Definitely the CFMoto Ibex 450. Really looking forward for your long term review of this bike on the channel.
I would really like to see a Ibex 450 vs Himalayan 450 comparison.
Apart from the engine, they have very similar specs and price point.
CF Moto 450 please ! It is a bit too far to the dirt side for me (90road 10%dirt rider) BUT maybe I have to become a 50/50 rider instead of finding a 90/10 bike.....never thought along those lines.
Cf moto 450
Cf moto Ibex 450 Vs honda nx500 vs Himalayan
Cf moto gave us what we have been begging the big 4 for years for. Thank you
BMW, KTM and Triumph have also refused to make a lightweight off road oriented ADV bike with enough power to comfortably cruise on the interstate. They did this to protect the sales of their porky mid and full size ADV bikes. A pox upon them! 😛
I wanna see all the 450s on your channel! Kove 450, Ibex 450, New Hima 450 long-term on your channel. Great coverage of the show Ian. Thank you!
Very interested in the Ibex 450
I suspect a lot of punters don't need one but they're going to have one.
Finally a company that has produced a bike that the masses have been crying out for.
Supply will struggle to keep up with demand.
450 scene about to explode!
I hope so
It's time
I am so excited to know more about the CFMoto ibex 450
Can't wait for CFMOTO Ibex 450
The KOVE and the Ibex. I've never understood why manufacturers have the Dakar to showcase bikes but don't offer a Dakar-esque bike for the masses (not the $30,000.00 KTM clone but a real bike for the masses). Being 63, picking up a fully loaded adventure bike is not high on my "Yeah! Let's do this!" scale. The sub 400 lb, 450 class is very exciting (once we get some reliability data). For now, I'll stick with my, as you mentioned, modified KTM 690 (purchased used so saved some $$ there). Keep up the great content, Ian!
Same age, same considerations, have a 690, always looking for a lighter weight with no diminishment in power.!
The ibex 450 and the love 800 look really great aesthetically and seem very interesting. Especially considering the price
It’ll probably have something to do with the cost of building a bespoke platform for production and the projected profit from that. Car companies share platforms to maximise profit.. have a look at the 390 ADV - its a modded 390 Duke, the T7 shares an engine with a street bike, the CB500X is shared, I could go on. I think it’s remarkable that an Indian company made a complete ground up bespoke ADV bike - the 450 Himalayan! Look at this 450MT - engine and other parts are shared. Companies try to max profit first.
Agreed! I have a Kove 450 because I couldn't easily lift my Tuareg 660 if it was at a bad angle. Feel more confident now that I'm in my 60's if something should go wrong when I'm in the woods. Hoping the reliability is there. Bike seems very well built.
Man, I’m really liking the CF Moto 450 🤙🏼 thanks for the tour
Ibex 450 and kove 450 are a must for the channel. I think both bikes will make amazing content.
Ibex 450. Thanks for the tour.
Cfmoto ibex 450 , yes definitely get one of those.
Ibex 450 to me is going to shake up the adventure world.
We have been asking for a small light weight twin adv bike for years and it's finally here
European and Japanese producers outright REFUSED to build a 400-500cc A2 compliant, capable adventure bike, because they wanted customers to buy their more expensive mid range bikes. Now the Chinese will take their money and they will scramble to get something similar. Too little, too late.
CF Moto 450...this is the bike I can't wait to see and ride.
Kove 450 and CF Moto IBEX - if that's an option please do buy both - I am seriously considering one of them ! Great Job Ian !
Support the FCKN Chinese---good job, dude.
I have to say the CF Moto Ibex 450 looks a really well thought out bike.
Waiting for your long test of the CFmoto 450.
Just subscribed. 😊
For an economical bike the CFMoto IBex 400 bike is certainly a bike I'd love to see long term testing of. Particularly to see if it holds up mechanically/electrically. Thanks for your work and efforts in bringing us the latest additions to the bike/gear world. Well done Ian!!
I would love to see the CF Moto Ibex 450 review, long term test. Your thoughts and opinions are so valuable!
Most excited for the CFMoto Ibex 450 and the Kove 800X Rally! These are the bikes we have been asking for! Small displacement ADV and midsize displacement light ADV!
This ☝️ the Kove 800 is 183kg wet! Only 8kg heavier than CF450’s 175kg dry 😮
@@romaniansontheroad Looks awesome, but it's expensive
@@chrispekel5709 but you shouldn’t have to do anything to it except for possibly revalve the suspension
@@chrispekel5709 not really when you compare it with the T700 or others in this class; it’s worth it just for the weight savings alone; it’s all about reliability: if it’s there then it’s a no brainer! If it’s not there yet it will be in a few years! CFMOTO and KOVE will surpass all the competition in 20 years!
@@chrispekel5709$10k foe the base model is absolutely fine price wise.
It’s amazing it has taken so long for bike manufacturers to get deeply into adventure market. Adventure bikes are definitely the most comfortable riding experience.
Definitely interested in both cf moto 450 and the Kove 450 Rally as well a lot of great new bikes coming out so many choices 👍🤟
Very interested in these two bikes as well. 🏍🏍
me too
Hey Ian, thanks for the report on AIM! I''m definitely interested in the Kove 450/800, especially the 800 with the low weight, and possibly a 'unicorn.' Can't wait to see your review on them
I can't wait to see your review on the CF 450 Ibex!
Great overview Ian. I'd be drooling all over seeing and touching these new bikes! CFmoto 450 twin stands out with all it's features and pricing.
The CFMoto 450 engine is a nice unit in the SS and NK models. Interest for Ibex 450 is very high!
Kove 450/800. I'm seriously considering buying one of these.
Yes 4 the Kove & cfmoto! cheers! 🍻
Never buy communist
PS. Thanks for taking us to the show! Great job covering the MOTO show and bringing us Big Rock MOTO Heads along.
Super excited about that 450 Ibex. I think they finally got it right with weight, tech, and especially tire size.
yes on the kove450 and the ibex looks very interesting.
The Ibex 450 looks very promising , there is not much talk about the real maintenance intervals for the kove450 rally, so maybe it's a heavy enduro bike with lots of fuel capacity, also do to it's seat height it's not for everyone, but I its a great bike and many folks are happy with it and that is what counts.
Kove does have a lowered seat height model.
You do lose a bit of travel in the rear suspension. They have one on the dealership floor here in AZ.
I'm looking forward to that Morini 1200! That looks badass to me.
Let's see some Moto Guzzi action! They look amazing.
You are a true inspiration and a solid reviewer with a solid moral compass and humility. Thanks!
Great stuff - Would love to learn more about the CFMoto Ibex 450. Cheers
The ibex 450 is so interesting, and the kove rally style is definitely eye catching
The Kove 450 Rally is super interesting. The Suzuki 1000 and the Moto Morini 1200 both seem super dope.
The Ibex 450 is looking good. That price range is awesome.
Can't wait for the Ibex.
i'm super exited for the CFmoto 450, i love it already, the 270° engine is a necesity today were everyone has a 180° super boring engine... you can have the same horse power yes, but the feeling of a 270° is unique... and only 6.500usd.
I'd say it's 50/50 these days. A lot of 270 degree bikes out there
@chrispekel5709 but no bikes on the 48hp (A2 euro license) area... that's actually the biggest fuel for smaller adv bikes, without the A2 license and the European market, every bike out there would be a 650 monocyl... in USA for example, the smallest adv bike you could get was or a Chinese 250, or a 650 KLR or DR... at least on my opinion, because you also have the DRZ400 and the Hondas CRF 250 and CRF300 that would exist with or without the A2 license requirements
NO ONE has a mid-light *crosspoane* inline-2 under 200kg except CFMOTO ..
KOVE has a *concept* factory modded 800cc ADV-rally bike, 165kg dry .. concept ..
but that 450cc *crossplane* .. OOOOOOOH!!
@@chrispekel5709
Yep, 180 degree parallel twin is a deal breaker for me.
Been riding V-Strom 650's for the past 17 years.
Thought I'd move on to the V-Strom 800 RE.
A smarter move for my aging bod would be the CFMoto 450MT
@@MrBenHaynes test the 800DE, it feels light and nimble, don't believe too much on what the specs says... the 800DE feels as light as my 790 adventure, and lighter than my GS 800 that is bone stock and that bike weights 185kg dry.
Yes also interested in cf moto mt450 👍👍👍👍
Thank you Ian for this wonderful video. I didn't attend the Expo but now I haven't missed anything.
That ibex450 looks super awesome!
Kove 800 X Adventure Pro and 800 X Rally
I am so excited about both the RE 450 and especially the Ibex 450. The Ibex sounds like it will be exactly what I am looking for, if the reliability is good. I am a huge fan of smaller ADV bikes. I love my 2019 500X, but it’s really a street bike in disguise. (Though it gets me everywhere I want to go at 64 years old!) Keep up the great work Ian, your channel is the best!
Ian your productivity is incredible.
Damn that Stelvio is sick! Also, I am really impressed by the CF Moto 450, hopefully it goads the other manufacturers to follow suit.
Cf moto 450. Looks good
Really excited for you to get your hands on that CF 450! This market segment is only getting bigger and bigger, so happy to see it grow as it is one of my favorite classes of motos.
Love them all! Beautiful bikes ….
Thanks Ian for taking us there. And it’s the ibex 450 for me
Absolutely interested in both the Ibex and the Kove's! These companies seem so passionate about actually providing what riders want. Really hoping they turn out well as their pricing is attainable.
I'll jump into the same group who craves the Kove 450 and Ibex 450. However, the sexiest thing here is the MG Stelvio, by a mile. Italian hotness... I feel naughty when I see the Stelvio.... Thanks for the video Ian, we appreciate you and what you do.
That's a great presentation Ian. I love motorcycle trade expos, but sadly in my country, they're a thing of the past and the interest in motorcycling has dwindled for many reasons.
I hope you can acquire the IBEX 450 and the Kove 800 for long term channel reviews. It would make sense for those manufacturers to loan you a bike for the evaluation, as your channel is quite prominent on UA-cam.
The build quality of Moto Morini looks really good, but in my part of the world brands like them aren't going to grab much market share, particularly as dealership establishment of the big brands will always win over the smaller brands.
Those new Arai helmets look the biz! I love that olive green colored one on the back of the stand at 19:55 .
A big thumbs up to SW-Motech for the new pannier construction. Nelson Rigg are right up there too with their unique designs (especially the new universal quick mount plate).
What else grabbed your attention at the AIM Expo Ian?
Best wishes to you from the south west coast of the island of Australia.
Great tour of the show. You nailed this and should do more of this format.
The cfmoto 450, looking forward to see it live. A cracking little bike 👍
CF 450 looking hard at that bike.
CFMoto’s Ibex 450 sparks the most interest for me since EICMA. Was hoping it would come to our shores. The 270 deg motor and radical tubeless 21/18 wheels are a dream as I have a CB500X now.
Also the Stelvio will be awesome. I’ve owned every generation of the Stelvio and they were fantastic bikes. Took one up Imogene Pass. I’ve since downsized from my bike from 1200cc to 500cc but Stelvio’s are always amazing motos!
Hey hey Ian!
Always great content, appreciate ya!
Ibex 450 is shaping up to be what so many have wanted from the Japanese makers and I'm glad to see some pressure put on them to improve. I like my CB500X quite a bit but I would be awfully tempted by that, if for the sound alone. Kawasaki can't even be bothered to put their 400 into the Versys-X.
Thanks for the video, we don't have a bike show to go to anymore, so this was very nice to see. Very interested in the Ibex 450!
The Ibex450 , just needs a set of barkbusters, metal bash plate,good tires, the price is great …. just need to get one !! hope the aftermarket groups get on board with this one!!
My concern is replacement tyres in the stock sizes if you do a majority of sealed roads.
A lot of them seem to be quite aggressive.
Bridgestone make a bias ply Battlax BT46 but that's about it.
If you're prepared to increase 10mm of width on the rear, a 150/70R18 opens up more choice.
6:55 Hey thats me lol!!! I thought I recognized you when I saw you filming I just didnt put 2 & 2 together that you were Big Rock Moto. I've watched some of your ADV bike reviews. Your long format videos are the best. I will look out for your CFmoto review when you get one. Im thinking about buying an ADV bike someday soon.
I’m loving this influx of the Chinese brands blowing the doors open on the motorcycle market! More competition means better products and opportunities for us consumers 🙌🏻
Yes, definitely interesting Ian to see these Kove in details as well as the even more exciting (and vetter built?) MT Ibex 450. I am also wondering if you would be interested in having a Stelvio once since you enjoyed the little sister Tuareg.
As much as i like the japanese/european adv bikes, you gotta admit the chinese brands are really coming in hot. giving the people what they asked, light cheap modern. it's gonna be really interesting to see the competition and how the major brands respond
Remember when the AIM Expo used to draw huge crowds..?
Looks like nobody was there- maybe just the time of day he was there?
The CFMOTO Ibex 450 is the only bike I'm really interested in right now. A couple years ago I sold my bigger adventure bike and got a super cheap used Versys X-300 that I dont feel bad about riding hard and dropping it. I've had a ton of fun on it riding the TAT and lots of offroad time. I dont really need more than the 40ish hp range but having that same hp with the torque, and sound of the 270 degree crank would be a plus!
That Kove 800 looks awesome.
For sure, if that comes to the US I'm throwing down cash asap
@@Purehess it's already confirmed to be in the US probably around late summer / early fall
I've pre-ordered a CF MOTO 450 here in Australia. Very good price. Looks well made. Pre-orders here in Australia are very very popular. Id be keen to see you get one and do your detailed review and a build on it. Love your channel.
Im in oz WA did you pre order the Ibex450 ? If so how much and when does it get here .TIA
MT@@jktl1000s I did mate. We call it the450 MT I think. My pre order price is $8995
Thanks for the great show reviews especially since all the other shows have fallen off the map.
Would like to see you do a test of the new BMW GS900 when it’s available and provide a comparison between the 890KTM, Ducati Desert X, and Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Rally Pro.
450 rally is awesome. Rode it for a week out in Utah. Just an amazing bike and rides so light!
That new Suzuki is so sick to me, like a BMW S1000XR competitor
Thank you, Ian. All good stuff here. The Ibex 450 is intriguing, but I couldn't keep my eyes off of the new Stelio. What a beautiful and well appointed bike. Alas, there isn't a single dealer in all of Alaska, so for now will stick with my 1250 GSA.
Killer video. Very informative, thanks a bunch.
I noticed the price leveling between the completion for the GS price tag. With this said I am liking the CFMOTO, though look for the big adventure bikes. Thank You for taking us to the show, much cool.
Ibex 450 - lots of interest. My channel is dedicated to the Kawasaki Versys X300 and the X300 owners have been asking for a X400 for over 4 years. Upgrading the X300 to the X400 (again - with the borrowed Ninja 400 engine) would sell. We know that but Kawasaki ignores this market and now the Chinese will take it by horns and own it. Kawasaki had their chance for years to get this done and now will be a "me to" / catch up bike down the road. The new Kawasaki 450 engine that recently came out should have immediately been put in a Versys X450 with upgrades to the suspension, movable windshield, increased suspension travel of 3 or more inches, more ground clearance and a disabled switch for the ABS (sounds like the Ibex - yup ! )
Glad to finally see the market moving back to more sensible bike sizes. For adventure style riding or exploration riding 4-600cc and under 500lbs is definitely welcome. Looking in the comments of almost every discussion video on the "do it all" bikes, so many have been asking for a smaller lighter twin with good road manners and decent off road capability.
Excellent converge Thank you
The Ibex 450 is going to be a very popular bike
Yes on the Kove 450. You pointed out the dual tanks up front, but forgot the rear gas/water tank at the tail.
The CFMoto 450 would be a great addition, as well. More interested in the Kove 450 for long-range desert riding/adventure.
"Thank you" Ian for the great coverage of the AIMExpo! Much appreciated from the folks that couldn't get out to the show... You and your channel are crushing it - been watching since the early days. One word of advice for trade shows - wear the most comfortable pair of walking/running shoes in your closet. Those events can leave your dogs barkin'!... All the best moving forward!
Thank you Ian. 🙏🏻 This was excellent.
Lots of cool stuff. Had no idea about the Expo. On the books for next year. Appreciate your content and coverage. Owning a Kove 450 rally now, I would encourage you getting one. Extremely pleased with mine. Most people seem to like them. Looking forward to your review on them. Keep up the great work. Great channel!
That Ibex 450 is PACKED with features!
Thanks for the video. Cool new bikes!
Great video. I feel like I was there. Lots of interesting motos and gear coming.
Great episode! Really want to see these bikes in person.
*CF Moto ibex For me* If I can comfortably sit on it it's a definite buy 😊
The same thing happened with the Nk800, SrS450 and Clc450... CFMoto is simply sweeping the market. Good, quality, technological and cheap motorcycles.
Please buy the Ibex 450 when it comes out!
Whatever you review is what I will watch. Best in the business Ian.
I’d be most interested in the Ibex 450.
I am totally enjoying this series on the KLX300. Thanks for putting this together
Ian you rock, keep it up.
Looks like the Ibex 450 checks all the boxes
patiently waiting for this bike ibex450/450mt in my country
I'm looking forward to the Ibex 450. Looks to be more capable than the upcoming Honda NX 500.
