This is a great review. Simple and to the point. You've done a lot of kilometres in a short time. I'd be interested to hear any comments you have on any off road riding, if you have done any. I'm looking at replacing my 850 GS in the future and this bike is a great price with many included features. Thanks for the video
i agree what you say about the output power. Since the engine is based on the KTM 790 i dont understand why they detuned it for the CFmoto. The KTM has about 10 HP more aand about 10 Nm more. It would be nice they do that for the CFmoto. For the looks i also agree it is a very beautiful looking bike
Hi MJ, I live in Australia and the CFMOTO 800 MT I think, is now is available in Australia? Thank you for your review, the CFMOTO brand seems to be coming along quite nicely
U Should consider riding down to Southeast Asia all the way down to Singapore where its hot n humid to really put the bike to the test. There are CFmoto distributor in Malaysia n Singapore. No worries about mechanical support.
Hello, thank you for the review. It helped me making my choice. Now that i have the MT800 I am disturbed by turbulance around my helmet. I have two things I want to adjust but I don't know where you bought your aftermarket windscreen. Can you help me with that.? Maybe I find a sister compagnie that will sent it to Belgium. I find the mappings a bit enoying but I will ask my cf dealer If he can get the software. The on-off feeling is bigger in the sport-modus. The rain modus seems to be better but than i have less power. So thank you again. Good video. Thumps up!
The ktm 790 has problems with the clutch, specifically with the oiljet clogging. Have you checked the part for clogging? Also had problems with the petrol reservoir What problems have you faced so far? Thanks 4 the answers in advance
Great video,great bike! 👍hallo from Serbia balkan Europe 🖐😎 A lot of chinesse people here,great people! So,I want to ask just one question...is it possible to achieve low mielage on the open nice flat road at 80,90kmh in 6gear..for example 3,7 3,8 L/100km???
Hi, what about reliability? Any oil leaks like on KTM 790 ADV? In the previous video you wrote back in the comments that fuel consumption was 6l/100km, has anything changed? Can you give minimum and maximum fuel consumption?
11,000 KM in two months is a fairly good amount of mileage in a short time. It would be good to know how it holds up over a couple of winters, being exposed to rain and cold, etc. This video is about 1 year old. Can you post a follow-up video to tell us how the bike is after one year?
Hey MJ, thank you for the great and informative review. Always refreshing, to have a review from an experienced owner. I am just about to take delivery of this bike in Sydney, Australia. I think I feel, I will be interested in the taller/wider windscreen that you installed on your bike. This windscreen is not listed anywhere that I am searching. Could you please do me a favour and give me the reference/link to the windscreen supplier that you used?
@@twowheelnirvana hi. Depends on how challenging the off-road sections are that you intend to ride vs the road sections. The Tenere can handle the more challenging offroad sections better and faster than the 800MT. The 800MT will go most places the Tenere can, but at a slower pace as its suspension travel and ground clearance is less than the Tenere. On road, the 800MT is much superior to the Tenere, has better electronic suite for performance/safety. More power, effortless cruising + cruise control, better wind management and protection. The 800MT handling on the curves is also better than the Tenere. The suspension on the 800MT can also handle a pillion and luggage better the Tenere. Pillion Passenger comfort is better on the 800MT. I guess you have to be honest about your off road capabilities, the type of off road work you are going to do and the pace at which you are going to do it. Tenere is a 50% offroad/50% road kind of bike. 800MT is a 25% off road/75% road. I looked at both and chose the 800MT as I ride on road for 75% of the time. Value for money, in Australia the 800MT is $14,490.00. The Tenere is $17,800.00. So the Tenere is about $3,300.00 more expensive. Also Tenere does not have: -Cruise Control -Heated Grips -Heated Riders seat -Fog Lights -2 modes, Rain & Road (Off-road mode is said to be added on in the next 12 months) -7” TFT Screen -Cornering ABS -Quick shifter (up/down) -6 axis IMU -Side Crash Bars -Centre Stand -Tyre Pressure monitors -On board computer Etc etc, I’d hate to think what the Tenere would cost if up specced with all these features. If you like a lively/sportier road performance, the 800MT is your bike. If you like a simpler, more linear powered off-road capable dirt bike, the Tenere is your choice. To me, for my needs, the 800 MT was a clear winner. (BTW, the 800MT is a sister bike to the Husqvarna Nordern 901). Hope this helps 😊
@@drchicca thank you so so much my friend, appreciate that detailed review. My name is David and I'm from Sydney as well 🙂. I aim to see test ride the bike this weekend and book it if it checks out. And to be truthful although I may want to ride some crazy off-road, I'm more the tourer. But love to go off-road every now and then. I totally feel the CF will suit my requirements as well. Tha ks so much for the write up. If I do the get the bike soon Il be happy if we can do a ride together. TC stay safe.
I really wanted this bike, but the showroom hd none to look at. Didn't want to take a blind shot, so I ended up ordering 2022 Klr650 adventure. I know it's much older tech and very low on power compared to this but, at least I won't lose my license here in Australia 🦘🌏 on that.
Hello! Could you please share web page where I can find those accessories that you put on your bike....I would go with exactly the same things but cannot find nothing online ... I am from Croatia...thank you in advance
just got to ride my 2023 ... the only things i have a problem with is.. the quickshifter is terrifying..if your slowing to take a right..say 25mph in second, and you accidentally touch the shifter with your boot it lunges forward from the throttle blip because it thinks you wanted to downshift. it really hits the throttle, if your going at a slower speed and downshift clutchless it locks the rear tire... the quickshifter needs alot of refinement, i have disabled my QS because its terryifing and dangerous to be honest.. the last thing is the throttle 1500 to 5500 rpm the throttle us super touchy, very sketchy in a turn, if you hit a bump in a turn the throttle is so sensitive your arm moves and gives a very small input to the throttle...that if you dont watch what your doing you will lowside.. im going to make another throttle spring to try to stiffen the throttle and get a retune, it is super lean ..
@mjwalkabout8737 you are correct sir..problem is pulling the clutch lever does not cancel qs and it really should..but its still a great bike just have to learn to ride it the way it is..
can you get lower seat than 825mm? thing is I am shorter at 170cm and i am looking to buy this but im worried it may be too tall. For reference i have the leoncino 500 Road version and I am already a bit tip toe on that.
Thank you for braving 4 degree weather to give us this review. This was very informative. I’m thinking of getting this bike here in Australia
Thanks for taking the time to do the video. Very informative, thanks.
Thanks for the review MJ, good content like this on CF Moto is pretty rare.

Wonderful review bro, ive got this adv bike in my sights to purchase but im still researching for insights like this
Nice review. Short, straight to the point. :D This bike has my attention and you got a sub. :D
Hi Mi nice to find a owner review as theses are coming to uk soon and I am looking to trade up from Benelli 502 👍🏻

Thx mate, enjoy your new bike
Great video and very informative! Do you still have the bike? How is the engine and overall reliability?

How is the bike doing now, a year later? Thank you for these videos!
Hi MJ, I live in Australia and the CFMOTO 800 MT I think, is now is available in Australia?
Thank you for your review, the CFMOTO brand seems to be coming along quite nicely
Great video. what about fuel consumption in normal riding conditions? Thank you
I just got mine yesterday, so far 200 miles, just love it, many years off fun to look forward to.
mj keep doing videos on the 800mt...really looking forward to purcashing this... looking forward on other aspect on the bike from your view.
Wow, 11K kms! Impressive & great you still like it Aussie 😉🇦🇺
I want one, i am not an off roader, but would want one anyway, i do alot of country roads, love it, price is dope😎👊🏾
Hey MJ, Good video. I think the bike really looks good.
Thanks for the review
Good review. Thanks.
I am thinking of adding that to my stable or a softail.
Very good thanks for being honest
Hey thank you!
Nice bike
Nice review
what is fuel consumption in city in mixed or on autoban on 130kmh?
Nice video, it's a pretty good bike
U Should consider riding down to Southeast Asia all the way down to Singapore where its hot n humid to really put the bike to the test. There are CFmoto distributor in Malaysia n Singapore. No worries about mechanical support.
Can you send a link to the wind screen?
cool explain, best regards f. Berlin- GS made house
Hey MJ! Easily the BEST review for 800MT…. Otherwise excellent as well! Thanks a lot bro!

Also had problems with the petrol reservoir
What problems have you faced so far?
Thanks 4 the answers in advance
Not finding the neutral is when you have the oiljet clogged you probably going to burn the cluctch!
Thanks mate! No other issues so far
Great video,great bike! 👍hallo from Serbia balkan Europe 🖐😎 A lot of chinesse people here,great people! So,I want to ask just one question...is it possible to achieve low mielage on the open nice flat road at 80,90kmh in 6gear..for example 3,7 3,8 L/100km???
Thank mate! Theoretically u could get 400kms with 19L if u do 90kmh all the way
Flat road, @ 80-90kmh
-cruising in 6th gear
-no headwind
onboard computer says that
-I achieve 3.5 - 4.0L/100km.
-I’m averaging 5.2L/100km overall (done 500km so far, so not yet run in).
Hi, what about reliability? Any oil leaks like on KTM 790 ADV? In the previous video you wrote back in the comments that fuel consumption was 6l/100km, has anything changed? Can you give minimum and maximum fuel consumption?
祖传漏油 必然要漏 城市6L 国道4L
No leaks or anything for me. 19L Maximum 380kms / Minimum 340kms
Do you have any trouble shifting from 1st to 2nd gear? Others say it always goes to nuetral
Yes. But it get better after 2000kms for me
Hey there! So how is the fuel consumption now? Did it get any better than the 6L/100km you had at first before the break in period?
Now I’m getting 5L, 4.5L on highway doing 90kms
@@mjwalkabout8737 that's a really decent consumption for that beast! Thanks!
Nice review! What is the valves adjustment interval?
Not too sure! Normally about 25skm
@@mjwalkabout8737 Someone informed me 30000km.Thanks anyway, ride safe...
how much is this in China? do they sell for export?
Hello my friend!!! can you tell us how many liters of fuel consumption per 100 kilometers 😊

Keep writing thank you!
where did you get your windshiled?
AliExpress
Was hoping you have taken it off road & dropped it a few times , like a real adventure bike. 😆
Dude speaks good english
And I just want to tell one info..in Serb here 10000 euro is the price for touring full spec
Too expensive. $12,000 AUD in Australia for the touring version but no luggage
Here 16k, KTM 890 around 25..
Touring version in Australia is now $14,490. First shipment is completely sold out.
This or the 700 clx or the leoncinon 800. That's what I will. Be buying next
Definitely the CFMoto
@@unclejohn5012 why? Bcos of the dealer network is better I guess...but the Leo looks edgier.
Bro. What your tall height . ? I wonder my height 190cm , the windshield can cover my height..
I’m 180, you need a taller windshield
can you get lower seat than 825mm? thing is I am shorter at 170cm and i am looking to buy this but im worried it may be too tall. For reference i have the leoncino 500 Road version and I am already a bit tip toe on that.
U may wanna try the bike before you buy
how tall are you michael?
180cm
you have to compare it with Kove 800X, QJ 750 or Trk 800. At 70k RMB, it's not a good choice. you could go for a second hand KTM790 or Kawa 650
They’re all heavy bikes, at least we have more choices
why to buy a second hand ktm 790 which is very ugly?Kawa versys 650 is a good bike but not equiped ,,800 mt is a very good vfm

20 times lower resale???Why?If the bike will be reliable will keep a good resale price
stopped watching when you mentioned multistrada and AT in this review, that's not what this motorcycle contends with.
