Caofen F80 On-Road Electric Motorcycle Canada

The Caofen F80 On-Road GL is the long-range, mixed-surface version of the F80. It has the biggest battery in the lineup and a more road-friendly setup than the off-road YE. Caofen lists an 8,000W motor, about 260 Nm of rear-wheel torque, a 72V 48Ah battery, battery heating, and an IP67 rating.

The GL makes the most sense when range matters more than maximum off-road pull.

It is not street legal as sold. Treat it as an electric motorcycle for private land and permitted areas.

• Largest battery in the F80 lineup with a 72V 48Ah pack for stronger long-range potential
• Top speed up to 85 km/h

• Road-oriented tire setup makes the GL more suitable for pavement and mixed-surface use than the YE
• About 260 Nm of rear-wheel torque for strong pull
• Fast charging supports shorter downtime than many battery-heavy electric motos
• IP67 weather resistance
• Battery heating and immersion cooling for cold-weather riding

The F80 On-Road GL is not the highest-torque F80, but its 8,000W motor still makes it a real electric motorcycle, far beyond any e-bike.

It is tuned for longer mixed-surface rides more than hard trail riding, so it can spend more time on pavement and gravel roads.

The 72V 48Ah battery is the defining feature of the GL version. Caofen rates it for up to 150 km at a steady 30 km/h, which makes it the long-range choice in the F80 family. That larger battery is exactly why riders would choose the GL over the more dirt-focused YE.

Real Canadian range will depend on speed, rider size, terrain, weather, and how aggressively the bike is ridden. Buyers should treat the biggest range number as a best-case claim. Even after that adjustment, the GL still stands out as the F80 variant with the strongest long-distance potential.

• Mixed-surface setup that is easier to live with than the off-road YE
• Motorcycle-size frame and wheels for a planted ride
• IP67 weather resistance
• Battery heating and immersion cooling for a wider temperature range
• Ground clearance and suspension travel for broken pavement and light off-road surfaces
• Full protective gear is a must at these speeds

The GL version’s biggest strength is range and versatility. It gives you the biggest battery in the F80 lineup, a more road-friendly setup, and a better fit for riders who want to spend more time on mixed terrain without thinking constantly about charging.

The tradeoffs are that it is not the dirt-first torque king of the lineup, it is not street legal as sold, and it still belongs to buyers who understand the gap between a moto platform and a normal e-bike purchase. Verdict: the GL is the smartest F80 for riders who want the broadest-use, longest-range version, but not the best fit for someone whose only goal is aggressive trail riding.

Buy the F80 On-Road GL if you want the longest-range and most versatile version of the Caofen F80 platform. It is especially attractive for buyers who want more pavement usability, more battery reserve, and a mixed-surface electric moto rather than a trail-first setup.

Skip it if your priority is maximum off-road torque, the lightest F80 feel, or a truly road-registered motorcycle from the start. It is not street legal as sold.
