that buy them. Another down fall to the CF moto is the resale value is not good on a used one, here in the states anyways.
Unless you get an xmr can am doesn’t have a locker and it’s actually 3 wheel drive for the most part the way visco lok works. I loved my can ams but now I’m loving these Cfmoto I have
Buy the can-am hands down
He said junk :D CFMoto is much better than Polaris or Can-Am. Not even close. Much newer technologies.
My biggest fear is the rear CV boots. There is a lot of Logging operation in my area. So sometimes you have to drive over The mess left and My current ATV. I was able to weld on a bash plate to protect the rear CV boots. STICKs are a major issue. The clutch System is annoying. I found Low range wasn't low enough for Crawling on the CF MOTO. They come well equipped for sure. B how are they over time?? An YES the CV TECH clutches are not as Nice as the Yamaha or Suzuki Clutch over time. Even Polaris has a 1000 mile service on Clutches Which is annoying. Nothing is Perfect these days after all.
Alot of logging operations around me as well and Sticks are always very hard on cv boots. I like my old Polaris diesel for that very reason, no cv boots all u-joints in the axles.
I have had no issues with mine it’s a 23 600
I have a 1000 miles on mine. It has not given me any problems
That’s great to hear! I’m hearing more and more positive things from cf moto owners.
The cfmoto line reminds me of bikes from 2010 they seem decent just not as refined as the more expensive brands. Can-am and Polaris are just superior products in every way. But also why they come with such a heavy price tag.
I don’t know man mine is pretty solid. My friend has a 2020 800 with 7000 miles on it and he’s only changed oil and tires so far
LMAO you just called Polaris a SUPERIOR product? You can say you don't like CFmoto, but don't be a liar.
My son in law bought one of these last summer (2022) worked fine for 1100-1200 kilometers then wouldn't start, took it to the dealer and its been there ever since 8 months ago,can't find the problem and cf moto is showing zero support,also there are 3 others there with the same issues....This is in Alberta ca.....I was looking hard and one of these last spring but will never buy this brand now
After 725kms on a 2021 Cforce 800 I parted ways with it. Everything from light failures, coolant system clamps failed on almost every hose, electric actuator failed, front cover for air breather box was manufactured with a flaw, starter issues, solenoid issues, paint flaking off the frame....I could go on and on. Stuff failing that should have not especially with 725 kms on it and my bike looked like new. I avoid mud and water like the plague. They are catching up but not quite there. One of the local automotive/recreational auction houses is full of CFMOTO's with little to no mileage and they are going cheap. Sometimes you get what you pay for.
I’ve never owned one but every time i see one I ask the same question I’ve never seen one with high miles and that’s usually what I judge my 📕 😅
@Upnorth Vlogs I haven’t personally seen them either but on some of the forums I have seen a couple of the side by sides with over 10,000 miles.
There’s plenty with 2-3k miles. But most are newer machines.
@@dateatorjr9671 I’ve never saw one in my area Minnesota I’m not saying they’re bad machines never owned one just never found one with high miles everyone I see has like 200 miles on it and they want to sell it
You'll never find a Polaris with high miles either😅 The bike I'm sitting on my profile pic If you can believe it it's a Arctic Cat 300 With 16000 miles it goes every day around the farm and it's never been apart except for a new wet clutch. I did get a cf600 in 2021 and it now has around 1700 miles I've had no problems yet but only time will tell. The higher RPM does use up the fuel. So far that's been my only real complaint.
A guy posted on a Facebook forum his zforce 950 has 10,000 mile. Another guy commented he had 5,000
Hi guys, CF moto moto bikes are gainin ground in Europe too.
I want one I'm getting the vtwin 1000
Happy with my cforce 500 so far. Could use a little more power but it’s enough to get the job done. Factory plastic skid covers are a joke. They already have the molds why not just make them thicker? I went with iron Baltic hdpe and they are awesome. The no name tires have far exceeded my expectations. They have performed very well in a variety of conditions. Suspension is good until you hit some big stuff, then the budget shocks let you know why it’s a cheaper machine. But I knew that when I bought it. It is a budget machine after all. Overall, it does nearly everything more expensive ones do at 1/3 of the cost. I got a 2 year warranty during their last promotion.
@da teatorjr Glad to hear your Cf moto has treated you well. I’m hearing more good then bad nowadays which is great. Factory skid plates on any brand machine are very thin and should be upgraded in my opinion.
Man. nice but I'll stick with my Sportsman !
I belive we all know after 10 years how they hold up and what value they retain.
I've had CForce800 for 2 years now. Worst purchase I made. I ride in a crew, and everyone has everything under the sun, Can Am, Polaris, Yamaha, Suzuki, Honda, etc. I'm the only one getting towed almost every ride. And yet I baby it, and the other guys go hard sometimes
What kind of issues have you experienced with your Cforce?
@@rockspowersports I posted this up top but will answer as I too had a Cforce 800 XC....After 725kms on a 2021 Cforce 800 I parted ways with it. Everything from light failures, coolant system clamps failed on almost every hose, electric actuator failed, front cover for air breather box was manufactured with a flaw, starter issues, solenoid issues, paint flaking off the frame....I could go on and on.

One of the local automotive/recreational auction houses is full of CFMOTO's with little to no mileage and they are going cheap. Sometimes you get what you pay for. I will add that I had clutch lurching issues and a transmission that I had to fight with to shift - even after it was 'fixed' by the dealer.
Better than Polaris and gonnA be better than can am
If they would change the clutching so it would shift out sooner in the revs, would make it more pleasing to ride. Polaris is bad enough in this respect, but CF is the worst. Otherwise a nice machine.
Absolutely!
Good CFMOTO , But no money no order
I'll keep my 2003 Honda Foreman Rubicon ty very much SMH
Does this one you tested have work mode
@Platinumf250 No this one didn’t have the work mode. I believe that is only available on the side by sides.
2023 has the work mode, it makes the engine feel less aggressive
Totally dominating the market puts polaris to shame
Cope harder with your Chinese garbage
Had zero problems with mine
Awesome glad to hear it! This one’s still going strong as well.
mine won't shift on incline what about yours ? Dealer said that's the way it is
Do you mean down shift when your headed up hill? If your going slow you should use low range but if you have some speed going up hill the CVT should have you in the correct ratio to give you the power needed.
No I mean if you need to shift into reverse while stopped on a incline or hill you can't. And if your going down a slope and need to back out you can't. You have to fight it to shift or even get it to level ground before it will shift. Got into trouble more than once in some boxed canyons here no being unable to back out.
Does it have a foot brake?
Yes these do have a foot brake as well.
Rock I'm sorry but I'm still taking the 2000 Rubicon over all of em.
Have owned every brand made, they are all great when they run and all junk when they break,,and if you drive it hard they all break...that being said just bought two overland 1000 last week, no complaints and no regrets the power is insane,lifted both and upped the tires too 30's ,no clutch kit yet but still Yanks that long wheel base heavy sob nose off the ground with ease
@Keith Belz I’ve been wanting to try out one of the overland 1000’s. They look very well equipped and I bet they have plenty of power!
@@rockspowersports they sure are loaded up from the factory, and the dealership gave us two passengers seat that's 600 dollar each add on as a thank you for buying two.. maybe not the 91 HP of the canam, but 79 HP and way more from the factory extras for literally 6k less,,
My 1000 has the tune, headers, exhaust, and upper engine mount from MSC. The only thing left is the clutch. Brother, it's no joke.
@@shawndale1552 did you notice any difference in power ,,or did it run cooler after the tune,,I'm on the fence over a ECM tune ,,but I know cutting the cat out dropped the heat a bunch
@keithbelz2952 the headers from MSC and the tune made a 12 hp difference. Does definitely help with heat. It will always be hot on the legs no matter what. Definitely alot better than stock, heat wise.
Do you might as well call Honda and Yamaha junk too because it is Chinese stuff too the only thing America has is John Deere Ford Dodge Chevy Arctic cat Polaris what I'm trying to say don't judge
Honda ,Yamaha, Suzuki, and Kawasaki are Japanese. The Japanese are well known for building quality vehicles that last forever.
You can justify your purchase anyway you want buddy. I know for a fact that Honda and Kawasaki has plants in the United States. Kawasaki Mules are completely built in America. Unlike CFMOTO who teamed up with Mexico! Never seen a head to head comparison between CFMOTO and the big three. Which is Honda, Kawasaki and Yamaha! Buy a better machine! Support fellow American workers and NATO Allies. Instead of Communist China! Maybe you can find a Russian ATV that's cheaper next time. Good grief!
Rate your cfmoto 1-10. Reviews before man goes by one
I have over 1000 miles on mine no issues and ride with Can Ams Polaris and Kawasaki. The CF Moto rides more like a Polaris in comfort and hangs with all of them but in my opinion while riding 2 up I would rather climb steep hills on my CF Moto. I love my Atv and when I upgrade it will be another CF Moto
My cf500 is better than my cheaply made Polaris 570
Why would you post a video in black and white?
The video isn’t black and white, I think there might be something wrong on your end.
@@rockspowersports man I just went back and checked and you are 100% correct. That's the only video that has ever done that to me 😂 the first minute was good and then it just went black and white so I scanned through the rest of the video and it was all showing black and white but everything else on my screen had color 🤦 I'm not sure what happened!
I'll stick to my polaris sportsman 500.
Nothing wrong with a Sportsman 500, I’ve owned quite a few.
C.f. moto is a Chinese company with German ingenuity and American know how.
Junk my ass my 600 is 🔥
Buy American!
Why so I can pay more for less?
CF have shit brakes, shit clutches, loose bolts, just re check all torgue, upgrade brake pads,clutch off the hop
Personally, i cannot justify purchasing a CFMOTO. No matter how much cheaper they might be. Rather support manufacturers who have plants in the United States and hire American workers. Communist China isn't a NATO Allie either! IMHO you get a better machine sticking with the big three. Which is Honda, Kawasaki and Yamaha! You justify your purchase decisions anyway you want......
Abit hard for countries where the big three have fled like pansies, because of regulations.
Regulations? Not buying that! The big 3 have had factories in the United States since the early 70's. A Japanese CEO makes 100 times more than their lowest paid employee. Whereas an American CEO makes millions to billions times more than their workers. American workers across the board are getting sold out for cheap labor. Unfortunately, by greedy fellow wealthy elitist Americans! These same individuals who want to eliminate regulations. Like antiquated air break systems on railroad cars. That led to the mess in Palistine, Ohio! To relaxing regulations on utility companies in Texas. Then, the infrastructure freezes, and Texans almost froze to death. I am betting the power company in Maui led to the devastation in that wildfire. Corporations are not citizens! They should not have a vote in politics. Or be allowed to lobby and / or place henchmen in positions of power. Like Joe Munchin, who owns a coal mine. A Donald J. Trump, who enriched himself while adding $8T to the national debt. More than any president in history, from the Republican party who calls themselves fiscally responsible. Facts matter, and so does truth! Also I am a victim of relaxed regulations. Was exposed to asbestos for 7 1/2 weeks, and I will be taking legal action. So I wouldn't cheer for relaxed regulations, especially if you work for a living.......
Don’t forget Suzuki (Built in Georgia). All research I did had The King Quad just a step behind the grizzly. I was able to get an 2022 750 $9800 OTD couldn’t touch a Grizzly at that price. I was tempted to get CForce based on price’ features, and reviews but happy I went with King
@@DougAndHisKingQaud750 Sometimes I forget about Suzuki because they don't build UTV's.
Said by the one (like all of us) who buys Chinese products every single day, where is your wrong seated patriotism there? So if your country commits wrongs its ok but if it's communist China then it's wrong? That's hypocrisy, so better let's get back to compare product quality not ideologies, I doubt the US shines in that department.
Looked and drove this make not a fan. Next stop argo 1000 XRT LE 2 up. This is my new bike Awesome bye again absolutely Hope this helps.
