CFMOTO 700CL-X 2023

CFMOTO shows once again that you can't go wrong with very good workmanship, accessible rideability and good to very good equipment. Add to this the attractive price and the powerful sound - the established scrambler competition will have to ask themselves why their slush-road hybrids sometimes cost considerably more.
