Just hearing '500cc inline-four' wakes up my old memories of high-revving multis. I get why they unveiled it on a circuit too. If the bones can properly use all 78ps up in the high revs, this ought to be a serious blast on a mini circuit. The question is whether it can hold up to genuine sport riding. That's something I want to verify for myself out there.

^ Exactly, at this price even if it breaks you can just shrug it off, which is actually its strength.

A 4-cylinder making 78hp for 600,000 yen is honestly broken. Japanese bikes in this class cost almost double.

Even with similar specs, Japanese brands still lead on build quality and after-sales support. Hope this doesn't turn into a case of buying cheap and paying twice.

Used to think Chinese bikes were a gamble, but they've come this far. Times sure change.

78ps means it's a genuinely high-revving design. What's the rpm for peak torque and peak power?

If you can experience an inline-four for 600,000 yen, that's genuinely appealing. Sounds like a good first bike for a young rider.

Cheap is great, but the real question is how many years it lasts. Still can't fully trust CFMoto's durability.
