CFMoto 250 NK

The CF Moto 250NK is a huge step-up from the more affordable 150NK, thanks to its super aggressive and much sportier design language, which makes it look comparable to even some of the middleweight naked roadsters priced almost double of it.

The pointy impression of the CF Moto 250NK can be sensed the moment you see the motorcycle head-on, with the robo-face headlamp, which is a full LED unit and is partitioned from the middle with a cool looking H-shaped cowl. The upper corners of this headlamp unit are mounted with sleek looking LED turn indicators, in the middle of which sits a very small crown-like visor. Even the short front fender does its job nicely in making the motorcycle minimalist but cutting-edge in appearance. 

From the side, the CF Moto 250NK looks at its best, with razor-sharp body panels and pointy looking tail section. The long and inclined looking fuel tank with angular knee recesses and Y-shaped fuel tank at the lower bottom edges of it do their job in making the CF Moto 250NK look bulky and sporty to the fullest.

The thunder-shaped side body cowls hide the partially exposed trellis frame beneath them, below which sits the engine which is partly finished in black as well as golden themes. The engine bay looks compressed and heavy, thanks to the presence of stubby engine cowls as well as the underbelly exhaust pipe.

What catches your fancy even more towards the CF Moto 250NK is the naked aggression in its tail section, which sharply rises towards the rear, while accommodating the small split pillion seat as well as small clear lens LED tail lamp. The rear tire hugger which has the license plate mounted on it, along with the cantilever type swing-arm for the rear wheel, further enhance the aggressive stance of the motorcycle especially when viewed from the rear three-quarter angle.

Another interesting aspect of the CF Moto 250NK is its rectangular full TFT instrument console, which has multiple display modes that differ on the basis of display themes and colors. This interesting and cool looking screen has information related to the speedometer, tachometer, fuel gauge, trip meters, odometer, gear indicator, battery indicator, temperature gauge, and selected ride mode.

Not only the visual appeal of the CF Moto 250NK makes it a very compelling package, but also its basic mechanical package under the skin as well. The motorcycle is equipped with upside-down hydraulic telescopic forks at the front and a fully adjustable mono-shock at the rear, with disc brakes at both ends. 

The CF Moto 250NK sources its power from a four-stroke, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected, 249cc engine, which was born essentially as a bored-out version of the 149.5cc engine of the 150NK. Here on the CF Moto 250NK, the engine is paired to a 6-speed gearbox and makes 26.5 PS of maximum power and 22 Nm of maximum torque outputs.

The CF Moto 250NK is possibly the most affordable motorcycle in the Philippine bike market to feature multiple ride modes (including rain and sport), which enables the rider to use the full potential of the engine and its power delivery. Apart from that, the CF Moto 250NK is bestowed with dual-channel ABS, backlit switchgear, and engine kill switch.

The super aggressive stance and cool equipment list of the CF Moto 250NK are reasons compelling enough to allure the target audience of the motorcycle. But the CF Moto 250NK does not end up here only, as it manages to further impress with its premium engine and mechanical hardware, thus making it an impeccable value for money proposition.
