Yamaha Tenere 700 2023

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.

The GS also impressed us with its versatility during the test in November 2021. We rode the bike on a wide variety of terrain and were once again very satisfied. The motorbike convinces in every situation with its easy handling and practicality. On the other hand, it can also be ridden delightfully irrationally.
