    Anybody own one? I’m looking at the 800 Zforce trail. Some nice features that are standard.
    It lists for 11,000k.

    From everything I’ve read online and talking to people on the trails with them, they’re a killer machine for the price. Only input I have is I wouldn’t lock yourself into a 50″ machine unless you specifically plan on running Class 1 trails. The suspension is severely limited with 50″ SXS’s. I wish MN allowed wider machines, I would trade my 64″ in without a question for a 72″.

    A relative of mine has a CfMoto sXs although I don’t remember the exact model (800 I think?). If I remember right they’ve had it for 3-4 years now and had one minor issue taken care of under warranty without any hassle. They’ve been very happy with theirs

    Friend of mine had one and it was always broken. But this was oh 5 or 6 years ago now. Maybe they have improved

    Thanks guys!
    Anytime Werm! I’m gonna go o Baxter tomorrow & check them out.
    My neighbor came over last night for some beers and drove his new Ranger over. Its loaded, power windows, ac & heat, all trails available through GPS, crazy. $25,000. I’d rather buy a classic car for that price. waytogo

    if your planning on using this for trail riding beware those really narrow machines can tip over very easy with 2 people in them. can am makes a trail model also and i was talking to a mechanic at one of the dealers and he told me most them come back rolled over and smashed.

    Dont do it. If you ride on the trails.. good chance you’ll end up on your roof. Lots of good mainstream SxS out there for 11k.

    Last year this time of year… my Polaris Dealer was selling new 2019 Ranger XP 1000s for $12,999.

    Everything is up a couple thousand this year due to the “covid 19 outdoor recreation purchasing craze”

    my good friend bought a cfmoto and has lots of mechanical issues with it.
    He wrenches on it as often as he rides it.

    Might be a lemon and might be common. I dont know much about this brand

    Most of the trails around me will accommodate wider ones. I think I’ll stick to a Can Am or Polaris. Also the CFMOTO are made in China. I’m making a strong effort to keep my money away from there.

    Keep in mind most Can-Am and Polaris machines are made in Mexico, not sure if that concerns you.

    That being said, I’m on my second Can-Am SXS and love them. My dad is also upgrading this year to another Can-Am Defender Max.

    We ride with Hondas (Talon and Rancher), Can-Am’s (Mavericks, Commanders, Defenders and a DS) and a RZR. Guess which one has been towed to the parking lot and which ones haven’t…

    Brothers in Baxter carries pretty much every brand. Good place to compare. I did know about the manufacturing in Mexico which I’m okay with, mainly focusing on China.

    I appreciate all the input!
