It's the only reason I bought a CFMoto and I have been more than satisfied. He is their number one dealer in Canada. Also their quads are quite nice as well. Maybe it was said earlier...but what tech is a cfmoto based off of? Honda? Zuk? Kawi? I know pantera was yami....and Odes was Honda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 2 cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like a RZR but that as close to copying another as it gets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 The vtwin motor tells me its probably based off a kawi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what I did, then you will. I also have a Suzuki King quad, the ride does not compare to the CFMoto quad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave, These things have come a longs ways since the junk that used to come out of China. Plus it made a great birthday gift for a 14 year old. I chuckle at the brand loyalty chaps. http://www.atv.com/specs/cfmoto/sport-utv/2016/zforce/800-eps.html http://www.atv.com/specs/can-am/sport-utv/2016/maverick/1000r-x-mr.html Edited August 7, 2016 by ArcticCrusher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the major differences is hp....cfmoto is 65 and mav is 101...many more major but it doesnt matter really As for being brand loyal....i ride what seems to hold up best for the type of riding we do....lots have tried other brands ...but always comeback to can am when it comes to quads....razrs and mavs or commanders are where its at for sxs's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CFMoto's are rated quite well in the sxs class compared to the rest. They are good machines and hold up well and great value today. We ride with the RZR's and Can-Am's and there is absolutely nothing they can do that these can't. The main negative is lack of dealer support and poor re-sale, however that is not an issue for me.
