Owner report 11533759 · 2023-07-22 (July 22, 2023)
This motorcycle is equipped with cruise control. At highway speeds in 6th gear, a design issue with the gear position sensor causes the indicated gear to rapidly switch between 6th gear and 1st gear. This has two effects: 1. Cruise control disengages 2. The engine shuts off and will not start again until the motorcycle is fully shut off (key turned to the off position and back on) This reaction to the gear indicator reading results in the motorcycle abruptly engine braking at speeds up to 80 mph and an inability to restart the engine until st…

Owner report 11540962 · 2023-08-26 (August 26, 2023)
Cruise control disengages randomly. Gear indicator goes from 6th gear to 1st gear or displays -. This typically happens on interstate at 55-75mph and causes sudden engine braking with rapid deceleration. This creates a risk of getting rear ended at high rates of speed. This had been a common problem reported on forums for this model of motorcycle.

Owner report 11538969 · 2023-08-16 (August 16, 2023)
The first issue is that of the fuel gauge displaying wrong and/or acting up. Sometimes it'll go directly from full to 1/4 tank, then randomly go back up to full or anywhere between. It's pretty spontaneous. The second issue is that of the cruise control. While travelling at interstate speeds and after passing another vehicle, I turned cruise control on only for the bike to die right after. I had to quickly make an emergency maneuver out the flow of traffic as I had no throttle or cruise and was slowing down very quickly. There was a check engi…

Owner report 11539007 · 2023-08-16 (August 16, 2023)
Fuel gauge on 2022 CFMOTO 700cl-x displays either empty, or partially full of fuel when the vehicle fuel tank is at its fullest state marked by the reference bar located inside the fuel tank. Cruise control randomly disengages while the vehicle display reads the incorrect gear position. Example: Cruise control set at speed limit, gear indicator “flickers” between 1st and 6th gear while vehicle is in motion which appears to disengage the cruise control. Motorcycles loose speed quickly at zero throttle and this has become a safety issue for me.…
