Unleashing the 800MT-X
In the crowded world of adventure motorcycles, the CFMoto 800MT-X emerges as a beacon for budget-conscious riders. With a price tag of just £7999, it dares to challenge established giants in the hardcore adventure segment. What makes this machine so compelling? Let’s dive into what this two-wheeled contender offers to thrill-seekers.
A Tech-Loaded Performer
At the heart of the 800MT-X lies a powerful KTM-designed 799cc liquid-cooled parallel twin. This beast churns out a commendable 93.9bhp and a robust 63.5lb.ft of torque, ready to take on both paved roads and rugged trails. With features like ride-by-wire throttle, variable power modes, and even a quickshifter, CFMoto ensures you won’t be missing out on modern tech. The Bosch six-axis IMU elevates safety with angle-responsive ABS and traction control, giving you confidence even when tackling the toughest terrains.
Rugged Yet Comfortable
When it comes to off-road capabilities, the CFMoto 800MT-X doesn’t shy away. With fully adjustable long-travel suspension and spoked wheels designed for adventure, it’s built for those who dare to wander off the beaten path. But it doesn’t forget the long-distance touring enthusiasts; a 22.5-litre fuel tank, comfortable seat height options, and adjustable screens make it a viable companion for those who love to clock in miles. Plus, with accessories like hard panniers and crash protection, customizing your ride is easier than ever.
Scheduled for release by mid-2025 in striking nebula black or zephyr blue, the CFMoto 800MT-X is already making waves, with dealers in the UK taking pre-orders. Will it truly be the budget-friendly dirt destroyer that transforms the market? Only time will tell!
