The
CF Moto JetMax pumps out a 16.5 Kw of power, runs fuel injection and is
liquid cooled. The engine has been built and developed in-house by CF
Moto. A unique credential in China, CF Moto chose and develop their own
engine. The JetMax has a long sloping front which is dominated by two
large headlights either side of a chrome grill. The touches of chrome
look smart and over time the styling actually grew on all of us. A round
on backside with an integrated set of LED lights.The dashboard is classic, the main feature being a large analogue dial for speed with digital elements for fuel and temp. Everything is easily visible at a glance, even the MP3 music controls sit nice and central. Speakers are with the tuners on both sides fitted. The switchgear is all above, it felt good and looked respectable.
The central tunnel between the feet houses the fuel filler. You enter the fuel manually by key, the cap is a simple screw on/off affair. The glovebox holds smaller loose items, here you will find the USB input for the MP3 player.
The seat is low 718 mm, the seat is too comfortable, a huge welcoming backrest supports the rider. The seat opens off the ignition key and opens to reveal a large storage area. It's one helmet - plus type storage, rectangle in shape and deep. The ignition comes with a slide over security feature that can be opened and closed by reversing the key.
Wheel size is 15 inch on the front and a 14 inch on the rear, Rear shocks are dual adjustable jobs.
Centre and side stand come as standard. Brakes are dual disc on the front (240mm) and single disc on the rear (220mm).
On the Road
With
CF Moto's JetMax 250 what immediately apparent is the available power
on tap. The JetMax in numerous off the line acceleration runs was just
behind Piaggio's X7 300, Impressive for a scooter with it's price point.
Top speed testing revealed a true GPS measured 130 km/h. The JetMax was
out about 8 km/h on the speedo, displaying a top speed of under 140
km/h.
Sitting above the speed of 140 and longer periods is relaxing, everyone agreed this produced the best from the engine. The JetMax sits low to the ground so immediately you feel comfortable and you find this one easy to manoeuvre even at low speeds. The JetMax holds an impressive heavy stable line at speed.
The dual front brakes are the key to stopping, On fast stretches you could easily get away with just using the rear brake anyway. Actually on fast sections of road, you could come into 60 km/h corners and use the CVT to slow. Once in and through the apex, full power, twist hard and away you go.
Talking of CVT transmissions, the JetMax could take off at any stage and letting you know it's doing its job. You become a little more comfortable once realising the JetMax comes with its own set of tunes.
The tyres do need to be replaced, you would love something with a softer compound, one it would help with grip and two it would help with ride quality.
