New Chinese bike brand Kove Moto caused a bit of a stir at the Adventure Bike Rider Festival last month with its range of new high-spec adventure touring models when it revealed some aggressive pricing for the 800X Pro and 510X models, undercutting its Far-Eastern-made rivals as well as competitive European adventure brands.
Kove Moto UK’s Lee Westbrook announced the pricing, commenting: “We are now able to confirm the recommended retail pricing for both the 800X Pro and the 510X. The 800X Pro has a recommended retail price of £8499, while the 510X will be available for £5999.”
Kove launched two new models at the ABR Festival last monthThe new Kove Moto 800X Pro features a 799cc parallel-twin DOHC engine producing 95hp at 9000rpm and 80Nm at 7500rpm housed in a lightweight 185kg chassis with KYB adjustable suspension, a 21in front wheel, 18in rear wheel and 275mm of ground clearance, TFT dash, aluminium sump guard and crash bars. Meanwhile, the smaller 510X model uses a 498cc parallel-twin DOHC engine making 46hp and also has KYB suspension, Nissin brakes, a 19in front wheel, backlit switchgear and a TFT dash as standard.
Westbrook continued: “The response at the ABR Festival has been genuinely overwhelming, with incredibly positive feedback. We will soon announce details of our first Kove Super Centre opening, where interested customers will be able to find out more and test ride the 800X Pro and 510X.
