I Was Wrong or
« on: August 23, 2022, 08:58:30 AM »
I'm able to admit when I'm wrong.  The CFmoto brand is a legitimate contender.  This wasn't the case not even 10yrs ago.  I'm eating crow and it feels good...haha.

Long story short...I guide in the backcountry (powersports) and have an extensive background in powersports.  Had the opportunity of riding a CForce 600 this summer and was impressed but not sold.  Fast forward and a good friend of mine who was my dealer rep for many years.....moved to CF Moto.  I was baffled.  He offered up his personal CForce 600 for me to try during one of my guiding trips.  4 days of abuse in the remote north rockies of BC guiding a large group (10 units).  One of the trails is considered the toughest in north america.  The quad not only faired well, it exceled.  It did better than we all expected and trust me, not one of us expected much.  The winch was pulled out once in the 4 days.  Sorry, 3 times but the other two times were pulling out others.  This was in bone stock format.  Not a person in the group was throwing out compliments before the trip started.  I was the abuse of much ribbin...lol.  NO ONE was ribbin afterwards and in fact all were thoroughly impressed.  I should note....this group isn't a slouch in the offroad world..

I'm sold.  I love this quad.  CFMoto is an absolute contender and when it comes to value, they're at the top of the pile.  Without a doubt.

Kudos to CFMoto for continuing to push.  For taking it serious.  Proud to have one in the garage.

Some vids of it in action:

Vid of our trail.  Ostacruiser's vids are pretty lengthy but highly entertaining:

I saw that video on Ostacruiser. Looks like a great time and the 600 did great. I think Cfmoto surprises a lot of people.

Great video's
6 of us, with our own machines, went to South River Ontario, near North Bay last fall and stayed with a ATV guide/outfitter. He has mostly CF Moto machines for folks to rent and a few Yamaha's. He took us on some pretty nasty trails with muddy and deep water holes. What was nice to hear from him was that he said he has to fix the Yamaha's way more than the CF Moto's

I do have to admit I was suspect of buying a CF but not anymore. Long term riding will tell the story but having folks that ride CF everyday and giving good feedback makes me feel good about my purchase.

I took the z500 out to trail over the weekend and had a few people (again) comment on the ride beforehand wondering how it will perform only to be impressed that it's doing everything and going anywhere the larger units are.  This is now the second time I've chosen to take the CFMoto instead of my RZR with ZERO regrets.  The wife should have a great time on it here in a couple weeks at a yearly local (large for here) off-road trail weekend event.
