Yamaha Tenere 700 2020

Yamaha Tenere 700 2020

Compared to the sporty single-cylinder competition from KTM or Husqvarna, which you first have to make suitable for touring with a windshield, larger tank, etc., the Twin offers a smoother ride and thus better long-distance capability, and compared to most two-cylinder competitors, with the exception of KTM's 890 Adventure R, it offers more off-road capability. In any case, the Tenere 700 has become a real enrichment for the touring enduro segment, so it was worth the wait.
