EFI ensures consistent starts in cold weather and better throttle response. It also optimizes fuel use, giving you longer rides between fill-ups.
Transmission and Drivetrain
CVTech Automatic Transmission
The CFORCE 550 uses a CVTech automatic CVT transmission with high/low range, neutral, reverse, and park. It’s responsive and handles power well on steep climbs or heavy loads.
2WD/4WD On-Demand
Switching between 2WD and 4WD is simple with the handlebar-mounted switch, allowing the rider to adapt instantly to changing terrain.
