A review of my 2016 CFMOTO CFORCE 500 HO.
Pros:
Included features like a winch, alloy wheels, hand protectors, two up seating and a trailer wiring harness. There is a great user forum out there for CFMOTO owners. http://www.cfmoto-forum.com
Cons:
Sits too low, exhaust blows downward and kicks up dust, OIl cover panel is fragile and breaks, fit and finish not as polished like the main stream brands, (the selling dealer pointed this out to me) lack of accessories available for this ATV.
Concerns:
While CFMOTO is an up and coming company in other parts of the world it isn't quite ready in the United States although they have improved since I first bought this one in April of last year.
If you happen to get a 2016 of this model make sure the throttle is smooth up and down the RPM range. Mine would drop off abruptly below 4000 RPM. Check for oil in the air filter box and I had a hot start issue with mine. Also the oil filter cover broke on mine. The dealer did it servicing it. There is a new design in the works.
Again I am a fussy individual. I drove the dealer and company nuts. If I keep it I do not know what the future will bring but I have bought six ATVs in the recent past and did not have any issues with those ATVs
