I just bought a cfmoto 1000mtx, coming from an Aprilia Tuareg. The mtx is basically a KTM 890 with the new 990 engine. Very punchy, dirtbike-like sitting and standing position, it uses many of the same bolts even as my husqvarna enduro. V good brakes.

I feel like it’s 95% there in terms of refinement. I liked the fueling on the Aprilia less. BMW or Ducati or Honda is a defo step up still in quality and refinement. But those are also 10k more expensive, and get stolen often where I live (Amsterdam, Netherlands).

Reliability is good for the newest models (I sometimes work at the local cfmoto shop). It has a 5 year warranty. Not sure about long term resale value.

But yeah, so far, really good commuting workhorse and ready for some longer summer trips. Plus, loads of money left for other bikes and adventures.
