Re: Chinese bikes?
TBH i have never really checked, when the gauge gets to around 1/4 tank i will just top it up with a tenners worth, but according to figures it should be good for around 100/gal,yes she is a big girl
Re: Chinese bikes?
Bit of tinkering today on my CFMoto 650 MT, new engine bars arrived, they are standard on the new version but fit my my model year. I already upgraded to the taller screen and hand guards and now these are available as a part item......
Was due to be in France on the 1st June which naturally got cancelled so consoled myself a bit by some fettling

Have you had any problems with it?
How many miles have you done?
Re: Chinese bikes?
Hi Tink, fast approaching 4000 miles, no problems at all, I've tweaked a few things like the screen, hand guards and got the lower seat, every time I review other bikes and their respective price tags I still come back to this all rounder and think no need to change, loving it

Re: Chinese bikes?
Now available with 4 years warranty, interest free credit and whole range of bits fitted as standard.
Looks ready to go, straight from the crate.
Dealerships look thin on the ground, so do wonder what the warranty is worth.
Might take the MT650 out for a test ride. Just because they offer that and - most importantly - the 'MT' stands for my initials, as the main designer of the bike!

Re: Chinese bikes?
I put a couple of used bikes on Ebay watch last week seeing as it was my birthday . One evening I put a cheeky last minute bid in and won a Chinese built Benelli 500 twin. 450 mile round trip in the van to collect it today and it's a cracking bike.
Not much plastic on it (metal tank) so slightly heavy but solid built. Led's, crash bars, twin discs, fat bars, adjustable levers, heated grips, usd forks etc etc all for less than the PCP deposit on a BMW
