Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Suzuki V-Strom 650 XT 2024

Suzuki V-Strom 650 XT 2024

The V-Strom 650 XT may be getting on a bit, but it's still a good bike. Especially if you don't need a colour display and don't intend to leave the paved road. The 650 is an easy motorbike to ride and is hardly ever out of its depth. What's more, this model has already proven itself a zillion times over, which underlines its durability and longevity.

Simple, uncomplicated bike

proven technology

good price/performance ratio

Design and equipment are a bit outdated

very limited off-road capability

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
