Introducing the CFMOTO 450NK – the entry-level addition to CFMOTO’s NK series

Cutting the edge of naked performance
This press release has:

For 2024, the NK series has undergone a complete overhaul, and with it comes the brand-new CFMOTO 450NK. Complete with a powerful 449cc parallel-twin engine platform, updated exterior design, and enhanced functionality, it brings new riding experiences to its riders. This provides the ideal stepping-stone for everyone enjoying a sporty, yet comfortable naked bike, with easy handling, comfort, and engine performance.

Ergonomics and Handling

Tipping the scales at only 165 kg, the CFMOTO 450NK boasts one the best curb weights in its class. This makes for extremely nimble, easy handling while the 795 mm seat height allows also shorter riders a more comfortable riding position.

The wide front–narrow rear seat cushion design also enhances the riding comfort over a longer time spent in the saddle, while the positioning of foot levers, handlebar, and seat, ensures the ideal at all times.

Engine

The 450NK’s engine platform is developed and build by CFMOTO. With a 449 cc parallel twin-cylinder producing 34,5 kW/10000 rpm and 39,3 Nm/7750 rpm, the CFMOTO 450NK delivers ample thrust along a linear power curve. This also ensures a quick acceleration of 0 to 100km/h in 4.9 s, and a top speed of 178 km/h.

A new 270° crankshaft angle, with output characteristics similar to that found in V-twin engines, provides a throaty burble, with impressive throttle response, while a double-balance shaft arrangement reduces engine vibration for a more comfortable ride. A 14 l fuel tank capacity also increases the maximum cruising range to 300 km, making it an ideal choice for commuters and hobby riders alike.

Chassis, Brakes, and Suspension

In terms of handling, the CFMOTO 450NK draws on a selection of premium components designed to ensure optimum handling and ease of use. Upfront, a 37 mm upside-down fork provides real-world stability and controllability, as well as a sporty feel, with the rear center-aligned shock absorber ensuring comfort and maximum traction under acceleration.

The front 110/70 R17 and rear 150/60 R17 wheel and tire combination further enhance the 450NK’s handling prowess, with optimized CST AS5 high-performance tires, providing exceptional grip on all street surfaces and weather conditions. Further, the 192 mm ground clearance makes the 450NK suitable for most road conditions,

Braking is taken care of by a J.JUAN 320 mm disc up front and a 220 mm, HANGTE disc on the rear, supported by a standard ABS, providing controlled braking force at all times.

Rider Aids

Beneath its sporty, naked design, the CFMOTO 450NK features an advanced traction control system for improved safety. This works by limiting rear-wheel slip in low traction situations. A slipper clutch is also equipped as standard on the 450NK, and allows riders to use the gearbox more effectively when slowing down, without any concern of the rear wheel locking up.

Connectivity and Riding Experience

Up front, a 5-inch TFT curved display supports simple navigation projection, with a built-in shift light letting you know the optimum time to click into the next gear. An optional T-box also allows for easy smartphone connectivity, providing over-the-air updates, anti-theft and tracking capability as well as real-time viewing of the vehicle information through the CFMOTO RIDE app.



A Reserve Type C/Type-A charging port can also be added to conveniently service any smartphone charging needs.

The CFMOTO 450NK will be available in Nebula White and Zephyr Blue at authorized CFMOTO dealers in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Spain, and Great Britain in September 2023. The price of the model includes taxes but excludes transport costs and handling fees.
