You can get a new cf moto between $15k-$20k
I cant see it working out but time will tell.

I audit some outfits that have gone from Honda/Yamaha to CF Moto. They end up chewing through the price difference in 3-4 years with the more frequent failure rate of parts, higher wear and tear etc etc.


My Honda quad still has the same brake pads and wheel bearings it came with 14 years ago. Gets used most weeks on the farm, and we have steep country. The dual clutch system in a manual transmission is really good for engine braking.

Having said that, the Canam side x side is a dream to cruise around the farm, or go hunting with. Quieter and more comfy all around. A certainly capable in steep terrain. And you can throw the doors on when the weather is shite
