Yamaha Tenere 700 Explore Edition 2024

The addition of the Ténéré Explore to the model family makes the adventure bike with cult status accessible to a whole new interest group. The shorter travel compared to the other Ténéré 700 models lowers the seat height to 860 millimetres. This results in a more secure stance both off-road and in urban environments. The Explore is made for Ténéré fans who are mainly travelling on asphalt roads.

Quickshifter (Up) on board as standard

pannier rack included ex works

accessible for smaller Ténéré fans, comfort on longer tours

Less travel for off-road

Quickshifter (Down) not yet possible due to missing Ride-by-Wire
