In a move that has piqued the interest of motorcycle enthusiasts, CFMoto is set to launch its 400GT, a new contender in the lightweight sportbike segment, in Australia during the last week of May. The Chinese motorcycle manufacturer’s latest offering will directly compete with the KTM RC 390, a popular sportbike in the Australian market.
The CFMoto 400GT is powered by a 400.4cc, twin-cylinder engine that produces a peak power output of 41.4 hp at 9,500 rpm and a maximum torque of 34.4 Nm at 7,650 rpm. The engine is mated to a six-speed gearbox, ensuring a smooth and engaging riding experience. Its performance figures are comparable to the KTM RC 390, which boasts a 373.2cc, single-cylinder engine that generates 43 hp and 37 Nm of torque.
The 400GT’s design features a sharp, aggressive look, with LED headlamps, a sculpted fuel tank, and an aerodynamic fairing. The motorcycle is equipped with KYB suspension components, J.Juan brake calipers, and CST tires, highlighting the quality of its build. The bike also boasts a full-color TFT display, providing riders with crucial information such as speed, RPM, fuel level, and more.
One of the key aspects that sets the CFMoto 400GT apart from the KTM RC 390 is its superior electronics package. The 400GT comes with dual-channel ABS, adjustable riding modes, and a quick-shifter, allowing riders to tailor the bike’s performance to their preferences and ensuring an engaging and dynamic experience on the road.
While the pricing of the CFMoto 400GT has not been officially announced, it is expected to be competitively priced, offering customers an attractive alternative to the KTM RC 390. The arrival of the 400GT in Australia is sure to stir up the lightweight sportbike segment, with its combination of performance, features, and attractive design.
The introduction of the CFMoto 400GT to the Australian market is part of the company’s ongoing expansion efforts. CFMoto has been focusing on increasing its global presence, and the Australian launch marks a significant milestone in its journey. As the 400GT prepares to take on the KTM RC 390, motorcycle enthusiasts in Australia can look forward to an exciting new option for their riding adventures.
