CFMoto's Chinese-made adventure tourer '800MT-ES' has arrived in the UK. Equipped with electronic suspension, radar, Bosch rider-assist tech, and touring comfort features, it's priced at £8,499-£8,698 in the UK — a price that's drawing attention for being remarkably low given the equipment level.

Electronically controlled suspension, radar, even Bosch rider-assist systems, all for around £8,500 in the UK — this gap between spec and price, I genuinely double-checked the sheet when I saw it. High-end ADV equipment has suddenly dropped into an accessible price bracket. I get the feeling the old balance of power is about to be rewritten.

What exactly is the radar detecting? Vehicles approaching from behind?

Right, the mainstream type detects vehicles approaching from behind and gives a blind-spot warning.

I wonder what it'll cost if it launches domestically — with this equipment, I wouldn't be shocked even at 600,000 yen.

Radar boosting safety during long-distance touring is a genuinely welcome bit of equipment.

CFMoto's really come this far, huh. Just a few years ago they were nothing but cheap.

With electronic suspension and radar packed in at this price, they must be cutting costs somewhere — wonder about the durability.

8,499 pounds is an eye-catching number, but comparing it straight across exchange rates and local prices doesn't mean much, worth being careful there.

This much equipment at this price is genuinely a threat to BMW's and Ducati's ADV lineups.
