got a mate who's on his 2nd 450, changed at 2 yr old with 8500 miles on for £2300.
My 700 grizzly with 5000 miles was 2 in October and dealer wanted £5200.
Worth a damn close look in my opinion??

But when it comes down to reliability, is there any real world tests? Or is everyone afraid to keep them when warranty expires?

I've got no intention of getting anything other than a Honda unless there's good reason but all the firms had to start somewhere.
Sounds high, just swapped a kodiak 700 at 2 1/2 years and 8000 miles for another at 3k from Carrs.

Horses for courses I suppose. I'd have a look at one as a second bike or for tottering around checking stock in the summer. But don't think I'd trust one to do 1000 hours a year

Personally I've no idea what that is new, or any make tbh, but from what I've seen s/h quads are mad money.

Since the big 4 Japanese manufacturers, Polaris & CanAm have pulled out of the Australian quad market, CFMoto is about the only one left that you can buy new here. They seem to be getting a fairly good reputation with their quads & are selling a few side by sides based on that
I don’t think they are a bad thing

What’s the reason for them pulling out the Australian market?

requirements for them to be fitted with roll over protection devices. They all refused to comply for a relatively small market, but CFMoto decided they would do it

basically just a single pogo stick behind the seat.
I think it’s more the Australian distributor, than out of the factory. The other brands could have done it also, but didn’t want to . . .

Looks a great idea but just wonder how effective it is when designed to flex backwards.
