Hey Flat it's me Balbino from the z900 forums. That is a good looking bike you have there. I hope we really like these new bike brands for us. I have my oil level fixed. It took about 200 squirts from a spray bottle nozzle in the oil fill hole into a container. LOL. I see you put the sidestand foot on your bike. I cannot do that because I actually wish my sidestand was a 1/4 inch shorter. A 1/4 inch higher and a stiff breeze may blow it over. I've put a little extra spring pre-load on the back shock to maybe raise it up a little to help.  It's not bad just not as much lean as I'm used to.

200 squirts... sounds like some hand muscle cramps going on there, lol. Good for CFMOTO in making the addendum in Owner's Manual. That could have cost them a bundle in unnecessary warranty work.

Yah, new motorcycles to the U.S. Not sure what to expect. So far, I'm okay being a CFMOTO lab rat. Not many miles yet. Need to ride.... (where's the mc rider emoji?)

I had my fingers crossed on this side stand foot. For 10 bucks I wasn't expecting much. On the Z, I used an SW-Motech (50 bucks) which made it stand up considerably straighter... didn't like it that much. This foot on the CLX Sport straightened up the bike only a little bit, not nearly as much as the one on the Z. And it sits flatter on a hard surface than the SW-Motech did.

Although the style is not for me, I do like the fit and finish of the details. I looked at some new bikes in a dealer I visited recently and do like them, but I still miss my 650TK after an accident about two years ago. Still riding the 2015 V5 and 2013 CF500 quad.
