Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha Tenere 700 2021

Yamaha Tenere 700 2021

The Tenere 700 is still unrivalled in 2022. It offers the best compromise between price, off-road capability and ride comfort on the road. It rides into the heart, is super fun and is a motorbike for a wide range of uses. Die-hard fans will forgive the lack of electronic features. The somewhat lax brakes and the annoying fuel cap probably won't.
