Conclusion - what sticks
The CF Moto 800 MT enriches the adventure bike segment with a motorcycle that is particularly interesting in terms of price. The equipment is great and CF Moto uses proven components from J. Juan, KTM, Acront and Kayaba. Not a bad recipe, but the Chinese are messing up when it comes to tuning the engine and QuickShifter. However, we assume that this shortcoming can be fixed by software update - and then the MT800 is a really attractive offer!Many thanks to the CF-MOTO dealer "Powersport Nord" from Pinneberg, who kindly provided us with the machine for this test. You can also test ride the 800 MT there, but please make an appointment beforehand - just call: Tel. 04101-590 575. Greetings to Jörg and Vivian!
Conclusion - what sticks
Wonderful, this Norden 901. Husqvarna has delivered, namely a travel enduro that feels comfortable not only on the flat road, but also off-road. Also visually, the Husky stands out pleasantly from other machines of similar caliber. It is not too fat and not too thin, has a lot of power and sounds good. What more could you ask for?In addition, the remarkable accessibility of the motorcycle, which also accommodates less experienced bikers. We are sure that this bike will sell well and rightly so. If you have tasted blood now, please go to Heller & Soltau for a test drive to St. Michaelisdonn. There the Norden 901 is ready for a test drive and there are beautiful country roads around the corner, where you can also drive the vehicle out.
