Yamaha Tenere 700 World Raid 2023

Yamaha Tenere 700 World Raid 2023

Robust, well-balanced and user-friendly - that's how the Yamaha Ténéré 700 World Raid can be described after the Bosnia Rally. If you want to, you can conquer tough terrain with it. But those who don't have to cover long distances will prefer the lightness of the standard T7. The World Raid's wide tank is noticeable in its ergonomics and handling. The soft chassis, on the other hand, copes well with hard terrain and thanks to the steering damper, the bike remains very stable even on dirt roads that are flown over quickly. The complicated ABS deactivation procedure is annoying in the long run. one would like to see a simple "off" button. The bottom line is that the World Raid, in keeping with its name, appeals especially to globetrotters and is very well thought out in this respect with a long range and a lot of off-road comfort.

High-torque, finely controllable engine

Good ergonomics

Long range

Powerful chassis with plenty of reserves

Tank gets in the way on steep uphill sections

brakes could do with more bite on the road

ticklish rotary wheel and ABS deactivation tedious in the long run

The BMW R 1250 GS is the logical further development of the R 1200 GS - logical above all because one should not expect such a popular motorbike to be radically changed. Accordingly, the design has been changed cautiously, and the familiar options for the chassis and electronics have been retained. The new name R 1250 GS, however, promises a new engine - and it really is something! 136 hp at 7750 rpm and a whopping 143 Newton metres of maximum torque at 6250 rpm are an absolute blast! BMW has thus renovated the big GS almost perfectly: it remains clearly recognisable, has a little more electronics as standard, a still long list of surcharges (which customers like to tick from A to Z) and a now even better and more sovereign power plant - what more could you want?!

extremely high-torque boxer engine

good sound

comfortable seating position, suitable for long distances

stable braking performance

good weather protection

colour TFT display standard

LED headlights

Manageable standard equipment, long surcharge list

jagged appearance with little elegance
