We test the 2023 CFMOTO 450SS, an enjoyable sportbike powered by a 449cc parallel-Twin that makes a claimed 50 hp and 28.8 lb-ft of torque.

450cc ptwin. I don't know the phasing.

50hp, 370lbs wet, 3.7 gallons.

Six speed. Cable clutch, slip/assist.

Single front radial Brembo.

I like the bodywork a lot, especially the styling of the tail. Even has a nicely sculpted swingarm vs a Honda'ish mashed-bit-of-tubing.

That's a lot of brand new bike for $5,500

Pretty sure it has a 270 crank, the motor is the same base CF was going to use for the planned KTM500 twin that got ditched.

Edit, it is a 270.

Too bad KTM ditched the plan to use this motor in a 500 adv platform

270 would be great. I didn't know about that KTM plan. Their current 500 single is so damn good I can't blame them for not being super interested.
