I’m pretty sure I would like to go with cfmoto for my first bike. Their features and price are very attractive. Plus many local dealers carry them. Anyways, I’m struggling to decide between a sport bike or a naked style bike. I’m thinking the 675 model would be great to grow into as I learn.

I like the styling and design of the sport but I’ve seen in videos that sometimes they can be uncomfortable. To me it seems the naked would be less comfortable but I have no real experience with moto just mountain biking.

Any thoughts from more experienced riders? Or maybe anyone that owns one of them? Thanks in advance.

@Labotomized
As someone who owns an Ibex 450 and loves it (for sport touring only though), I'm biased. I got it for my first bike and I'd heavily consider an Ibex 800 for the future. Great value, and the accessories can be gotten for cheap.
