Re: CFMOTO
I dunno about longevity, but the atvs are fine. Got a couple buddies that have them. Didnt see anything wrong with build quality, but the ground clearance and local service center was my main issues aside from being chinese. They did their homework. I went Canadian and japanese, and didnt pay any more than they did, for what it's worth. I bet the sxs is fine if that's the route you want to take.

Re: CFMOTO
If its like anything else they make, they are honda clones. However, they are not interchangeable with honda parts. As long as they supply parts for the machine, and they are good with the price and it serves theirs purpose, I see no problem. I just don't thinl you can bring one to a Yamaha, Honda, Polaris dealership to get fixed. But I could be wrong.

Re: CFMOTO
I prefer to go with the big brands, especially if you plan on modding it’s lifting it. I have a Yamaha rhino that I lifted and did some custom work to. Have had it since 2008 without a single issue. The ones you are looking at may be great, but when it comes to side by sides or bikes, I prefer to go with a Yamaha, Honda, Kawasaki, can am, Polaris, etc. parts are easy to find and they all last a good while if you take care of them. Just my opinion

Re: CFMOTO
I purchased a 2020 Tracker 800SX so far I love it been putting all the upgrades on it. I even put my boat in and out of the water with it. As you may or may not know its an Arctic cat. Bass pro bought arctic cat. At least the side by side part of it I understand. I think Arctic cat kept the snow mobile portion. Any way having fun tricking it out. Runs a true 50 MPH.

Re: CFMOTO
for what you pay for those, look for a used ranger, Yamaha, Kawasaki or other name brane machines. I picked up a used ranger, 2013 a few years back. Had some mileage, but all hard packed trails. Changed belt, put on some tires and haven't missed a beat since.

Re: CFMOTO
I bought a 450 Polaris with power steering. I put 1300 miles on it since March 2019. It goes 55 mph wide open and has all the power I will ever need. You can get one with out power steering for cheap. You will never need anymore power

Re: CFMOTO
Since we can't legally run a SXS on the road here in Florida, I just bought a 2000 Chevy 1500 regular cab, short wheel based 4x4 from a single owner. Less than $5k and can drive anywhere I want and pull the boat, tractor, etc... Can get a good used Jeep for the price of a SXS as well. They cost way too much in my mind for what you get. It's either a real vehicle or a 4 wheeler in my mind, but to each their own.
