One of my old post on CFMoto’s logo attracted some attention. Today 2 Stoke Buzz pointed to the logo as “solid clue towards the amount of careful thought that went into the machine“.
I can’t say much about their motorcycle since I had not ride them. But if you know the standard of quality in China, the comment is certainly not too far off.
On the other hand, we want to give credit to some companies are proactive in catching up with the quality chasm. Maybe CFMOTO is one of them. The change of logo is an indication of that determination.
(Note: I do not know, own or have any relationship with CFMoto except as a casual observer.)
