Cf Moto builds around 900,000 engines a year and has for decades. At one time they build Polaris SXS's, Honda 90cc engines, KTM engines and a few others. In many countries, CF Moto is a top selling brand. They use elka shocks (not junk) Delphi fuel injection and Bosch electronics. None of which is junk. I'm guessing and reasonably certain very few if anyone here has ever driven a CF Moto but rather are basing their opinions on stereotypes.
Comparing it to a RZR 900S which I have been in several times, dollar for dollar, I would take the CF Moto every day of the week. Just as capable if not more due to its locking front diff, and engine braking. Comes with the extras that polaris charges for and still costs 1000"s less.

any guesses on who created and trademarked the liquid cooled 4-stroke engines that led to today's modern power plants? Yup, CF Moto.

My local Honda dealership sold them alongside Hondas for several years

Not a UTV but my wife’s Brute force 300 is made by Kymco and it was one of the best 2 wheel drive ATVs that you can buy. Very high quality. Always ran great and very good fit and finish.

this same platform is sold as the Tracker 300 and Artic Cat uses it as well.

I believe Kymco is Tawain Big difference. Kymco builds some good stuff

CF Moto dose not build engines "for honda ".
They may have made knock off engines and could still for the Asian market (I have no personal knowledge on the Asian small bike market).
They have a large collaboration with KTM, making engines and small displacement bikes for KTMs Asia market.

The funny thing is, China made and still makes junk but there is some really good stuff coming out of China now.
It's like stuff made in Japan.
Most of us are old enough to remember when "made in Japan" was code for crap.
Then in the 1980s the Japanese car companies kicked Detroit in the nuts.
China will do the same thing (and again Americans will not see it comming).

That's what I was getting at, that it's was BS.

I would think Honda started the goo stuff made in Japan when they brought the first bikes over. They didn't leak oil like HD and ran like clockwork.

China is a cheater and steals every bit of IP that it can get its hands on.
As far as Americans not seeing it "comming"(short for communist?) The sad fact is that while we are over here living a life worth living, others are plotting and scheming to rain on our parade.
I could give a rats ass if china built a solid gold UTV and sold them for pennies on the dollar.
I'm not interested in buying anything made in china, and when I have no choice I do so unwillingly.
