Title: CFMoto 550CL-C Cruiser
Post by ThumperPaul on 03/28/26 at 06:58:19

I’m not sure I’d label it a cruiser, but it’s pretty cool. Looks more like a standard or cafe to me. It’s not available yet, but it’s a pretty slick entrant into the popular “500cc class”. What do guys think?

I think it looks stupid. It looks very bulky with lots of plastic and crap mudguards. The wheels also look like nuts.
That said I expect it will be very reliable and efficient, it's Chinese after all !

I see Belt Drive and Tubeless Wheels , It looks like the Honda 500 (472cc) Chain Drive is in big trouble ! I personally have a problem with the big Radiator ... but the Honda has one too ... Honda also is going to have a BIGGER PRICE Too !

I think Kawasaki has one too ? But CF Moto is price Smart ! ;)

Its great to see medium size BIKES making a return ! :) :)
Seems to me that 50 HP on 450 pounds (or less) of bike is a Double "SWEET SPOT" !!

I filled my Interceptor up with fuel today and it averaged 66.4mpg ... it has done up to 74mpg ... but I've got some new mufflers that needed to be heard a few times. ::)

My vote is : I think the CFMoto is a Cruiser !
