Tom Dickson puts the new CFMoto X500 Farm Spec to the test to find out if it's worthy of a place on the options list for Aussie farmers.
The new Farm Spec version of the CFMoto X500 quad bike proves a strong contender in the race to the top for Tom Dickson.
At a reasonable price, the CFMoto provides good value in its handy features, and despite being a relative newcomer to the market, has the ability for some rugged work.
Tom has good things to say about the X500’s acceleration and engine braking ability, but reckons a smaller turning circle would benefit the quad on properties with tight areas.
“Keep in mind, it’s about $5000 below the cost of its direct competition which, I feel, makes it really good value for money,” Tom says.
