I owned Polaris 01 sportsman was tuff machine I had 07 sportsman 800 was pos
I am in market to buy a new machine I was think Yamaha or Kawasaki 10k easy
I came across cfmoto I was thinking buying 2021 600 or 800 I told some buddys said OMG stay away those are China made junk fall apart one buddy says I know a guy that needed full engine rebuilt at 300 miles

How good are they how good are the engines do they hold up for trail riding I know people say can't compare to Yamaha Honda extra machines I am wondering why can't you.

All I will say is anyone can destroy an engine in under 500 miles or get one to last many thousands...even Chinese engines. No, CFMs are not yet at the longevity level of Yamaha, Honda, Kawasaki or even Polaris or Can Am. But they are closer then they have ever been. If you are an average rider that takes care of their machine and doesn't mind little things that need replaced, then CFM may well be something you want to look at...especially the 800s. But if you are like many others out there that abuse their machines daily and practice differed maintenance, then better take CFM off your list.
