We've covered CFMoto's 1000 MT-X tasty spec sheet here at RideApart already, and I was lucky enough to see a few in the flesh at EICMA. I knew at the time that whenever these bikes were officially introduced to markets, they'd disrupt them due to almost unbeatable pricing. Don't get me wrong, plenty of CFMoto products are cheaper than the competition, but customers still opt for bikes they regard as better; however, the MT-X (Ibex) lineup is competing well in terms of price and performance, and the 1000 MT-X is no exception.
It was recently announced that the 1000 MT-X will arrive in Germany in the spring and cost just €9,999 ($11,764). As you'd expect from a CFMoto, this price puts it in a category ahead of its competition. In fact, the 1000 MT-X will be cheaper than most of the adventure motorcycles that are a class below it.
One of the most popular bikes in the class is Yamaha's Ténéré 700, which costs €12,599 in Germany. Aprilia's Tuareg 660 will set you back between €11,000 to €12,500, and if you want to grab a bargain in this class, it would've been the Suzuki V-Strom 800 for €10,390. We know that the 1000 MT-X will take from the aforementioned brands' customer base, but it could be far more deadly to competitors' offerings in the tier above.
