Meet the 2025 CFMoto Ibex 450 MT in Tundra Grey — a light, modern mid-weight ADV built for the way most of us actually ride: pavement to pea-gravel, town runs to day-long Hill Country loops. At ~2,661 miles she's fully broken in and dialed.
Why you'll love her:
- Parallel-twin 449cc with switchable ABS and traction control
- Long-travel suspension, 21"/18" wheels, tubeless spoked rims
- Comfortable all-day ergos — great for average-height riders
- Light enough for gravel and fire roads, torquey enough for fun
- Crash bars, fog lights, USB charging — ready for dawn starts and all-day nav
Where she shines: Hill Country twisties (RR 337, Willow City, Three Sisters), gravel and graded fire roads in Balcones Canyonlands / LBJ Grasslands, weekend camp-and-ride out to Big Bend, Davis Mountains, or Palo Duro, and daily-driver duty around Austin.
Questions before you book? Message me — I'm an Austin local, I ride this exact bike, and I'm happy to share route GPX files and pit-stop recs.
