Do you drive a CFMOTO MT<\/strong> - Whether that is the agile 450MT<\/strong>, the all-rounder 700MT<\/strong>, the advanced 800MT<\/strong> Whether the new 800MT-X<\/strong> is - then pay attention now. The engine is already pedalling, because this is your<\/em> chance to show what you and your MT have to offer.<\/p>\n The world final will take place in October in faraway Melbourne<\/strong>, Australia. But first: Bilstain<\/strong>. Not just any location, but THE enduro paradise in the Belgian Ardennes. That is where it all starts. That is where the cards are shuffled. And maybe also your ticket to the world top.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The setup is simple: The organisation selects the best - and believe us, only 150 spots are available<\/strong>. Whether you come to push the limits of your CFMOTO MT or to just rock the vibes: you want to be here.<\/p>\n The CFMOTO MT Challenge Benelux is a qualifying competition in which riders put their skills, control and endurance on their MT-series motorbike to the test. Over two days, participants take part in a mix of technical challenges and short off-road rides, designed to mimic real adventure conditions.<\/p>\n The MT Challenge combines strength, technique, endurance and teamwork. Want to increase your chances of qualifying for the finals? Then train especially in the following components:<\/p>\n Practise slow driving (slalom, figure-8, balance beam). Work on accurate clutch, brake and throttle control on asphalt as well as dirt. Train tight U-turns and pivot-turns on uneven terrain.<\/p>\n Emergency stop exercises: accelerate full throttle and stop exactly at a marker. Combine front and rear brakes without locking up. Change surfaces (asphalt, gravel, mud).<\/p>\n Learn to stand your bike upright safely (with legs, not back). Push your bike (engine off) through a short course to build fitness. General fitness: squats, core training and cardio for more endurance.<\/p>\n Train with other riders in bike recovery (river crossing, pushing, helping a teammate). Practise basic mechanics such as changing a wheel or tightening a chain under time pressure.<\/p>\n Practise driving slowly without a foot on the ground. Train your focus under pressure: combine technical exercises with a distraction (e.g. bringing an object). Tip: Riders who prepare widely on technique, recovery, fitness and teamwork stand the best chance of qualifying and advancing to the Grand Finale in Melbourne, Australia (14-17 October 2025).<\/strong><\/p>\n \ud83c\udfc6 The final winner of the CFMOTO MT Challenge 2025 will be revealed on 6 November 2025 during EICMA in Italy.<\/strong><\/p>\nRide.
