Yamaha Tenere 700 Rally Edition 2020

It's no secret that the Ténéré 700 impresses with its simple, solid design. With the special "Rally" model, the Japanese are upgrading the touring enduro, which is particularly popular with off-road fans, in precisely this direction. Dakar styling, robust protective elements and Akrapovic rear silencer really make a statement. Plus the familiar Ténéré virtues. Makes you want to go on a trip around the world.
CFMOTO 800MT 2022

If you look at the equipment list of the 800MT, especially the Touring version, you will be amazed at how much can be fitted as standard in a comparatively inexpensive mid-range touring enduro. The pannier system even scores with a smart lining for the panniers and top case. The chassis and brakes are good, the engine could be a little livelier and jerk less when cold, but overall the performance is good. However, the 800MT is by no means flawless. The technicians definitely need to improve the shift assistant and the menu navigation could be simpler. Visually, however, there is not much to complain about; the cooperation with Kiska-Design pays off!
