Yamaha Tenere 700 World Raid 2026

Yamaha Tenere 700 World Raid 2026

If you want to, you can also conquer challenging off-road terrain with it. However, those who don't have to cover long distances will yet prefer the lightness of the standard T7. The World Raid's wide tank is noticeable in its ergonomics and handling. The high-quality suspension, on the other hand, copes well with tough off-road passages and, thanks to the steering damper, the bike remains very stable even on fast dirt tracks. 6-axle IMU and Ride-by-Wire also allow the integration of cornering ABS, drift and lean angle-sensitive traction control on the Ténéré long-distance flagship. However, the quickshifter must be paid for separately. The bottom line is that, in keeping with its name, the World Raid is aimed particularly at world travellers and is very well thought out in this respect with a wide range and plenty of off-road comfort, yet not quite as comfortable as other touring enduros with a stronger focus on asphalt.

Stable riding performance

Very robust overall impression

Very reliable

Very tough

strong traction

superior suspension offers a width range of use

very practical

Equipped with modern Advanced Rider Assistance Systems

Cruise control as standard

The great price/performance ratio of the Tenere was somewhat lost in the form of the World Raid

the wide tank reduces freedom of movement

Quickshifter only for an extra charge

no bolted rear frame, no bolted rear silencer attachment

manageable comfort and wind protection on tarmac, not very suitable for pillion riders

CFMOTO 800MT-X 2026

CFMOTO 800MT-X 2026

The CFMOTO 800 MT-X surprises with a cultivated engine, a lot of control in the suspension and handling that seems far lighter than the data would suggest thanks to its low centre of gravity. In practice, it rides in a balanced, confidence-inspiring manner and offers a lot of features for the money. Minor weaknesses in the electronic logic, the operating quality and the lack of torque in the centre remain, but do little to change the strong overall impression. All in all, it is an honest, versatile adventure bike that does not quite reach premium level, but is a real and serious alternative in terms of price and riding experience.

Excellent value for money

Fully adjustable suspension

Cultivated LC8c twin cylinder with strong lower and upper rev range

Surprisingly agile handling thanks to low tank and centre of gravity

Modern features as standard, where you have to pay extra for premium brands: Quickshifter, tyre pressure sensors, Motion Alert, Find My function

Noticeable rev gap between 5000-7000 rpm

switch quality and feel below premium level

cruise control cannot be deactivated by throttle reversal

navigation integration via the app cumbersome
