Thoughts on this ATV

I would rate it below Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki, Polaris, Arctic Cat and Kymco. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's a bad machine. There's just better options out there than a CFMoto.

Read my latest update on my Sportsman 570 HERE.

I have the 570SP that offers dual A-Arms in front, downhill 4 wheel engine braking, and aluminum rims over the standard Sportsman 570. If you're seriously considering a new machine, give the Polaris Sportsman 570 a look. You can get into a 2015 for less than $6000.

Plus+ 1. CFMOTO & Kymco are made in China who make a pretty cheap product that is not very reliable. I would buy a used one of any major brands before I would buy a new one of those two. wink

Kymco is not made in china and they are far from junk. They make engines for BMW among others.

CFmoto on the other hand is not going to be a quad that will be easy to work on. Many don't have serviceable carbs or are hard to find dealers anywhere around.

Yes their main HQ and some Mfg is in Taiwan but some of their factories are in China still! Sorry! wink

    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
    • The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there.  About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
    • It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway.  Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work.  You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water.  When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
