- Motorcycle Live 2022: CCM 4K
This is my video from the CCM stand at Motorcycle Live 2022. They weren't at EICMA, so I thought I'd show you around.
If you've seen my other CCM videos, you might have noticed that I bought one last year, and it was delivered in the summer. I have a Spitifire Six Stealth. It's the least practical bike I own, but it gets a lot of interest if I ride it anywhere and it's surprisingly fun to ride.
On the stand they have a few Six's, plus the rest of the range and a few new concepts including some double seat tourers with luggage and a Dakar concept. There's also a few bits on the other bikes in the range including the Maverick, Bobber, Heritage 71 and Street Tracker.
More information on all is on:

Thanks for watching!
Fantastic.
Great to see a British company showing the rest of the world how its done. Especially with that fabulous engine.
Thanks for posting.
I think the engine is tried and tested. There are more fabulous engines these days but the old Husky engine works well in the CCM.
I really like these CCM bikes.
My favorite was the green Maverick.
Thanks for the look around.
It does look great!
I worked for Alan Clews many years ago. I wonder how he is. A good guy but at least in those days was wet behind the ears as an employer but we all have to begin somewhere. I wish CCM well. Their new machines are a long way from the motocross bikes we used to make.
They do seem to be doing something different to the mainstream manufacturers. And it appears to be working!
The website says Alan died in 2018. His son, Austin, appears to be heading-up the company.
@@PALongknife Sorry to hear that, thanks.
Fn hell. These bikes are simply incredible looking.
They have done a grand job, and are doing something different to the mainstream. I have a Spitfire Six Stealth with the double discs, Ohlins suspension and the ECU upgrade. It’s a lot of fun to ride.
Wonderful looking bikes, always a highlight of the show👍
They are. Nice to see some new things from them too.
Great job, thanks for that. Love that bobber
They did most of the work! The stands are always popular at the shows.
Thank you for your detailed explanation, although I can never afford to buy/import this to my country, the double seat Spitfire gives me some inspiration to build like it on a two cylinder 250 cc bike.
The CCM attention to details can't be compared to other big manufacturer that also sells "retro" genre motorcycle.
Thanks, and I'm glad that it's inspiring.
The whole "modern retro" theme has been taken-up by quite a few manufacturers in recent years, but, in my humble opinion, I believe CCM is executing it more coherently than most-- their design ethos seems to be "Classic\Retro lines & proportions, but Modern materials & details," and I hope they keep at it!
I agree, though at some point using a more modern engine would be nice! (Not sure how old the 600 single design is, but what it lacks in refinement it makes up for with character, which suits the bike quite well!)
Great looking bikes
Thanks Andy. I like them. Not everyone’s cup of tea though.
CCM is really pushing the design and paint envelope on their new offerings. While not inexpensive, I'd still pony up the dough for one in my garage. These are nice!!
Yup, I think they look great. I agree that £10k (starting) isn’t cheap, but it’s not crazy money either, and for the price, there’s not a lot else that attracts that much attention!
like the look of the touring style bike, different to the rest
It is, with that larger subframe and pannier frames and pillion pegs. I wonder if it’ll go into production?
wow thanks, i really like them all
I think they look great, or at least different.
Scrambler is nice.
They look great!
Revulsed by: motorcycles looking like kid's "transformer" toys. These bikes i LIKE ... w/open tubular frames.
They do look quite different. I enjoy riding mine, though it’s definitely a bike for sunny days!
Thanks for covering CCM at the show, really liking the Maverick, I think the number plate position makes a big difference to making the bike look finished, the side mount and the arm from the rear wheel hub is a deal breaker for me as I don't think either suits the style of the bike.
I see there's a lot of the bikes on the stand don't have a number plate, or a bracket on which a plate would mount, maybe CCM agree with me?
You are welcome, and I agree that the location is problematic on several of the models. My Six came with it on the rear mudguard, but I think I’ll move it to the side. It’s still not great, but it has to go somewhere. They all look great without one 🤣
I ordered a Maverick at this year’s Motorcycle Live with a verbal delivery date of March/April. I’ll have to change plans if it’s gonna be August!
Hopefully the supply chain problems have eased a bit in the last year. The Mavericks look awesome! March/April will be around soon.
@@PeakMotorcycles January delivery 👍
I was there today I just loved the black spitfire I am glad found your video I want to know more about this bikes
I have a couple of videos about my ‘Six’. I need to do a bit of work to it; moving the number plate to the side and maybe some indicator modifications to under the seat. It’s a winter project!
Really like the CCM Maverick and am tempted to order one, only reason I haven't so far is I couldn't find a dealer who had one I could test ride plus I've never seen one on the road or spoken to an owner to ask what its like to ride and live with, I still might take a punt on one but would like to ride one first before spending the money.
There’s a CCM user group via the forums on their website. If you’re ever up in Bolton, I’m sure they could sort out a test ride. They also did a roadshow earlier this year and had a test fleet at the ABR Festival. They don’t have dealers (or at least I thought they only did direct sales…) so perhaps you’ll get to try one through one of the other channels. Good luck!
@@PeakMotorcycles I contacted the CMM factory directly about a test ride , so all being well will get one sorted in the new year.
@@ianmorgan7198 good work. That’s more organised than I was! (Though Covid was still very much a thing this time last year. I’ll use that as an excuse 😉)
I hope CCMs are better than they were. I had a CCM 604 service bike once - from Bracken KTM in Bermondsey . The worst gearbox I've ever experienced. To my eyes, a lot of these bikes appear unfinished. Apart from the Maverick. Wow!
Time will tell. I’m 500 dry road miles in and no problems. Long may it continue!
To bad they are still not available over here in Italy !!!!!
It is. I was thinking of coming over in the van and bringing the CCM and perhaps another for a bit of ride round. You definitely have more of the right weather for it than we do in the UK!
is there a dealer in the philippines
Doubt it.
I don’t think so. UK only, and direct from CCM, no dealer network here either. All the servicing is mobile vans.
The company founder will be turning in his grave. These are 'machines for posing on/ being seen parking outside the pub'. Bring back the GP 450.
I’ve never ridden mine to the pub. It’s a great bike for a 50-100 mile lap of the Peak District. That’s pretty much all mine gets used for I’m afraid. I doubt I’m cool enough to ride one in the way you describe though 🤣
All the same bike with different handlebars.
Same engine and main frame. Different subframes, seats, bars, exhausts, mudguards, and wheels.
Thank you for your detailed explanation, although I can never afford to buy/import this to my country, the double seat Spitfire gives me some inspiration to build like it on a two cylinder 250 cc bike.
The CCM attention to details can't be compared to other big manufacturer that also sells "retro" genre motorcycle.
I quite like the Kawasaki Z retro's. Different to CCM, but I think they are the best of that class.
@@PeakMotorcycles You know what, I agree with this statement, after googling out what Kawasaki Z’s line up here in Indonesia, their population are super limited due to high pricing slapped to every motorbike above 250 cc displacement, which can get up to 3x the price of European/American used to.
