CFMOTO 800MT-X 2025

CFMOTO 800MT-X 2025

The CFMOTO 800 MT-X surprises with a cultivated engine, a lot of control in the suspension and handling that seems far lighter than the data would suggest thanks to its low centre of gravity. In practice, it rides in a balanced, confidence-inspiring manner and offers a lot of features for the money. Minor weaknesses in the electronic logic, the operating quality and the lack of torque in the centre remain, but do little to change the strong overall impression. All in all, it is an honest, versatile adventure bike that does not quite reach premium level, but is a real and serious alternative in terms of price and riding experience.

Excellent value for money

Fully adjustable suspension

Cultivated LC8c twin cylinder with strong lower and upper rev range

Surprisingly agile handling thanks to low tank and centre of gravity

Modern features as standard, where you have to pay extra for premium brands: Quickshifter, tyre pressure sensors, Motion Alert, Find My function

Noticeable rev gap between 5000-7000 rpm

switch quality and feel below premium level

cruise control cannot be deactivated by throttle reversal

navigation integration via the app cumbersome

BMW F 800 GS 2008

BMW F 800 GS 2008

For us, the 800 GS is not a small GS, but a GS for non-BMW fans. So in principle it combines the virtues of the 1200 without its quirks, as newcomers would say.

Low price

positive ride comfort

beginner-friendly

low weight

relatively luxurious.

Annoying background noise in the (necessary) high rev range

no optional extras of the big GS
