CFMOTO 1000MT-X 2026

CFMOTO 1000MT-X 2026

With the 1000 MT-X, CFMOTO proves that a fully equipped adventure bike doesn't have to be expensive. The hardware installed is top-notch, and the handling hardly needs to shy away from comparison, both on and off the paved roads. However, the setup of the assistance systems is still lagging behind, and the traction control in particular is in urgent need of an update, which the manufacturer has promised. If you get this under control, you get a premium bike at an affordable price.

fully adjustable KYB suspension

harmonious, powerful engine

very good ergonomics

Apple Car Play works wirelessly

good Brembo brakes

Yamaha Tenere 700 2023

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
