CFMOTO 700MT 2026

CFMOTO 700MT 2026

The CFMOTO 700MT impresses as an affordable adventure touring bike with comfortable ergonomics, good riding performance and solid features. The engine offers linear power delivery, but requires revs. The suspension is comfortably setup and masters bumps with ease, while the high weight hardly disturbs during the ride. Weaknesses are evident in the brakes and at higher speeds due to increased vibrations. If you are looking for an uncomplicated, classic bike with good features at an attractive price, this is an interesting option.

Comfortable, touring-friendly riding position

Comfortable suspension with good setup for long distances

Neutral, effortless riding performance, easy to turn into corners

Good features for the price (TFT display, connectivity, traction control)

Excellent price-performance ratio

Engine requires high speeds for rapid propulsion High weight makes manoeuvring difficult

Pressure points (especially rear brakes) are spongy

Turbulence on the helmet despite adjustable disc

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.
