At 'CFMoto Day' in Chengdu, CFMoto launched its mid-weight sport bike, the 500SR, priced at RMB 28,980 in China. The event also marked the domestic debut of the new V4 SR-RR superbike, powered by a 997cc V4 and weighing under 200kg, underscoring the brand's push upmarket.
A V4 that comes in under 200kg could actually be a real weapon on track. If the numbers are legit, that weight will pay off both in corners and on exit. Showing it off at Chengdu's international circuit is a smart move too. Now I want to see how it plays out in actual competition.

Is SR-RR a whole new model line? Can't quite tell just from the name.
If that RMB28,980 500SR ever comes to Japan, it'd sell just fine.
Just a few years ago people wrote them off as cheap knockoffs, now they're legit contenders.
CFMoto already has a domestic V4 debut? Their growth is insane.
If they keep pricing like this, Honda and Yamaha's mid-class lineups are gonna feel the pressure.
RMB28,980 sounds cheap converted to yen, but that's the domestic China price, so not really comparable.
A 997cc V4 under 200kg is a genuinely impressive spec on paper.
