If you have a CFMoto 700 CL-X made between January 20, 2022 and February 2, 2023, then you might want to consider getting the thing checked for delayed braking.
Apparently, certain models show a latent ABS braking response when the bike’s handle is pumped more than twice. While this is a common enough occurrence for this to be a serious matter, rest easy – CFMoto has determined that the issue, while indeed serious, will probably only affect braking time by about 0.3 seconds.
Here are the VIN range of 700 CL-Xs affected:

According to the recall published to OEMDTC, around 1,374 CFMoto bikes have been affected by this recall, with the main concern being extended braking distance and greater chance of collision, as well as lack of visibility when required on a road.
Should you find yourself with a machine that falls in the above VIN range, we’re told that reparation will be performed at a dealership, where an update to the ABS system will provide a simple enough solution (CFMoto recommends using the DSCAN diagnostic system).
