CFMOTO 1000MT-X 2026

CFMOTO 1000MT-X 2026

The CFMOTO 1000MT-X 2026 is a remarkably well-equipped adventure bike for budget-conscious touring riders. Its smooth-running in-line twin-cylinder engine, relaxed riding position, effective wind protection and enormous payload make long stages a breeze. It remains good-natured and predictable even on winding roads and simple gravel tracks. Yet, the affordable price is noticeable: the suspension provides less refined feedback, the ergonomics feel passive when riding sportily, and, above all, the traction control is rather coarse. Occasional quickshifter glitches and intense engine heat on the lower legs detract from the overall experience. However, for riders who prefer to cruise rather than ride at the limit, this is still an exceptional value for money.

smooth and responsive throttle response

high riding comfort

very high payload

Apple CarPlay and offline navigation on the touchscreen

well-balanced handling on tarmac and light gravel

very attractive price

coarse traction control

occasional quickshifter glitches

suspension lacking in finesse

ergonomics too passive for sporty riding

significant engine heat on the lower legs

power only really kicks in at higher revs

Husqvarna Norden 901 Expedition 2025

Husqvarna Norden 901 Expedition 2025

The basic model of the Husqvarna Norden already has a lot to offer, but the new "Expedition" manages to go one better with its improved chassis and additional equipment. It is as versatile as a Swiss army knife. There is hardly a task it doesn't seem up to. Precise and sporty on the road, and equally robust and confidence-building off-road. A real do-it-all machine! Considering the extensive additional equipment, not least the price seems to be in order compared to the basic North. With a view to the even sportier KTM 890 Adventure R, it should be noted that Husqvarna also remains somewhat more faithful to the idea of comfort with the Expedition.

High-quality and fully adjustable chassis

great comfort in the saddle

improved off-road capabilities

top-of-the-range equipment as standard

powerful yet smooth-running engine

agile geometry

good fuel consumption figures

high-quality appearance and finish.

874mm seat height critical for small people

no USB slot in cockpit

standard soft luggage not top quality
