It would be fair to say that if it’s whistles and bells, you’re after, then the new CFMoto 800MT Explore should be a serious contender, with its array of impressive features and rider aids. These include a Combined Anti-lock Braking System (C-ABS) with traction and electronic stability control, rearward-facing radar technology which helps facilitate the blind spot detection, lane change assist and rear collision warning systems.
Under the heading of connectivity is a new 8in colour display featuring Apple CarPlay, which provides smartphone and Bluetooth connectivity, voice control, navigation, and music library functionality. Here, riders can also access six different ride modes, each offering a unique combination of torque output and traction control intervention to suit varying road conditions, abilities, and preferred riding styles.
Oh, and did we mention the intuitive switchgear? This allows riders to easily toggle between the heated seat and heated grip settings on the move, each offering three levels of warmth. The parallel-twin 799cc motor with Power Assisted Slipper Clutch (PASC) and bi-directional Quickshifter are also on the spec list, which goes on and on…
The CFMoto 800MT Explore is available in Starry white and Gem black colourways and retails for £11,990 OTR.
