Pros and Cons in comparison

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.

Suzuki V-Strom 1000 2015

Suzuki V-Strom 1000 2015

In the large enduro segment, the Suzuki V-Strom 1000 occupies the position of the cheapest offer, yet you don't have to do without anything - even traction control and ABS are included as standard. Excellent brakes, great comfort and a wonderfully powerful V-twin engine are ingredients that should please almost everyone. The fact that it doesn't play in the top league with 100 hp is made up for by the wonderful power delivery, which ensures a relaxed climate on long journeys. Only the wind protection is not optimal with the original windshield; one should invest in the affordable, somewhat larger windshield.

Powerful engine

traction control as standard

very good brakes

taut yet comfortable chassis

great touring capability

complete instrumentation

Windshield creates turbulence on the head

the engine runs out of breath in the upper rev range, arbitrary optics
