The moment you see the CFMoto 450SR for the first time, your eyes will be riveted. Its design is exactly like the sharp, aggressive, and race-inspired sports bike every young person dreams of. It has everything a modern supersport bike should have—a sharp-edged full fairing, slash-cut headlights, and a high-raised tail section that defines its stance on the racetrack. Whether parked on the road or cruising, this bike looks stunning from every angle. It’s clear that CFMoto has spared no effort in terms of design, and it looks no less than any of its rivals. This is a bike that will make you feel like a MotoGP racer the moment you get on it.

Engine and Performance

A sports bike’s true identity lies in its engine, and the 450SR delivers in this regard. It features a 450cc, liquid-cooled, twin-cylinder engine. You might be wondering, what’s the point of a twin-cylinder? Well, the advantage is that this engine not only delivers smooth performance, but also has a sweet and sporty sound. This engine produces approximately 50 bhp of power and 39 Nm of torque. These figures indicate that this bike is significantly more powerful than all its competitors. It’ll glide easily through city traffic, but once you take it to the highway, it unleashes its magic. Overtaking becomes a breeze, and its top speed will make you feel like a true sports bike. This engine, paired with a 6-speed gearbox, makes for a great pairing.

Suspension and Braking

A strong engine is just as important for handling high speeds as a good suspension and braking system. The CFMoto 450SR is no slouch on this front either. It features a USD (upside-down) fork at the front, which is not only lightweight but also provides better handling. At the rear, there’s a monoshock suspension with pre-load adjustment, which means you can adjust the suspension to suit your riding style. Braking duties include large disc brakes at both the front and rear. For safety, it also features dual-channel ABS, giving you confidence to brake in any situation, whether wet or dry.

Features and Technology

These days, bikes are purchased not only for their performance but also for their features. The CFMoto 450SR excels in this regard. It features a large, fully digital instrument cluster that not only displays all important information clearly but also offers mobile connectivity. Furthermore, all the lights are equipped with LED technology, which improves nighttime visibility and enhances the bike’s appearance. Premium features like a slipper clutch are also available, which reduces the chance of the rear wheel locking up during downshifting and provides a smooth riding experience.
