[Moto] CF Moto 700CL-X Sport 2022

[#Wittels-]

CFMoto expands its range with this Sport version of its already well-known CFMoto 700 CL-X, which also has the Heritage variant that was first presented. In the latter there are improvements in the front braking, with a change in the size of its rim included, as well as small details that gave it a sportier character than that of its sister. Available for the A card, it is also valid with the limitation kit for the A2 card.

The new CFMoto 700CL-X Sport 2022 is here. The Chinese firm CFMoto (imported to Spain by Jets Marivent, also responsible for MITT) has just presented the details and specifications of the new model that arrives with a starting price of €7,995, ready to fight for a gap between the range of motorcycles from half cylinder. The Sport finish of the 700CL-X arrives to put a somewhat sportier point within the range, for a motorcycle with a 693 cc and 73.8 CV twin-cylinder engine. It will also have a limitation kit (optional) to drive it with an A2 license.

The CFMoto 700CL-X Sport 2022 is a motorcycle that also incorporates top brand components, showing that the Chinese firm is serious about its new 700CL-X range. As a curiosity, it has optics with full LED technology in its headlight, with a DRL (daytime running light) system that simulates an X, with an aggressive and spectacular appearance. It will come in two finishes: Nebula White and Velocity Grey.

Rivals of the CFMoto 700CL-X Sport 2022
The new CFMoto 700CL-X Sport 2022 is framed in the naked range with a mid-displacement retro style, where it has a lot of competition and tall rivals. Although the truth is that its price content and its high horsepower play in its favor. These would be their most direct rivals today:

Kawasaki Z650RS 2022: 8,399 euros
Moto Guzzi V7 III Stone: 9,399 euros
Triumph Street Twin 2021: 9,250 euros

 

Engine and technology of the CFMoto 700CL-X Sport 2022
The new CFMoto 700CL-X Sport 2022, like the Heritage version, mounts a 692.6 cc twin-cylinder engine with 74.8 CV at 8,500 rpm and a maximum torque of 68 Nm at 6,500 rpm with Bosch electronics, the top of Chinese brand range. It is also possible to limit it to 48 CV for the A2 card. CFMoto has not yet given us data on its maximum speed and consumption, although its 13-liter tank should give us a range of at least 400 km. The 2-into-1 exhaust on the right ends in an attractive compact silencer.

Meanwhile, the new CFMoto 700CL-X Sport incorporates a complete package of electronic aids for greater safety: Electronic throttle, two driving modes (Eco and Sport), cruise control and anti-lock clutch; all of it as standard. It also incorporates a USB charging socket under the seat and a 75 mm circular digital screen that shows all the necessary information, as well as being a complete trip computer.

 

Chassis, brakes and suspensions of the CFMoto 700CL-X Sport 2022
The new CFMoto 700CL-X Sport 2022 is a light motorcycle (205 kg dry) that has a resistant chrome-molybdenum steel tubular structure chassis (only 16.6 kg), together with a double-sided swingarm in aluminium, with upper reinforcing brace. In the front suspension we find a robust 41 mm inverted KYB fork -adjustable in compression, preload and rebound-, while in the rear there is a shock absorber with a progressive system, also adjustable.

The brakes of the new Sport version are one of the sections where the brand has introduced various modifications. These include Continental ABS technology on both wheels: The front wheel is now 17-inches and features 300mm discs and ByBre four-piston radial calipers. At the back, the 17-inch rim and a 260mm disc remain, although the JJ caliper has been replaced. Juan for one of Brembo. Both wheels are shod with Maxxis tires measuring 120/70 ZR17 at the front and 180/55 ZR17 at the rear.

 

Finishes and equipment of the CFMoto 700CL-X Sport 2022
In this new version, the Asian brand has provided a series of details within this section that give it a more aggressive and sporty aesthetic, all without losing that retro air that is the essential basis of the model. In addition to having 17” wheels on both trains, we can also see that the rear of the seat has been modified. Now we find a single-seat saddle that ends in a tail that has a much more racing aspect.

Other differentiating details in this new CFMoto 700CL-X Sport 2022 would be focused on the driving position. Here the brand has opted for the inclusion of clip-on handlebars instead of the wide handlebar of the Heritage. Likewise, it incorporates a front casing behind the instrument panel that simulates carbon fiber in its finish. In short, small design touches that will give this Sport variant a new image.
