650 Adventura / Firts ride of the year
March 07, 2024, 03:01:31 PM
Hey everyone,  did my first ride of the year on my 2022 ADVentura.  I missed the ride.  Anyone else get out recently?  It was +6c yesterday but today, with the wind...its ZERO so no ride today.
I have just over 9600 km and I got it last year.  I swapped out the tires to Shinko 705s as most of the roads where I live are light gravel.

650 Adventura / Disappearing oil
July 08, 2023, 01:27:52 PM
Hey everyone, so I just got back from a 1400 km trip. It was an amazing trip and the bike did extremely well. (2022 650 ADVentura).  Well I say that but half way through my trip, checking my oil, I noticed that I had none(?).  I had to add 500 ml to get it to a point it would register in my oil check window. Has anyone come across this before? 
I am always diligent about checking the oil and it had always been just above the 1/2 mark in my window.  After I returned home I checked again and all is well.
Disappearing oil is an oddity for sure.  No oil in my exhaust and no weeping anywhere on the motor.  Can anyone help?

Looking forward to your responses/ideas.  Oh, it was extremely hot on the first half of my trip, talking 37-40 c with the humidex

Hey there, so when I bought my bike (2022 650 ADVentura) it had 1100 km on it, it now has a little under 2200!
The ride so far on the bike is great.  Had to adjust the front rebound a bit but other than that, no issues.  A lot of people are saying that the bike and cockpit area get suana hot.  I have not found that at all.  Last night I went for a jaunt and the bike temp never got above the 3rd bar.  No heat issues.  The fuel economy is outstanding. Computer says it is doing 4.4L/100 km.  I used 1 bar of fuel for over 100 km ride last night.
I have been on HWY 17 from Sudbury area to Sault Ste Marie and on some of the minor HWYs in the Algoma area (638 and 129) as well as back roads.  Having a blast!  I will get some pics uploaded soon.  Unfortunatley it is to rain this weekend with a high of 15c so I will try to get out.  Fingers crossed!

Hey everyone!  I have a 2022 CFMoto 650 ADVentura.  Like my name says, I am a first time rider, well first time since 1996.  The pics aren't the best but once it actually is nice enough to ride consistently, I will post a better pic.  I bought it used and it came with the crash bar and the battery slave connection.  I have taken it out twice so far and am loving it
