I have a new 2021 MT and have to say in the UK it's really giving the other brands a run if it's money. I've had my bike just over 3 months and adore it . And I ride it in all conditions. And the MT handles them all. Better than others brands. For less then £5,500 with a 4 year no questions asked warranty which also covers the panniers. It's a game changer. It rides like and dream . Worth every penny and really worth considering. The only I don't like as stated the light reflection on the screen at night
I always follow your english material with pleasure, and I find especially useful the tips that you provide in the Rider Techniques series, sharing your knowledge in the field is much appreciated. Regarding the LI 9H 7 indication, I looked into that myself, as an owner of a CFMOTO 650MT (which I find is a very compelling choice for any rider looking for a richly equipped, reliable and affordable touring motorcycle, with extensive warranty period - 5 years in my case). As another follower mentioned, LI stands for (Back)light illumination of the display, 9H seems to be an indication of the hardness of the tempered glass used for the display (on the Moh scale of mineral hardness) and 7 is the actual level of backlight illumination (there are 7 levels in total, 7 being the highest illumination).
Qué me cuenta? Yo la verdad quiero la 450MT, pero es muy nueva, tengo una Versys 300 y esa 450 se ve como una moto superior en todo sentido y por casi el mismo precio, pero la 650 MT es 1.000$ más barata, y ya casi no ando en tierra. Le tengo un par de preguntas, si es muy amable de darme los datos, cuánto gasta esta moto en combustible? La versys 300 anda alrededor de 25km por cada litro, socándola un poquito, la CB500X anda como 30 a 33, gasta menos, si esa MT650 usa gasolina similar a la Versys 300, me estaría tentando a subir a 650 y no irme por la 450.
I like your style of testing motorbikes pretty much. Good overview from different perspective, competent and detailed. Go ahead this way and all the best for your channel. Coffee is on the way👍
I knew someone who rode from China to England on a CFMoto a long time ago. Very reliable motorbikes. The scaffolding crash bars are over the top on the MT. I don't like the screen, either. Attractive headlight. Nice-looking bike, overall. I sat on an NK and was disappointed to find the seat too short. I am looking forward to seeing the 700 CL-X in the flesh. Interesting glasses.
I just my 7th brand new kawasaki KLR... I've owned a lot of bikes over the years and found the klr one of the most durable and best bangs for the buck...I bought the adventure model...Now fuel injected with a few other upgrades for 2022...Something to consider..
Well even the Price Is very nice, I've decided to buy new Honda CB500X MY2022 for several Reasons over this bike, the Fuel consumption Is one of them for example.
OnboarddotBike thanks for the review. I noticed that your head shape is ROUND OVAL just like mine, do you have any problems with finding good fitting helmets? 90% of helmets in the market are the so called INTERMEDIATE OVAL shell shape. I noticed that the only 2 brands that manufacture ROUND OVAL helmets are GMAX and SHARK! If possible can you make a video on this subject?
im from greece have 2021 model euro 5 version without any modification (ok i changed spark plugs because the orignal one was crap) on dyno it produce 62 hp (tested 2 times) so... from bike to bike difference is ~2hp
I'm really torn between the Honda CB500 X and the CF MOTO 650 MT... they look really similar on paper, but the 650 MT comes with a lot more kit for less money, while the 500X has a sensibly better fuel consumption and has longer service intervals. Which one to choose???
I went with the 650MT of 2021 and it's great. I have been watching it for more than a year and when I wanted to buy it, it was out of stock. Only a NK available at that time, so I ordered the MT and I was told I had to wait 6 months. In a week and a half, I got a phone call that one arrived at the store and got it. Overall quality is good and I have no issues with it. It does what's meant to do. 🙂

I'm from Costa Rica, and I already bought one a couple of days ago, I'm looking forward to doing my first ride. Thanks for the explanation.
Do you like it after 5 months? I bought one last Friday and will receive it in couple of weeks.

Hi! Nice review. Just a few things. J Juan is actually spanish, and now is property of Brembo. And according to the specs the engine delivers 60hp.
Euro 5 version is unfortunately 41,5 kw which is equal to 55,65 (by rounding 56 hp).

still considering getting this bike. thank you for your review
10:50 LI GH 7 is light. Than you can dim the dashboard or make it more lightup.
On the dash L 9 is the backlight on the dash . Can changed on dash from low 1 - 9 high
Thanks!!! :-)
Very knowledgeable review. So many reviews you can tell the reviewers haven’t done their homework.
I love this bike! Greetings fron Greece!

You cannot buy KLR in Europe…

Excellent review in English from Hungary!✅👌⭐️
Hello sir great review we are now getting these bikes in New Zealand, in your opinion which is better, the Bellini TKR or CFmoto 650MT?
Did you mean Benelli TRK 502?
Hi I enjoyed your video. Just curious about your glasses? Are they special for helmet use.. Where do you get them?
I was wondering the same thing.
In Poland its rated as 45Kw so 62 Horsepower not 52 as you say
He said 56 and it is Euro 5 version which produces 41,5 kw and that equals to 56 hp.
Well even the Price Is very nice, I've decided to buy new Honda CB500X MY2022 for several Reasons over this bike, the Fuel consumption Is one of them for example.
Same here. Also cbx is a keeper.

For me Nolans, Schuberths, BMW Enduro helmet are all good.
In greece the euro 5 models on paper has 61hp and they dynoed it to 59hp to the wheel. I dont know why in hungary it is so weak.

I am in the same position this week. Cant decide ... I am begginer so I am not sure if 650 is ok for me.
how tall are you?
thank you for wearing an airbag
Si vende la pellicola oscurata per il display su Aliexpress ciao
I thought it's a 2 cylinder twin??!?
That incessant background music spoiled the review. Less is more.
What is the brand of glass u r using?
Flywear. You can find the demo videos here on the channel. www.flyweargroup.com
as always looks good but will probably rust in no time compaired tp the big 4 Japanese nice looking thou
They don't rust any quicker than Japanese bikes. Ditto Benelli.
I have 2021 MT 650 and no rust no issues fantastic quality
2018 MT - no rust.
@Michael Parkinson I had Benelli BN251 2017. And after 3 years there was some rust here And there.
WD- 40 spray it on any potential rust spots ….but not on rubber or disc brakes .
Touch up any worn paint spots with paint …simple .
Poor sound quality mate, it is crucial for such kind of YT channel.
Very bad buy. Many problems. No parts
