God I regret this thing and boy I tried to like it. 13 hours in the saddle about 600km.

The info on the TFT is messed up.

Sometimes it tells me no fuel some times it tells me I have fuel
Sometimes it tells me there is not sufficient oil in it
Sometimes the temp doesn't display at all

It gets horrible fuel mileage estimated 20km/L when my Vstrom from 2008 gets 26km/l and RE Int650 get about 25km/L

The heat on this bike is just not normal I literally feel like I am in a Sauna after 10 minutes.  >:(

This thing is a POS.

2.5 Months for a little 20 dollar part.

The dealer is so far not my favorite party. CFMoto support in Canada sucks.

I ended up bitching and complaining they extended my warranty because the bike was sitting in the shop so long.


Still heats up like mad. I am not a fan of this bike.

Yeah, it gets hot and my TFT does the exact same thing. I don't think they'll be able to fix the heat. My mileage varies between 40 - 45mpg and that is mostly at +80mph. I've put about 6K miles on the bike. It's a commuter bike and I ride 120 mile round trips four days a week. I need to change my oil this weekend. I bought a box of 4 oil filters on Aliexpress for $30. You just have to give it about a month to get them so order ahead. Using Aliexpress shop for the CF Moto 650MT.

Sorry to hear your tale. My NY dealer said the part I need wasn't in stock in hte US to fix an issue with my CL-X Heritage so I went online. First I placed and online orders from France and Poland with no problem. It's only been a few days so nothings arrived yet. Romania and a few other Europena countries won't let you place an order to the US.

Then I called CFMOTO Canada and a very nice woman said the part was in stock in Canada but it was against their policy to ship to the US but she said I should try calling some local dealers who might not mind breaking the rules. On my 3rd call I found a dealer who said he would since it was a small part not requiring a big box that might raise flags. I told him otherwise I'd have to go get a passport and ride or drive the 17 hours round trip to pick it up myself. The part was only CAD$65 or US$47.70 so I told him to order me 2 and bill me up to US$250 to cover tax, duty and shipping and get himself a really nice bottle of whatever he drinks.

Within 20 minutes he sent me an invoice for $215 and said I should have them in a week or two. Maybe you should try calling around!

I can't deny I'm disappointed over the lack of readily available parts and accessories as the whole world is suffering from pandemic related supply issues, but I'm definitely not pissed off because I haven't been left in the dark by my local dealer or CFMOTO and I can still ride it.

Just not on days warmer than 40°, in 6th gear, with the cruise control on at speeds above 65mph for more than 15-20 miles before the gear indicator starts switching from 1 to 6 and disengages the cruise control!
2nd set of Pirellis and over 7,700 miles since October 14th over 160 hours with an average speed of of only 41mph on mostly back country winding twisty roads in Catskills portion of the Appalachian Mountains Upstate New York State.
