A motorcycle inspired by MotoGP: the CF Moto 450 SR Aspar Replica in a very limited edition
For some time now, CF Moto has been gaining ground and launching models that truly impress. With the 450 SR, we already had a small sport bike that performed its function well, but now they have raised the bar even higher. GP Paint, competition accessories, rear-set controls… Everything is designed to make you feel like you’re riding a Grand Prix machine. So, is this replica really worth it?
An engine that has proven its worth
Under the sharp fairing of this CF Moto 450 SR Aspar Replica, we find the famous parallel twin-cylinder engine of 449 cc. This block, developed in-house by CF Moto, has proven its worth across the entire 450 range of the Chinese manufacturer. From the trail MT 450, the roadster NK 450, the custom CL450, and, of course, the SR 450, it has managed to convince everyone with its comfort and ease of use. It’s a bike that responds instantly, without complications from overly intrusive electronics, and maintains a natural feel thanks to a good cable fuel injection management system. In short, pure and simple pleasure.
An aesthetic made for the track
Where this 450 SR Aspar Replica truly shines is in its aesthetic. CF Moto hit the mark by presenting a paint job that replicates that of the Aspar team in Grand Prix. This gives this small sport bike an appearance of a machine that just rolled out from the paddocks. Add a high-protection tinted windshield and competition rear-set controls with ultra-grippy fixed footpegs, and you have a genuine track bike homologated for the road.
A very exclusive series
If you’re looking for something different and want a motorcycle that won’t be seen at every traffic light, the CF Moto 450 SR Aspar Replica is for you. With only 451 units produced worldwide, it will quickly become a collector’s item. It is still unknown how many units will arrive in the United States, but one thing is for sure: they will sell like hotcakes!
A price still unknown, but it will be high
If the standard version of the 450 SR-S is priced at €7,199, it is safe to say that this Aspar Replica will be more expensive. The question is: how many additional dollars will be needed to acquire this gem? CF Moto has yet to communicate the exact price, but a price around $8,000 can be expected. A bit steep for a 450 cc, but with its equipment and exclusivity, it is likely to find buyers.
