Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha Tenere 700 2021

Yamaha Tenere 700 2021

The Tenere 700 is still unrivalled in 2022. It offers the best compromise between price, off-road capability and ride comfort on the road. It rides into the heart, is super fun and is a motorbike for a wide range of uses. Die-hard fans will forgive the lack of electronic features. The somewhat lax brakes and the annoying fuel cap probably won't.

Very robust and reliable appearance

sporty and sleek look

playful handling

Amazingly sporty and fun engine

Good workmanship

Good chassis with a practical adjustment range

Comparatively low weight

Very tough

ABS can be switched off

Very off-road capable.

Lack of seating comfort on longer tours

brakes seem a bit cheap - lax pressure point and poor braking performance

vibrating display is annoying

fuel filler cap impractical

very short equipment list in terms of electronics.
