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.

The BMW R 1250 GS is the logical further development of the R 1200 GS - logical above all because one should not expect such a popular motorbike to be radically changed. Accordingly, the design has been changed cautiously, and the familiar options for the chassis and electronics have been retained. The new name R 1250 GS, however, promises a new engine - and it really is something! 136 hp at 7750 rpm and a whopping 143 Newton metres of maximum torque at 6250 rpm are an absolute blast! BMW has thus renovated the big GS almost perfectly: it remains clearly recognisable, has a little more electronics as standard, a still long list of surcharges (which customers like to tick from A to Z) and a now even better and more sovereign power plant - what more could you want?!
