Design That Demands Attention
The CFMoto 450SR's design is a head-turner. Its dual LED headlights and animation upon ignition create an immediate impression. The fairing's aerodynamic design, developed with wind tunnel research, provides not only a striking look but also 2KG of downforce at 120km/h. And let's not forget the 5-inch TFT display, offering navigation, shift guidance, and even mobile charging capabilities.

Unleashing the Power
Under the sleek fairing lies an engine that's anything but ordinary. The 270-degree crankshaft parallel twin delivers a maximum power of 34.5 kW(46.2HP) at 10,000 rpm and a torque of 39.3 Nm at 7,750 rpm. The engine is incredibly smooth yet packs a punch that's sure to give you an adrenaline rush. The weight distribution is perfect, ensuring stability even during U-turns and slow maneuvers. With that Brembo brake, it felt so good, good sensitivity and brake bite.
