Pros and Cons in comparison
Aprilia Tuareg 660 2026
The Aprilia Tuareg 660 is an extremely smooth-running adventure bike. This applies to the linear revving engine, the fine clutch and the low weight of the Italian. It scores particularly well off-road. At the Bosnia Rally, it was able to take on almost everything and was even convincing in crisp off-road terrain. Small weak points, such as an engine that dies too quickly and a screw on the gear lever that is in danger of breaking, can hardly spoil the fun on it. With its powerful travel, the lightweight is interesting for all adventure bike riders who have off-road ambitions but want more electronics than in the purist Yamaha Tenere.
Yamaha Tenere 700 2026
In 2025, the Tenere 700 features ride-by-wire, traction control and riding modes for the first time. Strictly speaking, it may have lost some of its unique selling point in the travel enduro market, its purist approach, but this does little to change its character. It is still the versatile, robust adventure bike that feels at home on loose surfaces and also cuts a fine figure on the tarmac. If the new electronic features are not a reason for increased interest in the new T7, then perhaps the many improvements in detail based on customer feedback are. A fixed tank cap, offset clutch cable mount, reinforced rear end and adapted fairings may not sound like much, but in practice they make the Tenere package more pleasant and practical than ever before.
