Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha Tenere 700 2023

The Tenere 700 now has competition and, due to the simultaneous price increase, is no longer the big sensation it was a few years ago. But as soon as the bike turns off-road, you are simply thrilled in the saddle. The bike is tough and masters even demanding passages very reliably. A really good adventure motorbike. However, if you pretend to be an adventurer and only ride on tarmac, you could make your life easier with a different bike.

very robust and reliable appearance

sporty and sleek appearance

playful riding performance

amazingly sporty and fun engine

good workmanship

good suspension with a practical adjustment range

Relatively low weight compared to other touring enduros

very tough

ABS disengageable

very off-road capable

very good ergonomics

Not very comfortable on longer tours

Brakes feel a little lax on tarmac

Very short equipment list in terms of electronics

Load changes at low revs

the operating concept with the fiddly wheel was not well received during the test

Clutch modulation not on a par with the competition in practice

CFMOTO 800MT 2022

If you look at the equipment list of the 800MT, especially the Touring version, you will be amazed at how much can be fitted as standard in a comparatively inexpensive mid-range touring enduro. The pannier system even scores with a smart lining for the panniers and top case. The chassis and brakes are good, the engine could be a little livelier and jerk less when cold, but overall the performance is good. However, the 800MT is by no means flawless. The technicians definitely need to improve the shift assistant and the menu navigation could be simpler. Visually, however, there is not much to complain about; the cooperation with Kiska-Design pays off!

Comfortable seating position

good brakes

good handling

comfortable chassis

extensive equipment

attractive design.

Shift assistant too sluggish for sporty driving

no traction control

engine jerks when cold

complicated menu navigation

cruise control only up to 130 km/h
