Pros and Cons in comparison
BMW F 450 GS 2026
The BMW F 450 GS Trophy is far more than just a scaled-down version of the full-size GS. It combines accessible A2-licence-friendly power with a surprising amount of riding pleasure, high-quality features and genuine adventure flair. The new twin-cylinder engine impresses with its character, whilst the Easy Ride Clutch noticeably makes everyday riding and light off-road riding easier, without taking control away from the rider. The little GS is particularly at home on winding roads, gravel tracks and rough mountain passes. Its limitations become apparent at motorway speeds, during heavy off-road use, when carrying a payload and in terms of wind protection. Nevertheless, there’s a surprising amount of GS in the F 450 – a well-rounded everyday and touring companion for beginners, those returning to motorcycling and experienced riders who deliberately want to avoid excessive weight and power.
CFMOTO 450MT 2025
The CFmoto 450MT is a compelling choice as a lightweight and comfortable bike for adventure touring enthusiasts seeking a good balance between size and weight. It offers satisfactory engine performance for off-road use. On the road, the twin-cylinder engine needs plenty of revs to get going, yet performs with confidence. The build quality and appearance are impressive, and the engine’s power delivery is linear and easy to control, apart from the load-change reactions. Minor criticisms concern the suspension, which reaches its limits under heavy use. Overall, the CFmoto 450MT offers good value for money and is an attractive choice for riders looking for a reliable and well-equipped enduro bike.
