CFMoto 700MT Review

Used Buyer Review

The 700MT is CFMoto's most credible attempt at cracking the middleweight adventure-touring segment, and honestly, it gets more right than wrong. The parallel twin pulls cleanly from low revs, the TFT display is genuinely good, and the Brembo-adjacent braking setup inspires real confidence. For the used money — we're talking significantly less than a comparable Tracer 7 or Versys 650 — it's a compelling package that doesn't feel like a compromise until you start probing the edges. Where it falls short is refinement. The gearbox is notchy when cold, wind protection is mediocre despite the tall screen, and some early examples had questionable dealer support when things went wrong. Check the service history religiously — these engines need proper oil intervals respected. Suspension is adequate but nothing more; if you're loaded up with luggage on motorways, it gets floaty. Buy with your eyes open and it's a genuinely usable motorcycle at an honest price. Expect European standards and you'll be disappointed.
