SWM SM 500 R 2022 vs. CFMOTO 650 MT 2021

CFMOTO 650 MT 2021

Like Honda's CB500X and NC750X, the 650 MT is a touring enduro, but with 17/17 inch tyres it is completely focused on the road. However, the seating position is really pleasantly upright and the infinitely variable, tool-free height-adjustable windshield will work really well on trips. In any case, there will be no lack of electronics; apart from two riding modes and conventional ABS, there are no comfort features on board. But that doesn't matter, the things that matter on the 650 MT are absolutely successful: The engine revs readily and seems more powerful than it actually is, and the chassis, which can be adjusted in an astonishingly wide range of ways (rear spring preload, front and rear rebound damping), along with the snazzy USD fork, make riding really fun considering the low purchase price.
