2025 CFMOTO IBEX 450 ZEPHYR BLUE

2025 CFMOTO Ibex 450 - Zephyr Blue

The 2025 CFMOTO Ibex 450 in Zephyr Blue is the debut edition of what many call the "unicorn" of the lightweight adventure world. For riders in the Greater Edmonton Area, the Zephyr Blue colorway offers a striking, high-visibility look that stands out against the Alberta skyline. While the 2026 model carries the torch, the 2025 version set the standard for what a sub-500cc ADV bike should be—rally-ready, technologically advanced, and incredibly agile in the dirt.

Rally-Inspired Performance

• 449cc Parallel-Twin Engine: Features a 270-degree crankshaft that mimics the sound and "thump" of a V-twin. It delivers 44 hp at 8,500 rpm and 32.5 lb-ft of torque at 6,250 rpm, providing smooth, tractable power for the loose gravel around Acheson.

• Dual Counterbalancers: This engine is remarkably smooth for its size, significantly reducing the handlebar vibration that usually plagues small-displacement adventure bikes during highway stints to St. Albert.

• CF-SC Slipper Clutch: The 2025 model includes a light-pull slipper clutch that prevents the rear wheel from locking up during aggressive downshifts on technical descents in Parkland County.

• Sealed Airbox: Designed for real-world adventure, the air intake is positioned high and well-sealed to protect the engine during creek crossings or in the dusty conditions of Central Alberta.

Off-Road Chassis & Componentry

• Fully Adjustable KYB Suspension: Comes factory-equipped with KYB inverted forks and a KYB multi-link rear shock, both offering 8 inches (200mm) of travel. Unlike many competitors, you can fully adjust preload, compression, and rebound to suit your weight and riding style.

• Premium Tubeless Wheels: Features a dirt-standard 21-inch front and 18-inch rear spoked wheelset. Most importantly, these are tubeless, allowing you to plug a puncture in minutes without removing the wheel—a massive advantage for solo riders in Leduc County.

• Switchable Bosch ABS: A dedicated handlebar button allows you to turn off the rear ABS on the fly, giving you the ability to slide the rear wheel into corners for better off-road navigation.

• Weight & Clearance: With a dry weight of 386 lbs (175 kg) and 8.7 inches of ground clearance, this bike is easy to handle when the trails get tight and technical.

Modern Technology & Comfort

• 5-Inch Curved TFT Display: A vivid, full-color dashboard with Bluetooth connectivity via the CFMOTO RIDE app. It provides navigation, vehicle tracking, and "Over-the-Air" (OTA) software updates.

• Adjustable Ergonomics: The seat height is standard at 32.3 inches, but the 2025 model features a built-in adjustable linkage that allows you to lower it to 31.5 inches without buying extra parts.

• On-the-Fly Windshield: The rally-style windscreen can be adjusted for height manually while riding, helping you block the wind on the highway and drop it for better visibility in the dirt.

• Standard Protection: The 2025 Zephyr Blue comes "trail-ready" with a heavy-duty aluminum skid plate, handguards, fold-away mirrors, and a radiator guard.
