Vrooming from Victory Day parade to massive China and US markets

One of the abiding memories of the Victory Day parade on Sept 3 last year in Beijing was the spectacular guard of honor by security personnel mounted on 45 gleaming, powerful, white-and-red motorcyles.

The CF650G, which was designated as the official escort motorcycle for World War-II veterans, is among a range of two- and four-wheeled power sports vehicles produced by Zhejiang CFMoto Power Co Ltd, a Hangzhou-based manufacturer.

The company already accounts for more than 50 percent share of the Russia market for power sports vehicles. Now, it is setting its sights on potentially big markets in China and the United States.
