- In this video the family and I go for a test ride on the 2024 CFMOTO 450MT
We are on the hunt to find a new bike for my mum to replace her her current KTM 690 and thought the CFMOTO 450MT, which has only recently hit the Australian market, could be her new dream bike!
We are by no means experts but just wanted to share our basic first impressions as we compare our current bikes to the 2024 CFMOTO 450MT.

Nothing better than a family playing together on motorcycles. 😃😃
Great review from some “real” normal riders rather than the usual “expert” rider.
Test rode this at a CFMoto even this Sunday. First time I've ever been on an Adventure bike. At 170cm I was able to get my feet down both sides. Not flat, but enough to be confident to take it for a spin. No off roading, but the bike felt pretty nice. I didn't really feel the weight. And I thought the throttle response was a little smoother than the 800. I don't know about modes and such. There was a bunch of CFMoto bikes to test ride freely and I tried them all. I'm not about to go buy an ADV bike anytime soon, but that test ride gave me a positive impression of the type of bike, and CFMoto's model specifically.
I've ridden all sorts of ADV bikes & my current bike is a 1200GS which I love.
I am a motorcycle instructor & students had been asking me about the 450MT, so I took one for a test ride, I liked it so much I surprised myself by buying one, the BMW is also staying btw 😊😊
I love how the whole family is into motorcycle ❤❤❤
Cheers!! 🍻 Nice to get a different POV. The 450MT is definitely great value for money. I have been resisting the urge to swap my Rally for one but just can’t get past the weight. Sure when riding it’s not so noticeable but drop it a few times off road and you’ll then notice its extra kgs. So I modded my Rally with SSS 301cc kit including stage 3 ECU. Whacked on a lighter free flowing exhaust and high flow air filter plus suspension upgrade. Now it’s got that extra mid to high range punch while still being light and nimble. Problem solved 😎
I am currently riding a cfmoto 300sr on my learners permit. They are a nice bike to ride at a cheaper price. Comfortable to ride for longer rides and not sore at the end. Plenty of power. Mine is slightly heavier than other competitors. But other than that I am happy with cfmoto.
Awesome bike indeed, It wouldn't surprise me if you guys get at least one of these. I loved doing a test ride on the 450, had a grin on my face the whole way!! I reckon you'll love it off road too!
Your dad should have laid it on it’s side and had you and your mom pick it up that would be the deciding factor to buy if you can’t lift it up buy yourself it would have to be a hard pass imo. The weight is the Achilles heel to that 450. I would definitely go back to the dealership and have them lay the bike down on cardboard and try to lift it you rather do it before you buy it then buy it and be sorry.
It has the weight, but it's all down low, so it's actually really easy to pick up.
Loving my 450MT, I've had it out on Enduro loops in the bush, some single track around the Sunny Coast. It's definitely a capable bike, even on the factory tyres with a bit of air out 👌
Cheers, David
CF moto ,have really hit the mark with this bike.
Definitely try it with the higher seat, it's more comfortable and definitely puts you in a better seated attack position.
I pre release ordered and expected to take some time to weigh up which I'd keep (the 450MT or Versys-X)... It didn't take long although I am yet to sell the Versys-X.
I have a bmw 1200GS. Problem is I’m 75 now and I’m looking for something smaller and lighter. The 450 T may be the answer.
perfect adv ,its light and has just the right amount of power to go on road and off road ,great review from none bias people ,cool family.
Light is relative. It weighs about the same as a Tuareg 660.
Re the forks on your mums bike drop the fork legs through the headset about 4 or 5mm, it will handle a bit better ye ride safe ye.
I have the 450MT and love it. I had to lower seat for y short legs but it's an awesome 1st adventure bike. Tyres are good on the road and on hard packed dirt/gravel but bad in muddy conditions and soft sand I believe. You wont regret buying one
I'm number 495 thumbs up, lets hear it for me!
I'm 70 years old, but could your family adopt me? As a Rally owner, I've been waiting for your review on the CF Moto. We are supposed to get them in the U.S. next month. Might have to try one.
Great review Rem. Look forward to seeing the decision
It's great having the opportunity to test out the cf450 moto! Definitely a good fit for light adventure riding and better road manners and lower centre of gravity to the ktm690!
I would also consider looking for a used crf300 rally with low milage and the couple of thousand dollars saved vs buying new could go into aftermarket accessories, custom suspension & seat concepts seat for added comfort!
Had mine here in Oz for the last few months. Pretty happy for the money.
I really like this, just reviewing on how the bikes make you feel.
Great review. I’m learning to ride on my crf 250l now. Really enjoying it off road. I have a deposit on the CF Motto here in the US. Not sure if I’ll be easy to move up by the time we get them. Enjoyed your video.
I'm used to heavier 1100 and 1200 cc bikes, but was surprised at how well the CFMoto 450 performs! Definitely on my "think about" list for next time!
Been looking at one for myself, I had a wr250r and want something that bit bigger. All been great reviews on them so far.
Cool! I had to google that bike, I've never heard of it before.
Nice review. It's definitely the all rounder, waiting on the shipment of the Tundra Grey I put a deposit on. It has way more value for money. Throw the Rhinowalk's on & go! 😎
Good video Rem🐕
Hi guys, been watching for a while now. The guard on the CF Moto is like a street bike guard so if you guys hit a real glugy mud section I have a feeling the mud will build up between the tire and guard. The rest of the bike looks rad.
They sell a high front guard for it if that were an issue
Good review 👍🏼
Told you it was a good bike 👌🏼
Hard to go back to a thumper after getting used to the low down torque of a 270 degree twin cylinder.
Comparing wet weights, the cfmoto is 20kg lighter than the ktm 890 adventure, 197kg vs 217kg.
The only thing that let's the c.f. moto bike down, is the front mud guard, it needs to higher off the front wheel.
There're two front mud guard variants for this bike
@@ShinzouWoSateSateSate awesome thanks👍
The 690 was never a good bike for your mum. The latest have twin balancers, smooths it out a fair bit. The 690 sale will pay for a MT450. Almost.
Go for a test ride on a RE Himalayan, be interested on your & mum-dads thoughts. Cheers.
People seem to gloss over the fact this bike is 430+lbs stock with no luggage or crash protection added to it. That's a lot of weight to pick up when you're loaded down in the bush. This ain't no light dual sport.
Remember folks the bike is 195kg with 90 per cent fuel tank full.
While this is true, it seems to carry the bulk of that weight down low and remains nimble 👍
True, but it feels lighter than the 300 Versys I had which is 20kg lighter. The weight is in the right place.
How would a bike be a girls bike? That makes little sense to me.
People associate certain cars with being owned by women rather than men but don’t worry about it. It’s a video title, it’s not a cutting edge statement that you have to adhere to. 😂

I have just purchased the 300 Rally. Collected it on Wednesday night. Was going to test ride a CFMoto but decided the Rally. I was previously riding a KLX150 and I've noticed a massive difference. need to build my confidence up on the bigger bike.
Such a pleasure to see moto family! Wish you a lot of great roads together! As for 450MT, it's a great choice. Very friendly, predictable and well capable off and on road bike. I've done already 9000km on that byke and it's great! For you Mom and Dad might be usefull to get a taller seat and handlebar risers. I have tham and it changed seating and standing position to more comfortable one. Also the taller seat is unbelievably soft :)
How was it at highway speeds?
Admittedly it doesn’t always work , but turning handlebar straight or even past straight away from sidestand side , can make getting the bike off the sidestand much easier ….on any bike .
Sometimes the wheel won’t allow itself to be turned , so it isn’t always feasible , but it works often .
I Never rode that bike.. i do Ride a 790. and I think I would never trade it for a 450mt
Similar weight, more power, better electronics, more aftermarket parts, better suspension etc
Obviously it is more expensive to buy one.. but I am sure it’s worth it.
But if I would change the bike.. I would go with way less weight.
Such as?
