Pros and Cons in comparison
Yamaha Tenere 700 2023
The Yamaha Tenere 700 is an adventure bike that performs brilliantly, especially in the second part of its category. The Japanese bike is a force off-road. But it also functions satisfactorily as a touring vehicle. The chassis is comfortable enough, the wind protection is there. The seat is a little too spartan, but the engine is ideally suited for long journeys. The Tenere offers sufficient space and power for two, and the chassis also has enough reserves for the additional load. However, the brakes are overtaxed by the additional weight in some riding situations. However, as long as you don't leave the cosy touring mode, the Yamaha Tenere 700 also makes two people happy.
KTM 690 SMC R 2019
If you want to experience unfiltered supermoto joy on the road, the KTM 690 SMC R is the only choice. The LC4 has been greatly cultivated in the meantime, but still brings the virtues you expect from a single-cylinder. Various riding aids can also be activated on choice, but these are not a must! Thanks to its low weight, it can also be thrown through the bends like a bicycle and - if you can - playfully carried to the rear wheel. The only thing that KTM could perhaps do with a makeover is the displays, because they quickly give the impression that we are still in the 90s. However, real supermoto fans will certainly not tear their hair out over this.
