Review CFMOTO 800MT-X LS Specifications, Features & Colours Available at CFMOTO Tauranga
Built for Adventure, Now More Accessible
Introducing the 800MT-X LS – the same rugged DNA and off-road capability as the standard 800MT-X, now with a more accessible low-seat configuration. Designed for riders who prefer a lower seat height for greater confidence and control, the 800MT-X LS retains all the features that make this bike a true adventure weapon – just re-engineered for a better fit. Whether you're a shorter rider or simply value surefooted handling on technical terrain, the 800MT-X LS opens up the world of adventure riding like never before.
DIFFERENCES FROM STANDARD MODEL
While the core specifications and off-road performance of the 800MT-X LS remain identical to the standard 800MT-X, the LS model features a lower seat height to improve accessibility and confidence for a broader range of riders.
Here’s what sets the LS model apart:
- Lowered Seat Height: Reduced from 870mm (standard) to 830mm for enhanced rider reach and stability when stopped or paddling through rough terrain.
- Revised Suspension Setup: The suspension has been carefully tuned with a lower ride height (reduced travel from 230mm to 190mm) while maintaining balanced off-road capability and comfort.
- Same Adventure-Ready Equipment: Despite the lower stance, the LS retains all premium components including fully adjustable suspension, J.Juan brakes, a steel trellis frame, aluminium subframe, off-road wheels, and the full suite of electronics.
- No Compromise on Performance: The 800MT-X LS features the same powerful 799cc parallel twin engine, 21-inch front / 18-inch rear wheel combo, and rally-ready design as the standard model.
PROVEN PERFORMANCE
The 800MT-X features an updated version of the KTM-derived LC8c 799cc parallel twin engine, optimised by CFMOTO for adventure riding with more torque and refined performance:
- 87Nm @ 6750rpm: 11Nm more than previous iterations, with peak torque shifted lower in the rev range.
- 70kW/95hp @ 8500rpm: Retained power for strong mid-to-high RPM performance.
- Equipped with twin balancer shafts for minimal vibration, enhanced electronic fuel injection, and DLC noise-reducing coating technologies.
ENHANCED FOR OFF-ROAD ADVENTURES
The 800MT-X LS is built for rugged terrain and long-distance travel. Lightweight yet durable, it offers superior stability and handling:
- 21”/18” spoked aluminium rims with tubeless adventure tyres.
- 200mm ground clearance and adjusted rake/trail for balanced road and off-road performance.
- 15.1kg lightweight frame and sub-frame designed for carrying passengers and luggage.
