2024 CFMOTO 450MT Review | Is this CFMOTO’s magnum opus?
Рет қаралды 26,879
Күн бұрынThe CFMOTO 450MT arrives on Australian shores with a bargain price tag of just $9490 ride away.
Competing with the similarly priced Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, the 450MT is proving to be a big seller for the quickly growing CFMOTO brand.
It is powered by a 449cc parallel-twin motor and features fully adjustable KYB suspension, plus many components designed to improve off-road use.
But how good is the 450MT really? Does it serve its purpose as a rugged and capable dual-sport adventure bike? We headed towards Lake Eildon to see what it’s all about. Ahh, the serenity.

Hi Bikesales. Aussie 450MT owner here. The rear wheel is 18 inches, not 17. You're welcome.

Hey Hvntr, yep, unfortunately we stated the wrong number and published the video before we realized the mistake! Technology, huh? However, you can find all the correct specs in the full review at bikesales.com.au.

This bike is everyone's dream bike now. The real question is, why didn't Kawasaki make a KLR500 twin cylinder, or Honda make an XL350 twin? Why didn't Suzuki make a DRZ400 twin? Why did Japan insist on giving people horrendously boring "single cylinder" enduros and trail bikes, whilst putting titanium valves, 4 cylinders and 197 horsepower in their flagship streetbikes? People have been wanting something new and different---something that actually sounds good when you revv it up. FINALLY CF Moto did it!

@@MudaholicJR i mean those dull-sounding twins from the Ninja 500 and CBR500R, as compared to CFMotos 449 with 270° crankshaft that make it sound bigger than its actual displacement

I wish the 450mt was in the USA already. I'm looking at used bikes because the only way for me to afford a bike this good is to build it myself.

It's be confirmed stateside come next year. Hold off and keep saving up.

@@ryancompton3515 That would be good advice for most people in my position but I'm not willing to wait that long. If I could buy a 450mt right now I would be out riding tomorrow but I would still modify it sooner than later. Everything I own has a swapped engine or suspension. As it stands I'm looking at a used NC750x as a base then parting out a salvage CRF1000 Africa Twin for its suspension and brakes. I'll probably be $8,000 into when I'm done but I'll have 55hp, 70mpg, +9" travel/clearance, 21"/18" wheels, 480lbs but the lowest cog possible, and a very reliable package.

The seat you have in video is a taller option, so seating is at 870 instead of 820 with basic seat.
@bikesaleschannel Ай бұрын
Hi @rhumorsky4055, some of the units at the launch (which are seen in the video) were fitted with the taller seat, but we personally tested the version with the 820mm seat, which is the standard seat height.

Can we just stop talking about the tyres on a bike...unless you cannot ever change the tyre to your own desires, stop talking about the bikes tyres off road.

@@MrKdr500 See our repsonse to fanjan7527. A lot of people will want to know if the standard tyres are decent or not. Not everyone will want to (or can afford to) replace the tyres.

@fanjan7527 unfortunately replacing tyres costs money, and not everyone wants to fork out the extra $$$. And if the standard tyres are good, then why replace them? So, talking about the standard tyres is important!

Trails, don't you mean dirt road , your being just a bit dishonest
@bikesaleschannel 15 күн бұрын
Not at all mate. Everyone has a different definition of what a "trail" is, but ours (and most in the industry) includes 4WD tracks and firetrails - plenty of which we utilised on our test of the 450MT. We never mentioned single track, which I assume you are talking about. And I think most people understand dual-sport bikes are not designed for single track anyway. Hope that makes things a little clearer for you!
