ktm have a 49% stake in cf moto, jjuan is a subsidiary of brembo, bosch make all electronics for cf moto.. pretty good stuff for the price
That touchy Initial throttle response is exactly the same with my 890R
Whenever spoked wheels are mentioned, it's important to point out whether or not they are tubeless. By the looks of the valve stems, my guess is that they are indeed tubeless.
Le ruote sono tutte tubeless, solo moto cross enduro hanno camera d'aria o qualche max enduro col 21, ma le moto tutte sono tubeless
Specs say tubeless. But the other poster is very incorrect. A lot of bikes are tubed ie new transalp, all spoked enfields, vstrom, early v85tt, mg v7 specials… klr 650.
Nice review mate.i got 2 points for those interested. 1.KTM and cfmoto arent just in for the distribution.CFMOTO actually makes KTM engines,many videos of the production line can be found here in youtube. 2.The "little bit giddy" problem is solved with the latest firmware update they released about 2 months ago.Now you got full power from the moment you touch the throttle.
‘Hello my name is Joe Shmoe I’m standing in for Bob’… would be nice 😅😅😅
Jo-Šmo! Realy?
He's stood in before for Bob and has his own youtube channel. And does videos for Urban Free
Joseph Schmoseph - Bobs Bro-seph ??
Joe shmoe? Really? Show some respect. That’s rarified road and he rocks.
I have one in Australia and the only issue for me is the Jerkyness on low speed. The on off throttle can be improved a lot with better air filter sealing or aftermarket air filter.
exctly, i feel like he should've mentioned it because it was an issue i found when test riding one, that was the main issue i found while city riding and when letting the engine rev lower instead of pulling the clutch
They have pushed out a software update to re-do the throttle body mapping and smooth things out. You can even do the update through the app
@@steenmcnelliey Mine has all updates and the issue is not fixed. If it improves 10% it is not enough when the throttle is 50% worse then in other brands. I think it can be fixed only if something is replaced. People say that replacing the air filter with the DNA air filter improves a lot, but the issue is still there. The bike is great in other situations. The problem is the low speed fuelling only for me. When I know that I will get traffic I use my v Strom which is cooler and has a much better fuelling, and when travelling or mostly highway I use the cfmoto. It is far from a unicorn motorcycle.
its a prob with them all. mine is the same. BUT. its a great bike. got rid of that crap muffler , now it sounds mint, just like a kTm..
@@erosas887 Thanks for the info. I have had a similar fuelling stumble on V-stroms with aftermarket pipes. With stock pipe, no prob. I was looking at the 800MT touring as a replacement for 650 Strom as it is close in design ethos but wary of anything KTM for reliability concerns. Was also considering Triumph Tiger 900GT but it is overkill, expensive and inconvenient taking to Triumph to reset service warning reminders.
Dont forget to mention the 4 year warranty as well and luggage on the tourer included in the price
'linked in some way' - its literally the engine in the KTM 790 platform? Minus the different tuning/power output.
Please review the Sport!!! I need it!!
Its the same bike just cast wheels and less extras, but for less $$
Looks like competition for the TranAlp 750
Why not 4K
KTM own 49% of CFMoto - it is more than a distribution sharing arrangement.
very closely priced to Japan now
CFMOTO have a prototype sport version of this bike with Brembo's and premium suspension, looks like a modern KTM SMT or mini-multistrada. Very cool and they should launch that bike!
does it has traction control?
no
It's offered for just 7400 GBP in my country. For that price is a killer. For the price stated in the video - no way in hell.
Doesnt this cost pretty much the same as the 790 adv???
The 790 Adventure is £1300 less than the touring model - with a free Quickshifter! Thats a lot of spare change to get some nice KTM options ticked for sure
Depending on the country, the KTM costs the same or is even cheaper. Not to mention the Transalp. And the 800 MT easily consumes 5.5-6l/100km, it requires a remapping otherwise it can be jerky (google ECU update), sometimes has quickshifter problems, there is no traction control or cornering ABS which KTM has (CF moto only has an engine licence, without all the electronics). A pointless choice at this money.
This dude....I used to stumble upon him on yt....he just has that cool guy thing around him....I'm not gay by any means...but this dude is just cool...like should be on TV cool
I’d gotta wait at least 5 years just to see if its reliable
Main con for me is tires. It's not suitable for off-road at all. I dont understand why do you need cat protector and side protection for asphalt only. Would like to see Pirelli Rally Scorpion on that model. I think its more suitable.
It's mainly for looks but side protection is useful if you drop your bike or someone hits you it's better to replace the bars than half the bike.
i chew through 2 sets of tyres a year so i would never defer buying a bike just because it isnt wearing my favourite boots !
If the price is about the same, I will choose v Strom 800de
When did rob hire someone else ? 👀
Very Cool Great review…
Sounds like a good bike for the price.
Terrible bike for price - there are so many better ones for less money ...and that's without factoring in the terrible depreciation. And that's not considering supporting Chinese manufacturing and its environmental impact, recent history on Human rights and support of a wanted war criminal.
@@Hemlck I get it. If you don't like Chinese manufacturing, then you probably don't like KTM and most electronic gizmos. Like the computer or phone you're using.
Exactly that, nowadays if you try to avoid anything “made in China” you would get most of electronics world away from you… 😅
CfMoto bikes resale value in Asia drops by over 50% after 1 year which shows that it’s not a bike preferred by Asian riders . Japanese and some European and American model bikes are still the most valued bikes compared to chinese ones.
@@roobanloganathan6498 I don't picture U.S. built Indians and Harleys being popular in Asia.
Cfmoto 800 MT here in the Philippines best choice for this price range of 500,000.00 Pesos plus compare to suzuki, bristol, aprellia, and benelli
Until you try to sell it
The engine is pretty much ktm right?
It is the ktm engine.
Which you could get less money in an actual KTM for less money with a free quickshifter, loads of options and not suffer desperate depreciation!
@@Hemlck100% right ktm 790 duke is around 8.5k new and 2nd hand one with 300 miles are going for 5.5k
Depreciation is verryyyy high in Australia for cfmoto motorcycles. The 800mt costs $14900 new and the average price for sale just after leave the store is $11500, but there is one 2022 selling at the moment with 460km on the clock for $10000. Fuelling in low speeds is very disappointing to the level I thing some type of recall should be applied. On the highway it is fine, but for city riding you need to work the clutch a lot to move in low speeds.
Bob. You look funny. Did you do something with your hair?
A lot of bike for the money.Of course KTM isn't exactly a byword for reliability in the bike world, but never mind CFMoto, your warranty is double of theirs.
Sound clips for the upcoming performance exhaust system?.. just kidding some people are into sewing machines. 😅
Good value for money??? Really??? Compared to the Transalp or Tenere700? I can’t see them selling many..
I don't want Juan making my brakes
literally brembo brakes
I bought CFMOTO and man I regret it. Should have bought another Vstrom at least on the 6th Pstrom is out.
You bought none, stop spamming you cia clone.
Looks like the sport version is more expensive than the Honda Transalp, that doesn't make any sense to me. The Honda gets much better reviews, will more than likely be more dependable and it's cheaper. Why would you pick the Cf Moto???
I got a CFMoto and yes your right no one should buy these. Garbage Chinesium.
@@Happypillz yeah cia bot. You really bought them yeah..
You would have to be mad to pay £11,300 for this Chinese bike. Get the KTM 790 or Triumph 850 or Honda Transalp. Or save even more with vstrom 650. This is way overpriced new and will suffer terrible depreciation. These fly you out somewhere nice press junkets completely devalue the the credibility of the channel with gushing about this bike . Sorry but this is one misleading review too many 👎
The first thing anyone reviewing a Chinese bike says is about the price, just like an EV fanboy has to mention the acceleration of a Tesla.
agreed. would rather get an older jap or euro bike rather than pay for crap like this.
The bike is proven and you would have to be mad to still live in the past and think you need to mention the country of origin, as if it is a problem. There were people not so long ago talking about JapCrap all the time and look where that narrow minded, blinkered attitude led to. Look on KZhead for Jarda Sima CFMoto - the link i put in another comment.
Clown comment sinophobia bot spotted
Vstrom 800 and Tenere 700 need cruise control. I'd love to demo ride the CFMoto but demo rides seem to be a thing of the past in my neck of the woods.
For those doubting this bike and CFMoto in general take a look here. 86,000km in 18 months on one of these. He is away again now on a CLX-700 Adventure kzhead.info/sun/hNWAnauKgXRjfq8/bejne.html&feature=shares
Tubed tires? No thanks..
China
Chinese Adventure bikes. The Adventure is trying to get back! 🤣🤣 No China crap for me... The saying goes, "Cheap is what cheap gets" Nice riding adventure gear buy the way. 😂 Looks like he's ready for a Chinese bike adventure, ie, Hitchhiking....
Good luck getting parts. I had to wait 3.5 months for a stupid sensor.
Most of the tech in your life uses China crap lol calm down
1st comment
Its funny because KTM is legendary for issues and engine trouble on there street bikes ... at least here in the EU. I know 2 people that had there super dukes replaced with engine trouble after almost 1 year of back and forward with the dealer, what a disaster ... This chinese partnership both explains why and most likely why the the CF moto engines will be equally or more unreliable. And for that price wow... I was expecting a lot more. Realistically you might want to spend just a bit more for a Tiger 900 ...
Not in AU. the bikes here are great.
KTM has a bad name only because it's not Japanese and it's cheap , Other than that it's because a lot of teens buy it abuse it and sell it as it is. Ive had 8 KTM Now with 1290 gt No problem took care of them my self and did everything by the book. Much say I work in the army so each bike crossed the 100k km
@@itt-itamartechtime8867 I know for a fact that is untrue I have 2 friends that bought the super duke 2021 and 22 both had to have there bikes replaced after over 1h of back and forwarda beccauae of mtt failure the bikes shutoff at random. One almost died in a overtake. KTMs are mostly a joke when ot comes to reliability ...
Isnt ktm has discontinued 790 engine and replace it with 890 bcause this engine isnt reliable?
KTM make the 890, but they've just brought the 790 Adventure and Duke back this year and have CFMOTO making them out in China. They're supposed to be similar to the 890s but a bit cheaper
At some time soon Chinese bikes will rival European bikes. Look all apple hardware r made in china and no one thinks about quality . Fortnine review of engines found Chinese engines by far the worse for debris. This is the chap from urban rider Andy be useful to be a bit more objective about the bike
I would rather spend my £12,000 on a triumph scrambler tbh..
