The review is by a guy called Alan Cathcart from OZ.

You can read the full review on post 12 now.

The reason I find the review of interest because after 67,000 km riding the CFmoto 650 TR-G for the last year all over the EU and back to China.
It was time to move on and I been considered buying the MT.

Due to an error on my part leaving replacing the chain and sprockets hoping I could ride back home to Longkou with only 500 km to go, riding at over 140kmh on the Toll road 2 days ago my luck run out.
The chain or sprocket let go with a big bang, coming to a controlled stop with the chain somewhere up the road lol.

Being on a Toll road knowing Motorbikes are banned left me wondering what is best to do.
Interesting to find out that the breakdown services is free?, but in my case, because I had a Motorbike I need to order a flat back slid bed tow truck.
The police who attended was fine with the fact I was riding on the Toll roads and was happy taking pictures of me and them together.

The plan was to find the closest CF dealer and sort the repairs out.
Due to the fact, the closest dealer was over 60 km away the cost was 1000 RMB.
Arrived at the CF dealer at 10 pm still to find the shop open.

The next day was inspection time when the chain let go it hit the engine case and cracked it causing engine oil to start leaking out.
with the fact, my tyres were needed to be replaced shortly and with all the other bits needed replacing, it was time to think about let's just chop it in for a new MT.
The deal was done and within 2 hours I was back on the road with a brand new MT.

The TR-G was good bike it had a very hard life over the last 67.000 km, but IMO just too many KG.
I was invited to the CFMoto dealer open day the other week and was very surprised to see CFmoto are now manufacturing add-on bits for the MT.

The review guy didn't point out that the Shad Rear backs boxes are just dam to wide IMO and stick out passed the ends of the handlebars by loads.
So I was happy to see CF have made their own brand aluminium slim back boxes to fit the MT.
Problem solved.

In addition, many other new add-ons are being produced by CF for the MT.
Before I leave you with some pictures did you notice the price of the MT with the Shad Boxes on the road price in OZ.?

7500 AUD is 38.500 RMB

With an RRP in China off 44.800 RMB + 7% tax + plate ?

who says we get a good deal here in China.

On the truck ok




No problems look unhappy but was ok.
