I find it okay though, looks clean. Maybe because I don't carry passengers frequently.
I have more gripe with the x-men headlight, looks a bit too overdone for me.

Everyone wanna tail tidy like riding MotoGP bike

So they just snip it in factory... Maybe a bit over snipped 😂

How the f**k do I post up Youtube videos without LYN fucking it up? The forum's stupid YOUTUBE tag doesn't work.

for youtube tag, you only tag everything after v=

so example:

Below is the same without the typo

for chinese domestic orders
ready for packing

OK, this is a deal-breaker for me. I'm 169cm.

The seat height is one thing, but it's also wide. The seat padding is already thin, there's nothing left to shave off to reduce the height.

need to get a tall bike, and learn to use it
hopefully I will get over that fear also

The problem with tall bikes is maneuvring them between the cars (changing lane) at traffic lights/junctions and tight basement parking spaces. With very limited lean angle due to short legs, the weight of the bike could be felt even it is tilted a bit. Small radius turn with handle full lock in crowded space is almost impossible. Open space no issue.

Making it worse is that these types of bikes are normally top-heavy and would be flat if they fell on the ground due to the slim and tall design. Unlike the GS with its boxer-twin engine, the bike doesn't need an extra lift before pushing it with your legs.

This is based on my experience of riding an adventure-wannabe bike with no mod. I'm 163cm with a 29" inseam.

Hows the quality of this bike ? Such aggressive promotion....

I can manage tall bikes if riding solo. There are techniques for that. Problem starts when I add a pillion & luggage. I don't comfortable sliding my ass off the seat to put only 1 foot on the ground when she mounts the bike.

Kalau naik sorang, jatuh bodoh takpe... kalau naik 2 orang jatuh bodoh, habis la bini mengamuk... fobia aku...

There is no guide on Youtube on how to manage tall bikes when riding with pillion & full luggage. Semuanya solo.

Maybe this will help.

I could lift up Versys 650 by myself. But somehow, I couldn't lift up Tenere700 because it is too flat.

Wait... who's T7 let you try pick up?
your own or shop one?

cmon cfmoto, should hv known the locals r not very tall, mebe they target obersea market... kekeke..
well the chinese sure will come out wit some lowering mods..

Friend's one. We exchange bikes during one of the camping excursions late last year. We gently lie those bikes when he taught me the right way to lift the bike.

Boxer engine bikes might be heavier to lift if they fall flat on the ground due to mass of one sided cylinder is not balance when tilted in stationary position. But easier to navigate traffic compare to normal 2/4 inline or v-twin bike since the center of gravity low and balanced out especially those newer Liquid cooled engine.

This based on my own experiences.

Thanks for the info.

I'm always under the impression that the bulging boxer engine would create an angle for the bike that makes the bike not completely flat on the ground if it is tipped over. As the bike is already at an angle, all you need is just push the bike with your legs.

for those hoping to get this, if kambing here la...

get someone to translate for you

Benelli finally catches up with CFMoto. From Paultan.com:


2022 Benelli TRK 800 launched, joins TRK 502 and 251
In Benelli, Bikes, International Bike News / By Mohan K Ramanujam / 16 December 2021 4:53 pm / 0 comments


Joining Benelli’s adventure-touring motorcycle lineup is the 2022 Benelli TRK 800. As per the Benelli TRK 502 (RM30,621 in Malaysia) and TRK 251 (RM13,888 in Malaysia), the TRK 800 shares the same adventure-tourer styling popular amongst Malaysian riders with obligatory spoked wheels and beaked nose.

Power for the TRK 800 comes from a parallel-twin mill displacing 754 cc with liquid-cooling and dual overhead cams with six-speed gearbox, assist and slipper clutch and chain final drive. With a claimed power figure of 76.2 hp at 8,500 rpm and 67 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm, this engine is also used in the Leoncino 800 and Leoncino Trail 800.

As suits the nature of the TRK 800, it comes equipped with long travel suspension, 170 mm in front with a 50 mm diameter Marzocchi fork, fully-adjustable for preload, compression and rebound. Meanwhile the fully-adjustable monoshock at the back gives 171 mm of travel.

Rounding the list of equipment for the TRK 800 are hand deflectors, engine sump guard as well as manual adjustable windshield. The TRK 800 rolls on a 19-inch alloy spoked wheel in front and a 17-inch hoop in the rear, shod in 110/80 and 150/70 tyres.

Braking is done with Brembo, using twin 320 mm discs on the front wheel with four-piston callipers and a single 260 mm disc at the back with single-piston calliper. Necessary information is displayed on a 7-inch TFT-lCD screen with 21-liters of fuel carried in the tank while the overall weight of the TRK 800 without accessories is 214 kg.
