In terms of strengths, both models have a proven drive and excellent controllability. They also have a clean finish and a good serviceability. The World Raid 2022 has the additional strengths of a superb chassis, an extensive range of accessories, an appealing price-performance ratio, and well thought-out detail solutions.

In terms of weaknesses, the World Raid 2022 has a larger fuel tank capacity of 23 liters, which may not be suitable for everyone. The braking performance at sporty road speeds may also be a weakness. Additionally, the World Raid 2022 would benefit from cruise control for bridging stages, and the ABS adjustment is tedious. The 2020 model has the weakness of having few electronics for road trips and the seat could become uncomfortable on long journeys.

Overall, both the Yamaha Tenere 700 World Raid 2022 and the Yamaha Tenere 700 2020 are powerful and capable enduro motorcycles with their own strengths and weaknesses.

Yamaha Tenere 700 World Raid 2022

Yamaha Tenere 700 World Raid 2022

The World Raid is a successful addition to the Ténéré 700 model range. Until now, it was up to the real enthusiasts themselves to improve the off-road suitability. With the World Raid, Yamaha is now putting a ready-made version for long (desert) tours into the showrooms of the dealers. Even if the full 500 kilometre range is rarely needed in practice, this model is especially worthwhile because of its fine chassis components. On the road, the World Raid is less rocky; off-road, the enormous reserve provided by the fully adjustable KYB hardware is convincing. The response is at an absolute top level. The standard Öhlins steering damper also brings calm to the front. In addition to subtle model updates, such as the colour display, smartphone connectivity or new controls, the World Raid continues to shine with familiar Ténéré qualities. After our test, we say: Sometimes less is still more. It knows how to please!

Compared to the sporty single-cylinder competition from KTM or Husqvarna, which you first have to make suitable for touring with a windshield, larger tank, etc., the Twin offers a smoother ride and thus better long-distance capability, and compared to most two-cylinder competitors, with the exception of KTM's 890 Adventure R, it offers more off-road capability. In any case, the Tenere 700 has become a real enrichment for the touring enduro segment, so it was worth the wait.
