I had some here who wanted to borrow my quad for a little job , I said yes and flicked it into work mode to keep it safe for him as the 650 is fairly wild in sport and if not used to it but dangerous so flicked it into work mode and away he went , brought it back and left it sitting ,,, I then later in day jumped on it and off I go and came to a bit that’s very very steep but I normaly just fly up it in sport mode, but it’s in work mode and I forget , get near top of this very steep bank and it runs out of steam so I’m stuck flick it into sport mode but she’s going to rear ! I thought I will put it in neutral jump off it will roll down hill on its own , Na it might roll so I will attempt to reverse ….. next thing I’m on ground and it’s heading for me , I get out way and splat , can still hear that noise , new handle bars dash etc etc etc , lucky to still be here really and partly through trying to be safe !! But partly going up a bit that’s to dangerous really.

Sounds like you were lucky! Just goes to show how dangerous every day jobs can be. Doesn't take much to go wrong

Wouldn't be too hard to fit that to a Polaris for example, since it already has the slide in&out style tow bar.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 . . .

I actually asked him how does he know what’s what, his reply was “these are my cows”

AFAIK, CFMoto make engines for KTM motorbikes & they do have an arrangement or part ownership of / by KTM, so that can’t be a bad thing
their motorbikes are gaining a bit of a following & starting to lose the “Chinese junk” tag

Had a good mate killed by a tap on the temple from a rollbar, I can see why manufacturers don't wish to go down that rabbit-hole in an increasingly litigious society.basically just a single pogo stick behind the seat.

On the CF Moto machines, alot of ex quad owners get them as a "cheap demo" into the world of side by sides, and a few quads getting around too.
As someone said upthread the gearchange feels a little bit clunky but you get used to it... better than your overdraft being clunky, just to buy something with a "reputable name", any machine is capable of being a smoke machine
