I'm thinking of buying one of these, just for cruizin (no stump jumpin) the beaches, maybe slower riding some of the flatter dunes, campgrounds, etc. These are 1/2 the price of the Yammies, Suzies, and Kawies.
Any thoughts,...other than you get what you pay for ?

Hmmm, made in China....
What are the odds of good parts availability and service?
We are all good at something.....
I just happen to be a good bad example.
Occasionally in error but never in doubt.

Myself, I'd search high and low for a good deal on a used Rhino first.
Lord, grant me the senility to not recognize the people I don't like, the good fortune to run into the ones I do, and the eyesight to tell the difference

I looked at the same type of thing a couple of years ago. Spend half the price of the yamaha, kawasaki, or suzuki and throw it away in 5 years when it breaks and you cant find parts, or pay more and have a used one that you could sell or buy replacement parts in 5 years. I passed on the made in China product.

CF Moto is a good name in the scooter world. However, Chinese scooters require a PDI. Replace all hoses, filters, ALL fluids, locktite all exhaust bolts and fender bolts remove all plastic panels and inspect and silicon electrical connections. My scooter is a 150cc GY6 clone that cost $1,599, and I feel like I got a good deal. I think I would stay away from something as complex and expensive as that ATV. Would something simpler work? I would consider a 150 cc GY6 though; simple to work on and lots of parts available.
