Overview

Introducing the 2009 CF Moto V5 Sport Cruiser, a motorcycle that elegantly blends style and functionality for riders seeking a custom-cruiser experience. Positioned for both novice and experienced motorcyclists, the V5 Sport Cruiser is an excellent entry point into the world of cruising. With its streamlined design and approachable dimensions, this bike is perfect for urban commuting or weekend getaways, offering a unique aesthetic that stands out in a sea of conventional cruisers. At the heart of the V5 Sport Cruiser lies a robust 250cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine. Producing 18 horsepower at 5,500 RPM and a torque of 16.5 Nm at the same rev range, this motorcycle provides a satisfying blend of power and agility. Riders will appreciate the smooth automatic gearbox and the belt final drive, making it a breeze to handle in city traffic while still allowing for a top speed of 128.7 km/h (80 mph) on open roads.

The V5 Sport Cruiser is equipped with a sturdy steel frame, offering stability and durability. The oil-damped front suspension and twin spring adjustable rear suspension work in tandem to provide a comfortable ride, absorbing bumps with ease. The bike features reliable braking systems, with single disc brakes at the front and rear that are easily controlled by hand. Notably, its ground clearance of 140 mm and a seat height of just 686 mm make it accessible for riders of varying heights, ensuring comfort and confidence while cruising. The electric starter adds a modern touch to this classic cruiser, while the striking silver color option enhances its visual appeal. **
