CFMOTO's 800MT Explore is the highest spec of the MT adventure tourer range which includes the Touring and Limited Edition models.
At a rideaway price of $16,490 (AU), it packs more tech than any other offering under $20,000 and an undeniably enticing value proposition.
Has CFMOTO perfected the MT formula with the Explore or have they made it unnecessarily complicated?
Do the new standard offerings elevate it beyond the Touring model enough to justify the higher price?
We take a deep dive into all aspects of the 800MT Explore and find a bike that's not without its flaws, but has a lot to offer a wide range of riders.
