Yamaha Tenere 700 Extreme Edition 2024

The Ténéré 700 Extreme replaces the "Rally" model variation and scores with even more off-road capability. Brutal KYB spring components with 230 millimetre front and 220 millimetre rear suspension unleash their full power off-road and promise uncompromising rides even on single trails and demanding tracks. The off-road-optimised titanium footrests provide perfect grip on off-road terrain.

Suspension at its best

Cool look thanks to high mudguard

Titanium footrests for better grip

Enormous ground clearance

Very high riding position

ergonomics take some getting used to when cornering

splash protection slightly worse due to high mudguard
