Why are there no threads about new bikes?

Yeah, and I am sure it's a decent bike too. Component wise the quality may be on par with the Japanese stuff in the same bracket.

It's still down on power at 29hp, 7 less than the RZ3S, and more expensive.

Then there is the Elephant in the room nobody wants to talk about. Resale - both value and ease of doing so.

Used 300 to 400cc class bikes are hot on the second hand market, so they sell for just a few hundred less than new. The CF Moto and the RZ3S wouldn't hold that kind of value, and won't attract the same number of buyers.

A great example of this is the Genuine G400C. Arguably not a bad bike, but it is a slow seller. A dealer in Kansas City still has 3 2020's in stock, brand new. They won't sell because they won't come down on the price at all. Put them at 3k and I bet they would all sell in short order.
