Introducing the 800MT EXPLORE – the ultimate expression of CFMOTO's Multifunctional Touring Range

Ergonomics

As the flagship in the CFMOTO MT range, the CFMOTO 800MT EXPLORE exudes a commanding, yet purposeful presence. With a seat height of 825 mm, it offers an elevated position that inspires confidence on and off the road.

Engine

Experience the heart and soul of the CFMOTO 800MT EXPLORE, where the exceptional 799cc parallel-twin engine delivers optimized torque for impressive performance. Effortless gear changes are facilitated by the Power Assisted Slipper Clutch (PASC) and Bi-directional Quickshifter, enhancing the speed and overall riding experience. Renowned from other 800MT models, this engine with its 799cc capacity generates 67 kW at 9250 rpm and 75 Nm of torque at 8000 rpm.

Chassis, Brakes, and Suspension

On the handling front, the CFMOTO 800MT EXPLORE doesn't disappoint either, thanks to a high-strength, lightweight chromium-molybdenum alloy steel frame, and a subframe that weighs only 16 kg. Combined with an aluminum swingarm for optimized rigidity and stability, fully-adjustable 43 mm KYB upside-down front forks, and KYB rear shock, the motorcycle provides a compliant and controlled ride on all road conditions.

Equipped with Michelin Anakee tires, specifically the Michelin Functional Vacuum tires with sizes 110/80 R19 in the front and 150/70 R17 in the rear, the CFMOTO 800MT EXPLORE ensures exceptional grip and traction, inspiring confidence in any terrain.

Weighing in at 225 kg, the CFMOTO 800MT EXPLORE strikes a balance between robustness and maneuverability. When it comes to slowing down, the ABS-assisted J.Juan 4-piston radial-mount calipers are paired with dual 320mm floating discs up front, while a twin-piston J.Juan caliper is paired with a single 260mm disc on the rear, providing extreme stopping power and ensuring confident braking performance.

Rider Aids

Beneath its powerful exterior, the CFMOTO 800MT EXPLORE sets itself apart with a range of class-leading technological advancements. This exceptional motorcycle is equipped with C-ABS (Combined Anti-lock Braking System) that enhances braking performance and safety on various road surfaces. Additionally, it features advanced traction control and electronic stability control systems that provide riders with optimal control and stability, even in challenging riding conditions.

Notably, the EXPLORE also boasts innovative rearward-facing radar technology known as the Behind Radar System (BRS). This cutting-edge feature, combined with Blind Spot Detection (BSD), Lane Change Assist (LCA), and Rear Collision Warning (RCW), ensures enhanced situational awareness and rider confidence, particularly during long-distance journeys. With these advanced safety features, the CFMOTO 800MT EXPLORE offers riders added peace of mind and a truly elevated adventure experience.

Connectivity and Riding Experience

Upfront, a new waterproof 8-inch Multi-Media Interface (MMI) display greets the rider, featuring Apple CarPlay, which provides smartphone and Bluetooth connectivity, voice control, navigation, and music library functionality.

Here, riders can access six different Ride Modes, each offering a unique combination of torque output and traction control intervention to suit varying road conditions, abilities, and preferred riding styles.

SPORT mode provides the sharpest throttle response and maximum torque output with a low level of traction control intervention for street riding, while OFF-ROAD mode provides a softer throttle response and maximum rear wheel slip with the lowest level of traction control for maximum offroad control.

Further to this, the 800MT EXPLORE also features a ALL TERRAIN mode, which provide a softer throttle response than OFF-ROAD with no TC intervention, and no ABS, with a RAIN mode providing the softest throttle response and the gentlest power curve and the highest level of traction control for wet and slippery conditions.

Riders also have the ability to toggle the heated seat and heated grips, each offering three levels of warmth and being easily adjustable on the fly, along with accessing cruise control. A convenient USB port cluster and a 12 V socket are included for charging devices, including smartphones.
