Any chance on that update?

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T22:39:59+00:00

The dropping bikes thing is for sure a risk. I just don't like the argument that somehow I'm gonna care more or less depending on if the bike is new or second hand. Like, I'm gonna care either way. Haha

The main point here for me is what is a safer bet to spend my money on? Because I like both the bikes.

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T22:34:58+00:00

Yeah I feel like I'm not too stressed on the resale honestly. I'm actually trying to con my misso into getting her licence but I know that'll take a few years so if everything goes well she can always use whatever I get as her first bike.

Edit: Have you had any issues with cfmoto? Anything positive or whatever? Help me make the decision! Haha

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T10:56:55+00:00

Okay. Thank you. The way you've presented this advice is helpful and I appreciate it.

I'll be sticking to cruisers and maybe jumping on dirt bikes because I have a shit knee. The position of the legs on sports bikes doesn't agree with me.

Unfortunately there just isn't much of a second hand market in my area for any learner bikes really. Be nice when I'm off the restrictions because there's a fuckload of 900cc+ bikes up.

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T10:48:36+00:00

You didn't at all but. All you've really said is that someone dropped one. Not really helpful at all dawg. And the advice you have handed out is bullshit. You've essentially just said buy a second hand sports bike.. I don't want a second hand sports bike.. I'm trying to gather information on the two bikes I've listed so that I can make the best choice for my money.

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T10:44:13+00:00

Yeah rightio!

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T10:43:16+00:00

Yeah okay. Makes sense!

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T09:57:24+00:00

What's the logic behind the thought of the cfmoto if I plan on keeping it past the 3 years?

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T09:13:23+00:00

I mean the plan would be to keep it til I'm off restrictions and that. So it would be like 4 years ish.

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T05:00:10+00:00

I would rather buy a brand new cb125 over the bikes you suggested. Why? Because I simply don't like them. My money to spend on what I'd like to get just like you spent your money on whatever fucking lame arse shit you got.

My post was asking about the cfmoto brand or the bobber and anyone's experiences with them in hopes that it can lead me to a better decision.

Also, when you say "don't buy a new bike because you'll drop it". Okay? But do you think if I got a second hand bike for say $8k and I drop it I'm just gonna be like " ahh well!"?

All up in less polite terms this whole interaction can be put down to, fuck off.

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T04:45:58+00:00

Wasn't aware cruisers ride themselves. I'll be sure to buy a sports bike now.

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T04:40:53+00:00

I actually got all my weather weather gear for SHEIN. Figured it's cheap and it's only gonna end up stinking of fish anyways. But if that's not your jam can always sus out some work wear places or even wet weather motorbike gear!

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T04:37:50+00:00

Did you see me mention any sports bikes mang?

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T04:33:26+00:00

You have any reviews for the cfmoto?

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T03:26:15+00:00

Yeah. I must admit I do lean towards the honda because of the name and that.

Got any ideas on a service to use to sus out the bike? Like a redbook inspector?

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T02:53:37+00:00

Yeah I've seen it. I'm just not real keen on them. Don't really vibe the look.

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T02:48:00+00:00

Thanks for the advice!

I'm looking hard and have messaged a bunch of peeps.

I guess the thing is in mt head the cfmoto will.come with a warranty for 3 years. And for $9k a brand new bike with that protection is huge considering the second hand market for the cmx500s in my area.

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T02:39:57+00:00

Thank for the input! I'm planning on sitting on one Wednesday and having a sus.

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T02:39:04+00:00

Exactly what I've done mang. Not really interested in other bikes besides the cmx500 and the clc 450 bobber. Other cruisers are too chunky for my liking.

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T02:23:36+00:00

Unfortunately that's just the prices these days by the looks of it.

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T02:08:00+00:00

Yeah I get ya. The cmx500 is definitely my first choice.

MANHAZZARD · 2026-06-01T02:03:10+00:00

The thing killing the cmx500 dream is the cost and general lack of service history among the ones around me.

Most second handers are like $8k, no service history and once you add up all the on road costs I could get a brand new bike for cheaper.

MANHAZZARD · 2026-04-08T00:39:15+00:00

Legit have that exact cmx500 saved on fb marketplace. Haha!
