2025 CF Moto Ibex 450 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in CF Moto's super motard motorcycle lineup, the 2025 CF Moto Ibex 450 relies on a 499 cc (30.5 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 44 HP (32.1 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 44.1 Nm (32.5 lb-ft) at 6,250 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 88.2 HP per liter and a 2,250 rpm working window between peak torque (6,250 rpm) and peak power (8,500 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.

On the scales, the Ibex 450 measures 175.1 kg (386 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.25 HP/kg (3.98 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 825 mm (32.5 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,506 mm (59.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 17.41-liter (4.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
