Hell yeah dude!!! they're great underappreciated machines, built in the US too.... and they use a lot of the same parts as Can-Am, etc.... (i found that out just doing maintenance and mods) I actually had some spare oil filters left over from my old Can-am 800R and they were the exact ones that my CF 800 took hahah. But everyone i know that has one has loved them once they took the plunge, myself included.
Are they built in the US? I thought I read that they were built overseas.

I believe they are made in China. I read an article recently about CFMoto dealers and US manufacturers such as Polaris lobbying about unfair tariffs in the trade agreement. US govt proposing to lower tariffs on the CFMoto. Polaris is pissed off some of their parts and materials come from China with higher tariffs than the CFmoto finished machines making their manufacturing costs higher and creating an unfair advantage to CFmoto.

Correct but they are also built in the US. they have a plant in Minneapolis, MN, and in 2017 they opened a new one in Plymouth, MN. So designed overseas, but a lot of the ones here are built here.

They’ve been one of “the big names” overseas for ever, and started showing up here in like 2015 or so… at least that’s when they caught my eye on lots… and after I got mine I started seeing a few more on the trails. (Maybe because I was looking more haha)

Only once did I have an unscheduled alignment. It was when I wanted to test my coil overs and jumped the center of a round about.

Coil overs worked!

My one time ever alignment was for something somewhat similar, but not nearly as fun. Smallish pothole that was barely noticeable but really deep on a major highway. Hit the sucker at 72mph, thought my left front shock exploded lol
