Test: CF Moto CF Force 1000 4 × 4 EPS (2020) // Compromise On Price Only

They say the name says a lot. He can even define character. I don't know for sure if this is true, it is mostly difficult to measure, but sometimes it seems to me that there is something in it. CF Force says a lot with its name. Riding with him is as much fun as riding the death train at an amusement park.

The forces with which it pulls when accelerating and climbing steep inclines are exceptional. The four-wheeled vehicle has a power that cannot be underestimated. It takes an experienced driver to drive to its full potential. The four-stroke two-cylinder engine with a volume of 963 cubic centimeters in the open version is capable of developing an output of 80 "horsepower".... You can also drive it on the road with a car exam, of course with a mandatory safety helmet.

And this is not the case. If we only drove it on asphalt roads, we would be doing a huge injustice to ourselves and to the four-wheeled vehicle. Rough off-road tires provide such good traction on gravel and muddy tracks that everything else is a waste of time. The drivetrains and chassis are built for sporty off-road driving.

CFMoto CF Force 1000 it remains stable even at high speeds when driving over bumps and large puddles. So it might be a little stiff and not as comfortable, but when things get serious, it keeps the wheels in contact with the ground. It also makes a jump with ease, and with the right throttle after landing, it also maintains stability and direction.

If I spoke When it comes to the compromise between comfort and sportiness, the attitude is shifting towards sportiness. Well, even in this case, the passenger can ride it beautifully. The comfortable and long seat with a padded backrest can accommodate two adults. Both passenger handles are very good too. They provided excellent foot protection and we should especially praise the quality pedals, which provide good support for the serrated profile.

A four-wheeled vehicle that allows both sporty gliding in corners and adrenaline-filled off-roading is aboutleeks and proper weight tolerance are very important. The power transmitted through the automatic transmission to the rear pair of wheels is well distributed over the entire rev range. When necessary, when things under the wheels get extreme, it is usually sufficient to simply shift the drive to all four wheels with the push of a button.

Gearbox and 100% rear differential lock... Set high, raised off the ground, with a sturdy standard chassis and front protection, it is capable of tackling very tough obstacles without damage. In such a situation, you would otherwise need a slightly finer throttle feel for delicate, precise throttle response. Even if not, a little more roughness and loudness can be found in the drive system. But these are really little things that, in all honesty, also mean a lot in this category of four-wheelers.

Due to its large size, it is of course a little more difficult to find where there is little space. It is in such conditions that shifting into reverse gear can be considered a rare criticism. The gearbox is already pretty stiff anyway, and the reverse brake still needs to be pressed very hard to move to the reverse position.... The rest is a safety feature, according to CF Moto. The disadvantages also include a very hard parking brake. But not only to criticize, the steering wheel is very easy to maneuver with the help of the hydraulic booster.

In addition to an attractive appearance, high-quality processing and durable plastic, we give the technique a big plus. The wide range of standard equipment also includes a high quality winch and certified towbar. This means that in addition to field activities, CF Moto also offers assistance with forest or farm work.... He offers a lot for his price, and if he knows no compromises in driving, he knows it for the price.
