CFMoto and KTM have enjoyed a close relationship since 2013. In that time, the Chinese marque leveraged Team Orange mills to power models such as the 800 MT adventure-tourer, 700 CL-X platform, and 1250 TR-G grand tourer. With the adventure, touring, and retro classes in tow, CFMoto set its sights on the sportbike category as of late.
The firm not only debuted in the Moto3 World Championship (on KTM machinery) in 2022, but it also pulled back the covers on its SR-C21 concept in November, 2021. By April, 2022, CFMoto opened bookings for the resulting production model, the 450SR. It seems like the company has bigger fish to fry in the coming years too.
