It doesn't seem to matter what badge your bike wears or what niche it's in, CFMoto is coming for it. This time, the 2026 CFMoto 800MT ES is coming for every upper-middleweight adventure touring bike out there. We already know the outgoing 800MT can hang with the best models in this category, but now, CFMoto is adding something to the mix that very few bikes in this niche have—electronically adjustable suspension.
There's already an 800MT Touring model, which is similarly specked out to the ES, but instead of the regular USD KYB front forks, the ES comes with semi-active forks, developed in partnership with KYB. Just like on the Touring variant, the front suspension provides 160mm of travel, while the rear monoshock is good for 150mm. Unlike the Touring version, the ES model adapts to the road irregularities, load, and riding style in real time.
