Pricing
CFMOTO has been eyeing the western market for some time now, and the firm has been operating in Europe for some time now. Several of its models will be making their premiere in the United States, where it just opened a branch. The 700 CL-X Sport, CFMOTO’s sportiest neo-retro motorcycle, will be released shortly in Europe. It’ll set you back 7,699 Euros, or almost $8000 in US dollars.
Specifications
Four valves per cylinder, liquid cooling, electronic fuel injection, and a 693cc parallel-twin engine is powering the 700 CL-X Sport. In the middleweight naked bike class, led by Yamaha’s MT-07 and XSR700, the 180-degree crankshaft parallel-twin engine produces roughly 70 horsepower. The 700 CL-X stands out from the competitors thanks to its high-quality components. Brembo brakes and adjustable suspension are standard on the 700 CL-X when it leaves the factory.
Even the motorcycle’s tech components, like the cruise control and self-canceling turn signals, are amazing. A few features are missing from this vehicle, such as traction control and cornering ABS. More costly bikes, such as the KTM 890 Duke and the Triumph Street Triple 765, better value for money than the 700 CL-X Sport.
