CFMOTO 650 MT 2021

Like Honda's CB500X and NC750X, the 650 MT is a touring enduro, but with 17/17 inch tyres it is completely focused on the road. However, the seating position is really pleasantly upright and the infinitely variable, tool-free height-adjustable windshield will work really well on trips. In any case, there will be no lack of electronics; apart from two riding modes and conventional ABS, there are no comfort features on board. But that doesn't matter, the things that matter on the 650 MT are absolutely successful: The engine revs readily and seems more powerful than it actually is, and the chassis, which can be adjusted in an astonishingly wide range of ways (rear spring preload, front and rear rebound damping), along with the snazzy USD fork, make riding really fun considering the low purchase price.

Good wind protection, a comfortable, somewhat higher seating position and a relatively comfortable chassis make the CB500X look good even on long journeys. The extra price compared to the naked CB500F is therefore justified and well invested - especially as the CB500X remains unbeatably affordable!

Sophisticated looks

high speeds possible

Combined ABS.

The front single disc is slightly weakened when driving in a sporty manner.
